Abstract
The present specification discloses a method for transmitting and receiving acknowledgement (ACK) information in a wireless local area network (WLAN) system and a device for the same. More specifically, the present specification describes a method in which a station device scheduled according to a time division duplex (TDD) scheduling scheme transmits and receives ACK information based on TDD scheduling information and a device for the same.
Claims15
A method for transmitting, by a station (STA), acknowledgement (ACK) information in a wireless local area network (WLAN) system, the method comprising:
- receiving, from an access point (AP), time division duplex (TDD) allocation information in one service period (SP),
- wherein the one SP comprises at least one first time unit, wherein one first time unit among the at least one first time unit comprises at least one second time unit, and wherein the TDD allocation information comprises allocation information on the at least one second time unit;
- receiving, from the AP, downlink (DL) TDD data in the at least one second time unit;
- and
- transmitting the ACK information to the AP in a third time unit,
- wherein the third time unit is determined, based on the TDD allocation information, as an earliest second time unit among the at least one second time unit after receiving the DL TDD data.
A method for receiving, by an access point (AP), acknowledgement (ACK) information from a station (STA) in a wireless local area network (WLAN) system, the method comprising:
- transmitting, to the STA, time division duplex (TDD) allocation information for one service period (SP),
- wherein the one SP comprises at least one first time unit, wherein one first time unit among the at least one first time unit comprises at least one second time unit, and wherein the TDD allocation information comprises allocation information on the at least one second time unit;
- transmitting, to the STA, downlink (DL) TDD data in the at least one second time unit and
- receiving the ACK information from the STA in a third time unit,
- wherein the third time unit is determined, based on the TDD allocation information, as an earliest second time unit among the at least one second time unit after receiving the DL TDD data.
A station device for transmitting acknowledgement (ACK) information in a wireless local area network (WLAN) system, the station device comprising:
- a transceiver configured to have at least one radio frequency (RF) chains and to transmit or receive a signal to and from another station device;
- and
- a processor configured to be connected to the transceiver and to process the signal transmitted to or received from the another station device,
- wherein the processor is configured to:
- receive time division duplex (TDD) allocation information from the another station device in one service period (SP),
- wherein the one SP comprises at least one first time unit, wherein one first time unit among the at least one first time unit comprises at least one second time unit, and wherein the TDD allocation information comprises allocation information on the at least one second time unit;
- and
- receive, from the another station device, downlink (DL) TDD data in the at least one second time unit;
- and
- transmit the ACK information to the another station device in a third time unit,
- wherein the third time unit is determined, based on the TDD allocation information, as an earliest second time unit among the at least one second time unit after the DL TDD data is received.
