Abstract
The present technology relates to a wireless communication device and method capable of improving reliability of notification regarding a reception result in communication using a plurality of bands. The wireless communication device controls to transmit, by using any band of two or more bands, an MBO BA Setup signal containing setting information regarding a setting of a notification method for a reception result used for communication in the two or more bands, and to transmit a Data signal containing data by using the two or more bands. The present technology can be applied to wireless communication systems.
Claims20
A wireless communication device comprising:
- a transceiver;
- and
- a control circuit configured to control the transceiver to:
- transmit, via any band of a first and second band, a Setup signal to a second wireless device, the Setup signal containing setting information
- wherein the setting information:
- identifies which of the first and second bands will be respectively used by the wireless device for a future transmission of a first and second data signal, the first data signal including a first block of multiple sets of data, and the second data signal including a second block of multiple sets of data, and
- identifies whether one or both of the first and second bands are to be used by the second wireless device to send at least one block acknowledgement (BA) with respect to the first and second block of multiple sets of data,
- based on the setting information, transmit the first and second data signals in the first and second bands, respectively, and
- receive the at least one BA for at least one of the first and second block of multiple sets of data in the one or more of the first and second bands identified in the setting information.

A method performed by a wireless communication device, the method comprising:
- transmitting, via any band of a first and second band, a Setup signal to a second wireless device, the Setup signal containing setting information,
- wherein the setting information:
- identifies which of the first and second bands will be respectively used by the wireless device for a future transmission of a first and second data signal, the first data signal including a first block of multiple sets of data, and the second data signal including a second block of multiple sets of data, and
- identifies whether one or both of the first and second bands are to be used by the second wireless device to send at least one block acknowledgement (BA) with respect to the first and second block of multiple sets of data,
- based on the setting information, transmitting the first and second data signals in the first and second bands, respectively, and
- receiving the at least one BA for at least one of the first and second block of multiple sets of data in the one or more of the first and second bands identified in the setting information.
