ULTRA-LOW LATENCY DATA TRANSMISSION IN WLANS

Abstract:

The application relates to ultra-low latency data transmission in Wireless Local Area Networks (WLANs). An apparatus used in a non-Access Point Station (non-AP STA), includes processor circuitry configured to cause the non-AP STA to, when there is urgent data that must be transmitted in uplink without waiting for a scheduled slot: generate a Protocol Data Unit (PDU) from the urgent data; and transmit the PDU on a resource unit pre-assigned for urgent transmission, wherein the resource unit is multiplexed for uplink transmission from multiple non-AP STAs.
