A method includes receiving indications of a wake-up interval assigned to a station and a corresponding group to which the station belongs, wherein all stations assigned to the group are assigned the wake-up interval. The method includes waking the station during the wake-up interval and determining, using at least the indication of the group, whether information received by the station during the wake-up interval corresponds to the group. Another method includes assigning stations to one of multiple groups based on wake-up intervals, in which stations assigned to a group all have a same wake-up interval and each group has a different wake-up interval, sending indications of a corresponding wake-up interval and a corresponding group to each of the stations, and during a interval corresponding to the wake-up interval for a selected group, transmitting the indication of the selected group and associated information meant for the group.

A multi-link access point (AP) device is configured for multi-link operation to communicate with a plurality of non-AP stations (STAs) over a plurality of corresponding links. A multi-link policy element is encoded for transmission to the non-AP STAs to signal a multi-link policy. The multi-link policy element comprises a common policy sub-element and a plurality of link-specific policy sub-elements. The common policy sub-element is applicable to all links. Each of the link-specific policy sub-elements is applicable to a single link. The link-specific policy sub-elements comprise at least a first link-specific policy sub-element applicable to a first link and a second link-specific policy sub-element applicable to a second link. The common policy sub-element defines a link policy for all links that have been set up between the multi-link AP device and the non-AP STAs. Each link-specific policy element defines a link policy specific to an associated link.

An access point (AP) may operate as a master AP (AP1) to perform multi-AP coordinated beamforming (CBF). The AP1 may to initiate a first sounding sequence with one or more STAs associated with the AP1 (BSS STAs) and the one or more STAs associated with a second AP (AP2) (OBSS STAs). In these embodiments, initiation of the first sounding sequence triggers the AP2 to join the sounding sequence to initiate a second sound sequence with the BSS STAs and the OBSS STAs.
