Original Abstract Submitted

Methods, systems and apparatuses for performing enhanced integrity protection techniques by an access point (AP) and non-AP are described. A station (STA) can receive, from an access point (AP), an integrity protection (IP) capability request and transmit an IP capability response to the AP. The STA can receive, from the AP, one or more downlink (DL) frames comprising at least one adjusted parameter field of a plurality of parameter fields. The STA can verify, based on at least one value of the adjusted parameter field or one or more parameter fields of the plurality of parameter fields, that the one or more DL frames have been correctly received from the AP.
