MECHANISM TO SIGNAL SIMULTANEOUS TRANSMIT RECEIVE OR NON-SIMULTANEOUS TRANSMIT RECEIVE CONSTRAINTS

摘要

This disclosure describes systems, methods, and devices related to simultaneous transmit receive (STR)/non-simultaneous transmit receive (NSTR) Signaling. A device may establish a multi-link operation with a non-AP multi-link device (MLD), wherein the non-AP MLD comprises one or more logical entities defining separate station devices (STAs). The device may set up a plurality of links between the AP MLD and the non-AP MLD, wherein the multi-link operation permits each link of the plurality of links to connect an individual STA of the non-AP MLD with an individual AP of the AP MLD. The device may generate a frame comprising a multiple links (ML) element that comprises an MLD common information field, wherein the MLD common information field comprises information common to all the STAs in the non-AP MLD. The device may indicate to the non-AP MLD whether a subset of the plurality of links is compatible with simultaneous transmit-receive (STR) or non-simultaneous transmit-receive (NSTR). The device may cause to send the frame to the non-AP MLD.
