    摘要: The present disclosure provides a communication apparatus and a communication method for multi-generation random access, the communication apparatus comprising: a receiver which, in operation, receives, from a base communication apparatus, an uplink OFDMA (Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiple Access) based random access (UORA) parameter and a trigger frame comprising user information fields allocating a plurality of random access resource units (RA-RUs); and circuitry which is configured to, in operation, derive a contention window parameter from the UORA parameter based on an operating bandwidth of the communication apparatus, determine an UORA result to access the plurality of RA-RUs based on the contention window parameter and select one RA-RU from the plurality of RA-RUs according to the determination; and a transmitter which, in operation, transmits an uplink signal on the one RA-RU.

    摘要: This disclosure provides a backoff counting method in a non-simultaneous transmit and receive (NSTR) operation mode and the communication device for the method. The method includes: configuring a plurality of backoff counters for counting backoff slots with no medium activity of channels of the plurality of links; synchronizing a count value of a first backoff counter of the plurality of backoff counters with a count value of a second backoff counter of the plurality of backoff counters, if the first backoff counter starts counting later than the second backoff counter or resumes counting after a pause, wherein the count value of the second backoff counter is smaller than that of the first backoff counter; and transmitting or receiving a signal on a channel of at least one of the plurality of links after all the backoff counters reach a predefined value.

    摘要: This disclosure provides systems and methods for requesting wireless resources for peer-to-peer (P2P) communications. In some implementations, a wireless communication device transmits a frame over a wireless medium to an access point (AP), the frame including a medium access control (MAC) header carrying a request for the AP to allocate part of a transmission opportunity (TXOP) for P2P communications between the wireless communication device and a client device. The wireless communication device receives a trigger frame allocating a portion of the TXOP for the P2P communications, and transmits or receives P2P data to or from the client device over the wireless medium during the allocated portion of the TXOP. In some instances, the MAC header of the frame includes a Quality-of-Service (QoS) Control field carrying the request. In some other instances, the MAC header of the frame includes an Aggregated-Control (A-Control) subfield carrying the request.

    摘要: A multi-link operation (MLO) transmission method is provided. The MLO transmission method may be applied to an apparatus. The MLO transmission method may include the following steps. A plurality of station (STA) modules of the apparatus may each perform a respective backoff procedure. Each STA module may correspond to a different link. An MLO control circuit of the apparatus or a first STA module of the plurality of STA modules may determine whether to perform a synchronous transmission (TX) for a first STA module and at least one of other STA modules in response to a first backoff counter of the first STA module reaching 0.
