Abstract
An access point (AP) transmits one or more first frames including: a target wake time (TWT) element indicating a restricted target wake time (r-TWT) service period (SP) of an r-TWT setup for one or more first stations (STAs), and a quiet element indicating a quiet interval, overlapping with the r-TWT SP, for one or more second STAs. The AP transmits, during the r-TWT SP, a quality of service (QOS) data or null frame with an end of service period (EOSP) field set to a first value.
Claims20
An access point (AP) comprising:
- a processor;
- and
- a memory storing instructions that, when executed by the processor, cause the AP to:
- transmit one or more first frames comprising:
- a target wake time (TWT) element indicating a restricted target wake time (r-TWT) service period (SP) of an r-TWT setup for one or more first stations (STAs);
- and
- a quiet element indicating a quiet interval, overlapping with the r-TWT SP, for one or more second STAs;
- and
- transmit, during the r-TWT SP, a quality of service (QOS) data or null frame with an end of service period (EOSP) field set to a first value.
A station (STA) comprising:
- a processor;
- and
- a memory storing instructions that, when executed by the processor, cause the STA to:
- receive, from an access point (AP), one or more first frames comprising:
- a target wake time (TWT) element indicating a restricted target wake time (r-TWT) service period (SP) of an r-TWT setup for one or more first stations (STAs);
- and
- a quiet element indicating a quiet interval overlapping with a portion of the r-TWT SP;
- and
- receive, from the AP and during the r-TWT SP, a quality of service (QOS) data or null frame with an end of service period (EOSP) field set to a first value.
A non-transitory computer-readable medium comprising instructions that, when executed by a processor of station (STA), cause the STA to:
- receive, from an access point (AP), one or more first frames comprising:
- a target wake time (TWT) element indicating a restricted target wake time (r-TWT) service period (SP) of an r-TWT setup for one or more first stations (STAs);
- and
- a quiet element indicating a quiet interval overlapping with a portion of the r-TWT SP;
- and
- receive, from the AP and during the r-TWT SP, a quality of service (QOS) data or null frame with an end of service period (EOSP) field set to a first value.
