Cross-link network allocation vector (NAV) setting for multi-link operation (MLO)

Abstract:

One innovative aspect of the subject matter described in this disclosure may be implemented in a method for wireless communication. The method may be performed, for example, by a first entity of a multi-link device (MLD) to receive a first control frame transmitted on a first wireless link and set, in response to receiving the first control frame, a network allocation vector (NAV) for each link of multiple wireless links of the first MLD based on a duration field in the first control frame.
