Simplified Explanation

The patent application describes a method and apparatus for establishing associations between an access point (AP) and unassociated stations (STAs).

  • The AP broadcasts a trigger frame to prompt unassociated STAs to perform uplink data transmission and indicates available subchannels for random accessing.
  • The AP receives association request messages sent by the unassociated STAs on the available subchannels.
  • The AP then broadcasts a multi-block acknowledgement (M-BA) frame that includes association acknowledgement information for the received association request messages.


Original Abstract Submitted

An association establishment method and apparatus for carrying out the method are described. The association establishment method includes broadcasting, by an access point (AP), a trigger frame, wherein the trigger frame is used to trigger one or more unassociated stations STAs to perform uplink data transmission and indicate one or more available subchannels for random accessing of the unassociated STAs. The method further comprises receiving, by the AP, one or more association request messages sent on available subchannels acquired by the unassociated STAs. Thereafter, the AP broadcasts a multi-block acknowledgement M-BA frame, wherein the M-BA frame includes one or more pieces of association acknowledgement information and the association acknowledgement information is acknowledgement information of the association request message.
