PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an occupancy control method capable of flexibly dealing with stream data transfer or the like in a wireless LAN.;SOLUTION: A method provides access to a channel in a network including stations and an access point connected by a common wireless channel. A station makes a request to the access point to access to the channel to transmit a data stream. The access point assigns a sequence index value to the data stream. The sequence index value is broadcast by the access point. Then, the station transmits the data stream, during a contention-free period, at a time corresponding to the sequence index value.;COPYRIGHT: (C)2006,JPO&NCIPI
