Original Abstract Submitted
This application provides a multi-link-based communication method and an apparatus, to resolve a problem of an improper switching operation in an MLO. This application is applied to a wireless local area network system that supports a next-generation Wi-Fi protocol of IEEE 802.11ax, for example, 802.11 series protocols such as 802.11be, Wi-Fi 7, or EHT, and a next generation protocol of 802.11be, Wi-Fi 8, or Wi-Fi AI, and may be applied to a UWB-based wireless personal local area network system and a sensing system. According to the method, a related condition of a group addressed frame other than a trigger frame, a multi-station block acknowledgment frame, and a no-data PPDU announcement frame is added to a condition set, so that a non-AP STA can determine, based on information about the group addressed frame when performing a switching operation, whether to switch to a listening operation mode.
