    Abstract: A method for beamforming training and a device using the same are provided. The device receives, from an access point (AP), a plurality of beacon frames for a sector sweep at a beacon transmission interval (BTI). At least one of the plurality of beacon frames includes an overload indicator indicating an overload state. The device determines whether to initiate a random backoff in an association beamforming training (A-BFT) following the BTI, on the basis of the overload indicator.

    Abstract: Provided are a method and apparatus for performing beamforming training in a wireless local area network. A responder receives a plurality of beacon frames in a plurality of TX sectors from an initiator during a transmission (TX) beamforming (BF) interval. The responder transmits a first sector sweep feedback for a first array antenna to the initiator during a reception (RX) beamforming (BF) interval. The first sector sweep feedback comprises a first antenna ID indicating a first array antenna and a first TX ID indicating a TX sector selected for the first array antenna from the plurality of TX sectors.
