    Abstract: This application discloses a multi-link establishment method and a related device. A multi-link association response frame carries radio bitmap information, to indicate an AP allowed to be associated with a radio of a STA MLD or a link allowed to be established by using a radio of a STA MLD, so that the radio subsequently switches between different APs or links. The multi-link association response frame carries link establishment status information, to indicate a link establishment status of each link that the STA MLD requests to establish, so that multi-link establishment is more flexible. The multi-link association response frame carries reassociation information, to indicate whether each parameter in association configuration information is reserved, so that a problem that signaling overheads are relatively large due to a reassociation operation is avoided. It can be learned that, in the multi-link establishment method, the foregoing information is carried to improve multi-link establishment flexibility.

    Abstract: This application is applicable to a group addressed traffic transmission method applicable to a plurality of links and an apparatus. In the method, group addressed traffic indication information is used to indicate whether each AP or an AP other than a first AP in an AP MLD has group addressed traffic; or group addressed traffic indication information is used to indicate whether each AP or an AP other than a first AP in an AP MLD and each AP or an AP other than a non-transmitted AP in an AP MLD in which the non-transmitted AP in a multiple BSSID set in which the first AP is located have group addressed traffic. This application is applied to a wireless local area network system that supports an IEEE 802.11ax next-generation Wi-Fi EHT protocol, for example, an 802.11 series protocol such as 802.11be.

    Abstract: This application provides a data transmission method and a related apparatus. The method includes: A network device generates a first physical layer protocol data unit PPDU. The first PPDU includes a first universal-Signaling field U-SIG field and a first extremely high throughput-Signaling field EHT-SIG field, a sum of a quantity of information bits of the first U-SIG field and a quantity of information bits of the first EHT-SIG field is less than or equal to 78 information bits, and at least one of the first U-SIG field and the first EHT-SIG field includes an identifier indication field, where the identifier indication field is used to uniquely identify one station. The network device sends an encoded first PPDU to a station.

    Abstract: Embodiments of this application relate to a communication method. In the provided communication method, an access device sends an extremely high throughput EHT operation parameter to a station device, wherein the EHT operation parameter comprises an indicator for indicating packet extension PE duration, a first value of the indicator indicates that the PE duration is 16 μs or 20 μs, and a second value of the indicator indicates that the PE duration is duration specified by a high efficiency HE operation parameter.

    Abstract: The application provides a short training sequence design method and apparatus. The method includes: determining a short training sequence, where the short training sequence may be obtained based on an existing sequence, and the short training sequence with comparatively good performance may be obtained through simulation calculation, for example, by adjusting a parameter; and sending a short training field on a target channel, where the short training field is obtained by performing inverse fast Fourier transformation IFFT on the short training sequence, and a bandwidth of the target channel is greater than 160 MHz.

    Abstract: In a channel listening method, a non-simultaneous transmit and receive multi-link device (NSTR MLD) receives a first response frame on a first link and a second response frame on a second link, wherein an end time of the first response frame is later than an end time of the second response frame, and the first link and the second link belong to a NSTR link pair. The NSTR MLD determines that at least one of the first response frame and the second response frame fails to be received. In response to the determination, the NSTR MLD performs channel listening in a first interframe space after the first response frame ends, wherein a duration of the first interframe space is less than or equal to a duration of a point coordination function interframe space (PIFS).

The method includes: An AP generates and sends a trigger frame. The trigger frame carries first indication information, where the first indication information directly indicates or jointly indicates an EHT TB PPDU bandwidth or an uplink PPDU total transmission bandwidth. The trigger frame carries second indication information, where the second indication information indicates distribution of an HE TB PPDU and/or an EHT TB PPDU in the uplink PPDU total transmission bandwidth, or directly indicate whether an EHT station transmits an HE TB PPDU or an EHT TB PPDU.
