    Abstract: A scanning method and apparatus in wireless LAN is disclosed. The method comprises determining, by an access point (AP), whether to accommodate a station (STA) conducting an initial link setup and transmitting, by the AP, a frame to the STA, the frame including scanning redirection information for the STA to switch other channel, other band, or a neighbor AP when the AP determines not to accommodate the STA. The scanning redirection information includes a band field and a channel field. The band field indicating a band in which the STA conducts the initial link setup when the STA conducts the initial link setup from current band to the other band. The channel field indicating a channel in which the STA conducts the initial link setup when the STA conducts the initial link setup from current channel to the other channel.

    Abstract: The present invention relates to an active scanning method and apparatus. The method of performing scanning in a wireless local area network (WLAN) includes: a step of a scanning station generating scan request information so as to order active scanning; a step of the scanning station receiving a scanning frame from the station; and a step of the scanning station transmitting a probe request frame in order to perform the active scanning in case the received scanning frame does not include any of the elements that are ordered in the scan request information. Accordingly, scanning procedures can be performed quickly.

    Abstract: A wireless communication system is disclosed. Specifically, a channelization method in a whitespace band and an apparatus for the same are disclosed. A method for providing whitespace operation information includes transmitting, by a first station (STA) to a second STA, a frame including a TV whitespace high throughput (TVHT) operation information field. The TVHT operation information field includes primary channel number, channel width, channel center frequency segment 0 and channel center frequency segment 1 subfields. A channel center frequency of frequency segment 0 or frequency segment 1 is determined based on a channel start frequency. The channel start frequency is determined as a function of a TV channel index corresponding to the frequency segment 0 or a TV channel index corresponding to the frequency segment 1.

    Abstract: A device and method for active scanning are disclosed. The active scanning method in a wireless LAN can comprise the steps of: allowing an AP to receive a probe request frame containing an the AP identifier; determining whether the AP is a target AP or a non-target AP on the basis of the AP identifier; and performing back-off for the transmission of a probe response frame from a second interval after a first interval is terminated in a minimum channel interval when the AP is a non-target AP. Therefore, the present invention can prevent probe response frames from flooding a STA in a short period of time by distributing intervals in which probe response frames are received to the STA. In addition, the time used by the STA to perform active scanning can be reduced.
