Original Abstract Submitted
A non-access point multi-link device (non-AP MLD) receives from an access point multi-link device (AP MLD), while in a first power save mode, a beacon frame comprising a traffic indication map (TIM) element indicating downlink buffered units (BUs) for the non-AP MLD, where during the first power save mode the non-AP MLD wakes to listen for beacon frames on one of enabled links at least once within a listen interval. After receiving the downlink BUs from the AP MLD, the non-AP MLD switches to a second power save mode, where during the second power save mode the non-AP MLD wakes to listen for beacon frames at each target beacon transmission time (TBTT) on the enabled links until a timer expires.
