- the terminal when the terminal transmits data using a wideband channel, the terminal may extract a plurality of backoff counter candidate values within a set contention window (CW) range, and the extracted backoff counter The largest value among the candidate values may be allocated to the backoff counter of the corresponding terminal.
- CW contention window
- the terminal when the terminal transmits data using n times the bandwidth of the basic channel, n backoff counter candidate values may be randomly extracted within a contention window (CW) range set in the corresponding terminal. In this case, the terminal may set the largest value among the extracted n backoff counter candidate values as a backoff counter for the main channel of the corresponding terminal.
- the probability f (z) of randomly extracting n values within the contention window value CW and the largest value among the extracted n values becomes z is expressed by the following equation.
- the terminal may determine an available state of the channel by using information such as a control frame received during a preset period before the current time point, and adjust an increase probability of the backoff counter based on the determined available channel state. . For example, as the channel availability situation becomes better, the terminal can lower the increase amount of the contention window CW set in the corresponding terminal. To this end, the UE can lower the increase amount of the contention window minimum value CWmin and the contention window maximum value CWmax. Similarly, the terminal can reduce the number n of extracting the backoff counter candidate value for the terminal as the channel availability situation is better. As such, when the channel availability is good, an unnecessary backoff procedure in a contention-free state can be prevented by reducing the increase in the contention window CW and the number n of backoff counter candidate value extractions.
- FIG. 26 shows another embodiment of a data transmission method using a wideband channel. According to the embodiment of FIG. 26, when the terminal transmits data using a wideband channel, the terminal may gradually perform bandwidth expansion from the primary channel.
- the terminal for transmitting data performs a backoff procedure for the main channel CH1 and transmits data using the main channel CH1 when the backoff counter expires.
- the UE determines whether the corresponding channel is available by performing CCA for the subchannel during the time of xIFS after the backoff expiration.
- xIFS may be set to PIFS as in the previous bandwidth extension embodiments, or may be set to another value. If the corresponding subchannel is idle during the configured time of xIFS, the UE transmits data using the corresponding subchannel together with the main channel CH1. After the UE starts to occupy the subchannel, the same process is repeated for the additional subchannel for the time of xIFS.
- the terminal may expand the bandwidth in units of one channel when performing the bandwidth extension, but may also extend the bandwidth in units of a predetermined number of channels.
- the order of adding subchannels for bandwidth extension may be determined based on the order of merging or combining with the main channel according to the above-described broadband allocation rule, but the present invention is not limited thereto.
- FIG. 26 when the terminal performs channel expansion for using a wideband channel, other communication terminals may start communication by gradually expanding the channel with a time difference of a preset xIFS. You can give them a chance.
- the present invention has been described using the WLAN communication as an example, the present invention is not limited thereto and may be equally applicable to other communication systems such as cellular communication.
