Original Abstract Submitted

Disclosed herein are systems and methods related to using restricted target wake time in wireless communication. In one aspect, a first wireless communication device may configure a first field indicating (i) one or more traffic streams that are latency sensitive, and (ii) a direction of each of the one or more traffic streams between the first wireless communication device and a second wireless communication device. Each of the one or more traffic streams is to be communicated during a respective service period of a restricted target wake time (rTWT) schedule. The first wireless communication device may send a message including the first field to a second wireless communication device.
