Abstract:
Provided is a data communication method performed at a transmission node, the method including collecting a node list including nodes communicable with the transmission node, exchanging the node list with each of the communicable nodes, determining an allowance of a space recycling transmission to a reception node by determining that the transmission node is a corresponding node as an exposed node in response to an occurrence of a clear-to-send (CTS) timeout, and transmitting data to the reception node based on a result of determining the allowance of the space recycling transmission.
Abstract:
A method for channel sounding in a wireless local area network (WLAN) system and apparatus for the same is disclosed. An access point (AP) to perform the method for channel sounding broadcasts information on a restricted access window (RAW) for channel sounding included in a beacon, and transmits null data packets (NDP) for channel estimation in the RAW to a station (STA). The STA estimates channel information based on the NDPs, and transmits the estimated channel information to the AP.
