Abstract
The present invention relates to a wireless communication system, and more specifically, disclosed are a method and an apparatus for filtering-based scanning in a WLAN system. A method for a station (STA) setting up a high-speed link in the wireless communication system, according to one embodiment of the present invention, comprises the steps of: transmitting a first frame comprising filtering information to at least one access point (AP); and receiving a second frame from a portion or all of the at least one AP, wherein whether to transmit the second frame can be determined on the basis of the filtering information.
Claims11
A method for performing, by a station (STA), fast link setup in a wireless communication system, comprising:
- transmitting, to one or more access points (APs), a first frame including filtering information;
- and
- receiving, from a portion or all of the APs, a second frame,
- wherein whether the second frame is transmitted is determined based on the filtering information, and
- wherein the filtering information includes a received signal strength limit value.
A method for supporting, by an AP, fast link setup in a wireless communication system, comprising:
- receiving a first frame including filtering information from an STA;
- and
- transmitting a second frame to the STA,
- wherein whether the second frame is transmitted is determined based on the filtering information, and
- wherein the filtering information includes a received signal strength limit value.
An STA performing fast link setup in a wireless communication system, comprising:
- a transceiver;
- and
- a processor,
- wherein the processor is configured to
- transmit, to one or more APs, a first frame including filtering information using the transceiver, and
- receive, from a portion or all of the APs, a second frame using the transceiver,
- wherein whether the second frame is transmitted is determined based on the filtering information, and
- wherein the filtering information includes a received signal strength limit value.
An AP supporting fast link setup in a wireless communication system, comprising:
- a transceiver;
- a processor,
- wherein the processor is configured to
- receive a first frame including filtering information from an STA using the transceiver, and
- transmit a second frame to the STA using the transceiver,
- wherein whether the second frame is transmitted is determined based on the filtering information, and
- wherein the filtering information includes a received signal strength limit value.
