- next-generation WLAN The environment mainly considered in the next-generation WLAN is a dense environment having many access points (APs) and a station (STA), and improvements in spectral efficiency and area throughput are discussed in such a dense environment.
- next generation WLAN there is an interest in improving practical performance not only in an indoor environment but also in an outdoor environment, which is not much considered in a conventional WLAN.
- next-generation WLAN there is a great interest in scenarios such as wireless office, smart home, stadium, hotspot, building / apartment, and AP based on the scenario.
- STA are discussing about improving system performance in a dense environment with many STAs.
- next-generation WLAN In addition, in the next-generation WLAN, there will be more discussion about improving system performance in outdoor overlapping basic service set (OBSS) environment, improving outdoor environment performance, and cellular offloading, rather than improving single link performance in one basic service set (BSS). It is expected.

Considering the recent situation in which mobile communication and WLAN technology are discussed together in the small cell and direct-to-direct (D2D) communication area, the technical and business convergence of next-generation WLAN and mobile communication is expected to become more active.
- D2D direct-to-direct
- This disclosure proposes an improved field structure and improved signaling technique related to the mode of operation.
- the present specification proposes an example in which an operation mode may be changed at a preset time point in a transmitting and receiving device.
- various examples of UL MU transmission related to the operation mode are proposed.

- PPDU physical layer protocol data unit
- the first station may be a non-AP station and the second station may correspond to an AP station communicating with the non-AP station.
- an operating mode indicating the number of spatial streams supported by the first station and a reception channel bandwidth is changed from a doze state.
- At the first station receive a trigger frame from the second station.
- the indication information indicating the change of the operation mode is transmitted to the second station based on the trigger frame.
- the first station Since the indication information indicating the change of the operation mode may correspond to a ROM request (or ROMI), the first station requests the second station to change the ROM.
- the reception channel bandwidth may include at least one of 20 MHz, 40 MHz, 80 MHz, and 160 MHz.
- the first station may reduce or increase the number of spatial streams and the receive channel bandwidth via a ROM request.
- the indication information is not applied and an ACK for the indication information is received.
- the indication information may indicate that the number of spatial streams and a reception channel bandwidth increase. This is because the first station receives the trigger frame from the second station before sending the indication information indicating the change of the operation mode to the second station. That is, the trigger frame may be received in an awake state after the dormant state.
- the first station may use the changed Rx value and the second station may apply the Rx value before the change to transmit the trigger frame.
- the changed Rx value In order for the first station to receive the trigger frame transmitted from the second station, the changed Rx value must be greater than the Rx value before the change.

- the indication information may be applied after the first station receives the ACK according to the change state indicator of the operation mode. Accordingly, when the second station transmits the ACK to the first station, the Rx value (the number of spatial streams and the receiving channel bandwidth) may be applied. On the contrary, the indication information may be applied before the first station receives the ACK according to the change state indicator of the operation mode. Accordingly, when the second station transmits the ACK to the first station, the changed Rx value (number of spatial streams and reception channel bandwidth) may be applied.
- the indication information may be included in a data field of the PPDU delivered to the second station.
- the indication information may be included in a medium access control (MAC) header of the data field.

Downlink data already stored does not need to be transmitted to the PPDU according to the reported operation mode (ie, “new operation mode”) through the data field 1410. That is, downlink data already stored is transmitted to the PPDU according to the "previous operation mode", which may help to reduce latency and increase MU throughput.
- the example of FIG. 14 proposes a technique for indicating whether to delay the application of the operation mode (that is, the new operation mode) reported by the AP 1401. Specifically, when the STA 1402 reports a new operation mode through the data field 1410, the AP 1401 transmits a Block ACK 1420 for the corresponding data field 1410. The BA 1420 indicates whether application to a new operation mode is delayed. That is, when “delay_required” is indicated by a specific value (eg, “1”), the AP 1401 uses the previous operation mode instead of the new operation mode for the preset delay time 1410. The PPDU can be transmitted. Meanwhile, after the delay time 1410, the switching time 1420 may exist.

