This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18018457 titled 'ACQUISITION OF IMPORTANT INFORMATION IN POWER-SAVING MODE
Simplified Explanation
- The abstract describes a wireless local area network system that includes multiple stations (STAs) and access points (APs). - The system operates with multiple links, with the first STA and first AP operating over a first link, and the second STA and second AP operating over a second link. - The second STA may be in a doze state, which means it is in a low-power mode. - The first STA receives a notice frame through the first link, which contains information about a critical update that has occurred in the second AP. - The second STA acquires the information related to the critical update from the first STA. - The notice frame includes a management frame, which is a type of frame used for network management purposes.
Original Abstract Submitted
In a Wireless Local Area Network system, an STA MLD may include a first STA and a second STA, and an access point (AP) MLD may include a first AP and a second AP. The first STA and the first AP operate over a first link, the second STA and the second AP operate over a second link, and the second STA may be in a doze state. The first STA may receive, through the first link, a notice frame including information related to a critical update that has occurred in the second AP. The second STA may acquire, from the first STA, information related to the critical update. The notice frame may include a management frame.
