Wireless LAN handover method, wireless terminal, program product for use in the wireless terminal, and wireless communications system

摘要

A wireless terminal is associated with a Basic Service Set (BSS) or an Independent Basic Service Set (IBSS). The wireless terminal notifies the currently associated target of transition into power saving mode, before migrating from the currently associated BSS or IBSS to another BSS or IBSS. Subsequently, the wireless LAN terminal starts searching for another BSS or IBSS which is the next candidate target to be associated with.
