Computer readable media, methods, and apparatuses for centralized channel access for primary and secondary channels are disclosed. An apparatus is disclosed comprising memory and processing circuitry. The processing circuitry is configured to encode a schedule of one or more resource allocations, wherein each resource allocation comprises a type of allocation, a bandwidth, an indication of a channel, a source association identification (AID), a destination AID, an allocation start, and a duration. The type of allocation may be a service period (SP) or a contention-based access period (CBAP). The channel may be an indication of a basic service set (BSS) or a personal BSS (PBSS) primary channel, BSS or PBSS secondary channel, or BSS or PBSS tertiary channel. The processing circuitry may be configured to transmit the schedule to one or more stations identified by the source AID and the destination AID of the one or more resource allocations.
