    摘要: This disclosure provides a backoff counting method in a non-simultaneous transmit and receive (NSTR) operation mode and the communication device for the method. The method includes: configuring a plurality of backoff counters for counting backoff slots with no medium activity of channels of the plurality of links; synchronizing a count value of a first backoff counter of the plurality of backoff counters with a count value of a second backoff counter of the plurality of backoff counters, if the first backoff counter starts counting later than the second backoff counter or resumes counting after a pause, wherein the count value of the second backoff counter is smaller than that of the first backoff counter; and transmitting or receiving a signal on a channel of at least one of the plurality of links after all the backoff counters reach a predefined value.

    摘要: A method for wireless communication by a user equipment (UE) includes receiving, from a network node, a first message indicating, for each network power mode of a group of network power modes, a group of random-access channel (RACH) process parameters. The method also includes receiving, from the network node, a second message indicating a current network power mode, of the group of network power modes, enabled at the network node. The method further includes receiving, from the network node, a third message including a physical downlink control channel (PDCCH) order that initiates a RACH process in accordance with the respective group of RACH process parameters associated with the current network power mode. The method still further includes transmitting, to the network node based on receiving the PDCCH order, a RACH preamble associated with the RACH process.

    摘要: A multi-link operation (MLO) transmission method is provided. The MLO transmission method may be applied to an apparatus. The MLO transmission method may include the following steps. A plurality of station (STA) modules of the apparatus may each perform a respective backoff procedure. Each STA module may correspond to a different link. An MLO control circuit of the apparatus or a first STA module of the plurality of STA modules may determine whether to perform a synchronous transmission (TX) for a first STA module and at least one of other STA modules in response to a first backoff counter of the first STA module reaching 0.

    摘要: This disclosure describes systems, methods, and devices related to aligned channel access. A device may perform a first backoff countdown on a first link associated with a first station device (STA) of the device, wherein the device is a multi-link device (MLD). The device may detect a second backoff countdown associated with a second STA of the MLD after the first backoff countdown reaches zero. The device may determine to hold the first backoff countdown at zero based on the value of the second backoff countdown. The device may transmit in synchronization on the first link and on the second link from the first STA and the second STA respectively based on holding the first backoff countdown at zero.

    摘要: A wireless local area network (WLAN) access point (AP) transmits a ready-to-send (RTS) frame. In response to the transmitted RTS frame and during a transmission opportunity (TXOP), a clear-to-send (CTS) frame from a first station is received. The WLAN AP further transmits at least one data frame in response to the received CTS frame and in response to the transmitted at least one data frame, an acknowledgement from the first station. The WLAN AP further transmits, in response to the received acknowledgement signal, a first medium access control (MAC) frame which is received by a second station, and the WLAN AP receives, in response to the transmitted first MAC frame and during the TXOP, a second MAC frame from the second station.

    摘要: Provided are a communication device and a communication method capable of further improving the quality between radio links in a communication system in which a base station device and the communication device communicate with each other. A communication device (50) according to the present disclosure includes a receiver (511a) and a transmitter (512d). The receiver (511a) receives a synchronization signal transmitted from a base station device (20, 30). The transmitter (512d) transmits a physical random access channel (PRACH) including a feature capable of uniquely identifying the synchronization signal received by a receiver (511a) and/or a PRACH resource to the base station device (20, 30).
