Abstract:
The present invention provides a method for performing association beamforming training (A-BFT) between an enhanced STA device and a PCP/AP (Personal basic service set Control Point/Access Point) in a wireless communication system. Specifically, the method performed by the enhanced STA device comprises receiving, from the PCP/AP, a beacon frame during a beacon interval, wherein the beacon frame includes information element (IE) used for an enhanced directional multi-gigabit (EDMG) operation; and performing the A-BFT with the PCP/AP based on the received IE, wherein the IE includes control information related to an access attempt of the A-BFT.
