Optimizing anonymized parameters distribution in multi-link operation

An access point (AP) multi-link device (MLD) comprising:

• one or more memories collectively storing instructions;
• and
• one or more processors communicatively coupled to the one or more memories, the one or more processors being individually or collectively configured to execute the instructions to cause the AP MLD to perform an operation comprising:
• determining a respective set of anonymized parameters for each link of a plurality of links for a plurality of epochs, the plurality of links being established between the AP MLD and a station (STA) MLD;
• determining, based on the sets of anonymized parameters, that a plurality of anonymized parameter collisions are expected to occur on at least a first link and a second link of the plurality of links during one or more epochs of the plurality of epochs;
• generating a frame comprising an indication of the plurality of anonymized parameter collisions on the first link and the second link;
• and
• transmitting the frame to the STA MLD.

A non-transitory computer-readable medium comprising computer-executable code, which when executed by one or more processors of an access point (AP) multi-link device (MLD) perform an operation comprising:

• determining a respective set of anonymized parameters for each link of a plurality of links for a plurality of epochs, the plurality of links being established between the AP MLD and a station (STA) MLD;
• determining, based on the sets of anonymized parameters, that a plurality of anonymized parameter collisions are expected to occur on at least a first link and a second link of the plurality of links during one or more epochs of the plurality of epochs;
• generating a frame comprising an indication of the plurality of anonymized parameter collisions on the first link and the second link;
• and
• transmitting the frame to the STA MLD.
