Abstract:
A method and an apparatus for a station (STA) to save power in a wireless local area network (WLAN) are provided. For this, the STA receives a MU PPDU (Multi-User Physical Protocol Data unit) comprising A-MPDU (Aggregated MAC Protocol Data Unit) from an AP (Access Point). The STA enters into a doze state until an end of the MU PPDU, when a receiver address of the A-MPDU is equal to the STA's address, and there is an indication indicating a start of EOF (End-Of-Frame) padding.
Abstract:
Disclosed are a method and an apparatus for retransmission in a wireless LAN. The method for retransmission in a wireless LAN may comprise the steps in which: an STA receives an RTS frame from an AP; the STA transmits a CTS frame to the AP in response to the RTS frame; the STA receives an initial data frame from the AP after transmitting the CTS frame; if decoding on the initial data frame is impossible, the STA transmits a retransmission request frame to the AP; and the STA receives a retransmission data frame from the AP in response to the retransmission request frame.
Abstract:
A method and an apparatus for accessing a channel are disclosed. The method of an STA accessing a channel may comprise the steps of: and STA that is operable in a power-saving mode switching from a sleep state to an active state during a beacon interval; the STA monitoring a channel access parameter frame after being switched to the active state; the STA receiving the channel access parameter frame from an AP, wherein the channel access parameter frame includes EDCA set determining information; and the STA accessing a channel using an EDCA parameter determined on the basis of the EDCA set determining information, wherein the channel access parameter frame can be transmitted at least once between beacon intervals.
Abstract:
One embodiment of the present invention, in a method for enabling a station (STA) to perform an access to a medium in a wireless communication system, is a method for performing an access, comprising the steps of: receiving a frame including an RPS element; checking a restricted access window (RAW) assignment field within the RPS element; and performing an access on the basis of a RAW start time when the STA corresponds to a RAW group related to the RAW assignment field, wherein the RAW start time is obtained on the basis of a start time indication sub field, and the start time indication sub field indicates whether the RAW start time sub field indicating the RAW start time is included in the RAW assignment field.
Abstract:
According to one embodiment of the present invention, a method for performing a channel access by a station (STA) in a wireless communication system comprises the steps of: transmitting a first frame for a channel access request to an access point (AP); and receiving a second frame, which is a response to the channel access request, from the AP, wherein the first frame includes information indicating whether or not uplink data of the STA is present.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a wireless communication system, and more specifically, disclosed are a method and an apparatus for accessing a channel in a WLAN system. A method for accessing the channel from a station (STA) in the wireless communication system, according to one embodiment of the present invention, comprises a step of transmitting a power save-poll (PS-poll) for channel accessing from a listening interval to an access point, wherein the station operates in a non-traffic indication map (TIM) mode which is not limited by a TIM element that is transmitted from the access point, and wherein the time of transmission of the PS-poll is not limited by the TIM element.
Abstract:
Disclosed is a method for a station (STA) for accessing a channel in a wireless communication system. The method for a STA for accessing a channel in a wireless communication system comprises the steps of: receiving a beacon frame comprising a traffic indicator map (TIM); and transmitting a power save (PS)-Poll frame if buffered traffic is indicated by TIM to the STA, wherein the PS-Poll frame is transmitted during a PS-Poll dedicated restricted access window (RAW) by and/or during an additional RAW, the PS-Poll dedicated RAW being allocated to transmit the PS-Poll frame, and the additional RAW being additionally allocated subsequent to the PS-Poll-dedicated RAW.
Abstract:
An embodiment of the present invention provides a method for receiving a signal from an access point (AP) by a station (STA) in a wireless communication system, the method comprising the steps of: receiving a raw parameter set (RPS) element including a restricted access window (RAW) allocation field; and identifying, in the RAW allocation field, first information indicating whether the RAW allocation field relates to a periodic RAW and second information indicating whether the RAW allocation field relates to AP power management (PM), wherein the STA can acquire only information relating to a time interval of the RAW in subfields other than a subfield including the first information and the second information when the RAW relates to the AP PM.
