Abstract
According to one embodiment, an electronic apparatus includes a transmitter circuitry and a receiver circuitry. The transmitter circuitry is configured to; transmit a first frame to a first terminal, and transmit a second frame to a second terminal when a first period elapsed after transmission of the first frame. The receiver circuitry is configured to receive a third frame including acknowledgement information of the first frame from the first terminal when the first period elapsed after transmission of the first frame. A duration of the second frame is set as equal to or greater than a difference between a duration of the third frame and a duration of the first frame.
Claims18
An electronic apparatus comprising:
- transmitter circuitry configured to:
- transmit a first frame to a first terminal;
- and
- transmit a second frame to a second terminal when a first period elapsed after transmission of the first frame;
- and
- receiver circuitry configured to receive a third frame including acknowledgement information of the first frame from the first terminal when the first period elapsed after transmission of the first frame,
- wherein a time length of the second frame is set as equal to or greater than a difference between a time length of the third frame and a length of the first period, and
- the electronic apparatus comprises processing circuitry configured to generate the second frame with a time length equal to a sum of a second time length and a third time length, when the second time length which is a default time length of the second frame is less than a difference between the time length of the third frame and the first period.
A wireless communication method comprising the steps of:
- transmitting a first frame;
- waiting for a first period after transmission of the first frame is completed;
- receiving a third frame including acknowledgement information of the first frame;
- transmitting a second frame with a time length which is equal to or greater than a difference between a time length of the third frame and the first period;
- and
- generating the second frame with a time length equal to a sum of the second time length and a third time length if the second time length which is a default time length of a frame is less than the difference between the time length of the third frame and the first period.
