    Abstract: A cooperative communication method receives an announcement frame from a master access point. The announcement frame includes a duration field, a value of the duration field is set to a first duration, an end time of the first duration is not later than an end time of a target trigger frame or is not later than a start time of a target trigger based (TB) physical layer protocol data unit (PPDU), the target trigger frame is a next radio frame of the announcement frame, the target TB PPDU is a response frame for the target trigger frame, the target trigger frame comprises a second trigger frame, and the target TB PPDU comprises a second TB PPDU. The slave access point sends the second trigger frame to a second station associated with the slave access point, and receives the second TB PPDU from the second station.

    Abstract: This application provides a communications method and a communications apparatus. A first station in a first multi-link device sends first information to a second multi-link device, where the first information is used to indicate a frequency at which how often a station in a power saving mode in the first multi-link device receives a beacon frame. In this way, the second multi-link device may learn about, based on the first information, how often a frequency at which a station in the first multi-link device receives a beacon frame, thereby helping the second multi-link device effectively manage a cache service of each station in the first multi-link device and manage a data buffer space.

    Abstract: This application provides an information transmission method and a communication apparatus. The method includes: A first device sends TWT resource configuration information in a first BSS to a second device. The first device is located in the first BSS, the second device is located in a second BSS, and the first BSS and the second BSS at least partially overlap. According to the information transmission method provided in this application, TWT resource configuration information in a plurality of BSSs is shared among the plurality of BSSs in an OBSS scenario. Therefore, collision can be further avoided during data transmission in different BSSs in the OBSS scenario, thereby improving quality and assurance of data transmission between devices in the plurality of BSSs, and improving efficiency of data transmission in the OBSS scenario.

    Abstract: An AID allocation method for a multi-link device, includes: An access point multi-link device generates and sends a first frame. Correspondingly, a station device receives and parses the first frame to obtain an AID that is allocated to the station device and carried in the first frame. The AID is neither a BSSID that can be supported by a first-type access point in the access point multi-link device nor an identifier of an access point in the access point multi-link device. The first-type access point is an access point for establishing a link between the station device and the access point multi-link device.

    Abstract: A method includes: An access point generates an NDPA frame, where the NDPA frame includes a station information field, and the station information field includes an AID subfield indicating an association identifier AID of a station; the station information field further includes a partial bandwidth information subfield; the partial bandwidth information subfield indicates an RU that is in a bandwidth corresponding to the NDPA frame and for which the station needs to feed back channel state information; and the bandwidth corresponding to the NDPA frame is greater than 160 MHz. The access point transmits the NDPA frame.

    Abstract: This application provides a radio frame sending method and apparatus, and a radio frame receiving method and apparatus. First information for identifying a first MLD in an MLE is included in a radio frame, so that a receiver of the radio frame obtains information of the first MLD from the MLE based on the first information after receiving the radio frame. In the method, a first AP generates the radio frame including the MLE, the MLE carries the information of the first MLD, the MLE includes the first information, and the first information identifies the first MLD; and the first AP sends the radio frame. This application is applied to a wireless local area network system supporting next-generation Wi-Fi protocols of IEEE 802.11ax, for example 802.11be and other 802.11 family of protocols.

    Abstract: Embodiments of this application provide a communication method between multi-link devices and an apparatus, and relate to the field of communications technologies, to reduce power consumption of a station multi-link device. The method includes: a multi-link device includes a plurality of STAs, one STA operates on one of a plurality of links, and the STA determines a primary link in the plurality of links. A STA operating on the primary link in the multi-link device may receive information sent by the AP indicating whether the STA operating on the primary link has a downlink traffic, and/or information indicating whether a STA operating on a link other than the primary link has a downlink traffic. Therefore, the STA operating on the primary link may determine a link on which the STA having a downlink traffic operates in the multi-link device.
