Claims16
A method for one of a plurality of access points (APs) of a wireless communication system to convey neighbor AP information to a station, comprising:
- an AP of the plurality of APs transmitting a compact information of at least one neighbor AP to the station;
- wherein the compact information is used for scanning and specifying a difference information between the one of the plurality of APs and the at least one neighbor AP.
A method for a station to receive neighbor access point (AP) information from one of a plurality APs of a wireless communication system, comprising:
- the station receiving a compact information of at least one neighbor AP;
- wherein the compact information is used for scanning and specifying a difference information between the one of the plurality of APs and the at least one neighbor AP.
A communication device for a wireless communication system, comprising:
- a central processing unit;
- and
- a storage device coupled to the central processing unit for storing a programming code, wherein the programming code instructs the central processing unit to process a method for a station to receive neighbor access point (AP) information from one of a plurality APs of a wireless communication system, the method comprising:
- receiving a compact information of at least one neighbor AP;
- wherein the compact information is used for scanning and specifying a difference information between the one of the plurality of APs and the at least one neighbor AP.
