Abstract:
Provided is a sector discovery apparatus and method, the method including setting, by an AP in a WLAN system, an omni-beacon interval for transmitting an omnidirectional beacon and sector beacon intervals for transmitting a sector beacon with respect to one of a plurality of sectors which are spatially divided, transmitting the sector beacon to a current sector among the plurality of sectors, transmitting, to the current sector, a transmission frame indicating sectorized transmission or a transmission frame indicating omnidirectional transmission, in a sector interval between the sector beacon intervals, and receiving, from a terminal located in the current sector, a response frame indicating an association performed by receiving the transmission frame indicating the sectorized transmission.
Abstract:
A method and an apparatus for allocating a flexible transmission slot in a wireless local area network (LAN) system are disclosed. A flexible transmission slot allocation method of an access point (AP) in a wireless local area network (WLAN) system according to an exemplary embodiment includes transmitting a beacon including a traffic indication map (TIM) bit to a station, receiving a power save poll (PS-Poll) from the station in a slot implicitly allocated by the TIM bit, and transmitting an acknowledgement (ACK) including transmission slot allocation information on downlink data to the station.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a method and apparatus for transceiving data. A method in which a transmitting terminal transmits data to a receiving terminal in a MIMO system according to one embodiment of the present invention comprises the following steps: generating a data field containing the data; generating a signal field containing information on the data field; generating a data frame containing the data field and the signal field; and transmitting the data frame to the receiving terminal. According to the present invention, an end of the frame being transmitted is accurately notified to the receiving terminal in a communication system in which the frame is transmitted using MIMO, thereby decoding the frame in a more efficient manner at the receiving terminal.