- the delay time and / or transition time of FIG. 14 may be negotiated through a management frame.
- An example of such a management frame includes an association request / response. Since this delay time and / or switching time does not have to exist, it is possible that the length of the corresponding time is set to "0".
- a delay time and / or a transition time may be negotiated through a MAC header (eg, an HE control field) included in the data field 1410.
- the STA 1402 may set the length of the delay time and / or the switching time to “0” in the data field 1410, in which case the AP 1401 may operate without the delay time and / or the switching time. Can be applied.

- FIG. 15 Since the example of FIG. 15 is an example of not applying a new operation mode during an implicitly indicated time interval, no additional signaling regarding delay time is required in the Block ACK 1520.
- the AP 1501 controls the received operation so that the new operation mode is not applied during the first TXOP 1550 interval.
- the application of the information 1200 is suspended. Accordingly, the newly received control information 1200 is not applied to the PPDU 1530 configured within the first TXOP 1550 section, but the operation mode applied to the PPDU 1530 is applied.

- a new second TXOP 1570 may be obtained by the AP 1501 / STA 1502. Since the interval in which the new operation mode is suspended is limited to the first TXOP 1550, the PPDU configured by the AP 1501 during the second TXOP 1570 is configured based on the new operation mode even if there is no separate signal rung. do.

