Abstract:
A method for performing uplink Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiple Access (UL OFDMA) based random access to an Access Point (AP) by a Station (STA) in a Wireless Local Area Network (WLAN) system is proposed. For the purpose, the STA sets a random value within an OFDMA Contention Window (CWO) as an OFDMA Back-Off (OBO) value, receives a beacon frame from the AP, the beacon frame including transmission start time information of one or more Trigger Frames for Random Access (TF-Rs), decrements the OBO value based on reception of the one or more TF-Rs, and if the OBO value reaches 0, transmits a random access request frame in resources selected randomly from among resources allocated to the STA.

Abstract:
The present document relates to a method for transmitting, by an access point, an ACK/NACK signal for transmission data from a plurality of stations (STA) in a WLAN system and a device for the same. To this end, the AP transmits a trigger frame to the plurality of stations STA, receives the data transmitted from the plurality of STA in response to the trigger frame, and transmits the ACK/NACK signal for the data received from the plurality of STA. In this process, the ACK/NACK signal may be transmitted in the form of a multi-user block ACK (M-BA) frame that is composed of a 242 tones unit.
