NORTH-BSS TRANSFER WITH 'ON-CHANNEL TUNNING' (OCT)

摘要

Versions for switching between BSSs using on-channel tunneling (OCT) are generally described here. OCT procedures are used to scan and assign to a partner AP in the same place or not in the same place. OCT procedures include communicating a probe/re-authentication/re-assignment requirement framework from a STA in usean OCT Requirement Framework to the Partner AP and receiving a probe/re-authentication/re-assignment response framework from the Partner AP using a further OCT Requirement Framework. The communication between the STA and the AP shall take place either in the same frequency band as or in a frequency band other than the OCT communication between the AP and the Partner-AP.
