摘要:
A method for polling of stations in a Wireless Local Area Network (WLAN), including the steps of: obtaining Quality of Service (QoS) information related to the stations; assigning two timers to each WLAN service requiring QoS guarantee, one for uplink transmission and the other for downlink transmission; starting a Controlled Access Period (CAP) when a minimum timer Tm is below the threshold Tthr; polling the station with the minimum timer; updating the minimum timer after a polling message is sent; quitting CAP and permitting the resource contention if the minimum timer Tm is larger than the threshold Tthr.