- the AP which receives the ROMI 1830 for the ROM change from the STA, may transmit an ACK / BA 1840 in response to this to confirm that the STA changes the RX NSS and the RX Channel Width for power saving.
- the present specification proposes a method for transmitting a ROMI when a STA in a doze state or a sleep mode for power saving receives a TIM including its information from an AP.
- the STA transmits a ROM request to change its reception mode.
- a ROM request may be transmitted in a request frame for a separate ROM, or may be transmitted together when the STA has information to send to the AP.
- the STA When the STA in the dormant state through the power save mode receives a TIM including its information from the AP, the STA may transmit data by responding with a PS poll frame.
- the method proposed in this specification may transmit the ROMI together when the STA transmits the PS poll frame or transmit the ROMI instead of the PS poll frame.
- information included in the PS poll frame is shown in FIG. 19.
- FIG. 19 shows an example of a PS pole frame.
- the PS poll frame includes an STA address (AID) and an AP address (BSSID).
- AID STA address
- BSSID AP address
- FIG. 20 shows another example of combining and transmitting a ROM request according to the present embodiment.
- an STA that receives a TIM 2010 from an AP may transmit a ROMI 2030 together with a PS poll frame 2020.
- the PS poll frame 2020 and the ROMI 2030 are combined and transmitted.
- 21 shows another example of combining and transmitting a ROM request according to the present embodiment.
- an STA that receives a TIM 2110 from an AP may transmit only the ROMI 2120 instead of the PS poll frame. Since the information included in the PS poll frame includes only information on which of the TIMs 2110 the AP has sent to the plurality of STAs, the information included in the PS poll frame does not include the ROMI (instead of the PS poll frame in response to the TIM 2110). 2220). That is, since the PS poll frame does not include special information other than the STA's own address, the ROMI 2120 may be transmitted in place of the PS poll frame. As such, the STA may perform triggering for transmitting data according to the TIM 2110.
- (4,80) and (2,40) shown in FIGS. 18, 20, and 21 are merely examples of the number of spatial streams and the reception channel bandwidth, but are not limited thereto. That is, the above-described embodiment may be performed including both the number of spatial streams and the case where the number of receiving channels decreases or increases.
- the STA transmits a ROM request to change the Rx value (ie, Rx NSS and Rx BW), and the AP transmits an ACK / BA in response to the ROM request.
- the AP transmits the ACK / BA
- the STA fails to receive the ACK / BA, the STA cannot change the ROM.
- 22 illustrates an example in which an inconsistent state of operation modes occurs between an AP and an STA.
- FIG. 22 assumes a case where a STA requests a ROM change (2210) but does not receive an ACK / BA 2220 for a ROM change from an AP.
- the reason why the STA does not receive the ACK / BA 2220 from the AP is because a collision occurs when the ACK / BA 2220 is transmitted.
- the STA since the STA has not received the ACK / BA 2220 for the ROMI, the STA cannot change the ROM. However, the AP may change the ROM requested by the STA after transmitting the ACK / BA 2220 for the ROMI. That is, since the STA applies the Rx value before the change and the AP applies the new Rx value after the change, an inconsistent state of operation modes occurs between the AP and the STA.
- Embodiment 1) is a case of reducing Rx NSS and Rx BW through a ROM request
- embodiment 2) is a case of increasing Rx NSS and Rx BW through a ROM request.
- FIG. 23 illustrates an example in which an inconsistency state of operation modes occurs when the number of spatial streams of a reported operation mode and a reception channel bandwidth decrease.
- FIG. 23 illustrates a procedure in which an STA receives DL data after an inconsistency in the operation modes described with reference to FIG. 22 occurs. That is, the STA requests the ROM change 2310, but a collision occurs in the transmission process of the AP, so that the ACK / BA 2320 for the ROM change is not received from the AP.
- the Rx NSS and Rx BW values in the receive operation mode may be represented by (Rx NSS, Rx BW).
- the reception mode before the ROM change of the STA is (4,80), but the STA attempts to decrease the value of the reception mode to (2,20) through a ROM request.
- the STA since the STA has not received the ACK / BA 2320 for the ROMI, the STA cannot change the ROM. However, the AP may change the ROM requested by the STA after transmitting the ACK / BA 2320 for the ROMI. That is, since the STA applies the Rx value before the change and the AP applies the new Rx value after the change, an inconsistent state of operation modes occurs between the AP and the STA.
- the STA may receive the DL Data 2330. This is because the new Rx value applied by the AP is smaller than the Rx value before the change of the STA.
- the STA since the AP transmits DL data 2330 by applying a value smaller than the number of spatial streams (Rx NSS) and reception bandwidth (Rx BW) currently supported by the STA, the STA transmits DL data 2330.
- the DL data 2330 may be received through an Rx NSS and a reception bandwidth Rx BW. Accordingly, the STA may transmit a BA 2340 for the DL Data.
- Embodiment 2 When Rx NSS and Rx BW are Increased Through a ROM Request
- FIG. 24 illustrates an example in which an inconsistency state of operation modes occurs when the number of reported spatial streams and the reception channel bandwidth of the operation mode increase.
- FIG. 24 illustrates a procedure in which an STA receives DL data after an inconsistency in the operation modes described with reference to FIG. 22 occurs. That is, although the STA requests the ROM change 2410, a collision occurs in the transmission process of the AP, and thus the ACK / BA 2420 for the ROM change is not received from the AP.
- the Rx NSS and Rx BW values in the receive operation mode may be represented by (Rx NSS, Rx BW).
- the reception mode before the ROM change of the STA is (2,20), but the STA intends to increase the value of the reception mode to (4,80) through a ROM request.
- the STA cannot change the ROM because the STA has not received the ACK / BA 2420 for the ROMI.
- the AP may change the ROM requested by the STA after transmitting the ACK / BA 2420 for the ROMI. That is, since the STA applies the Rx value before the change and the AP applies the new Rx value after the change, an inconsistent state of operation modes occurs between the AP and the STA.
- the STA when the AP transmits the DL Data 2430 by applying a new Rx value, the STA cannot receive the DL Data 2430. This is because the new Rx value applied by the AP is larger than the Rx value before the change of the STA. In other words, since the AP transmits DL data 2430 by applying a value larger than the number of spatial streams (Rx NSS) and the reception bandwidth (Rx BW) currently supported by the STA, the STA transmits DL data 2430. The DL data 2430 may not be received through the Rx NSS and the reception bandwidth Rx BW. This is because the new Rx value exceeds the maximum capacity of the reception bandwidth and the number of spatial streams that the STA can support.
- Rx NSS the number of spatial streams
- Rx BW reception bandwidth
- the present specification describes an example of the UL MU operation and the UL SU operation when the STA changes the ROM in a doze state or a sleep mode. That is, the STA may change its ROM before changing from the dormant state to the awake state.
- 25 shows an example in which the reported operation mode is applied for UL MU operation.
- the STA should transmit an indicator field indicating that the ROM has been changed later.
- the STA receives a trigger frame from the AP before transmitting the indicator field indicating that the ROM has been changed.
- the Rx NSS and Rx BW values of the reception operation mode may be represented by (Rx NSS and Rx BW).
- the UL MU operation since the UL MU operation is described, it is assumed that STA 1 and STA 2 exist.
- the value of the reception operation mode before ROM change of the STA 1 and the STA 2 is (1,20) or the STA 1 or the STA 2 increases the value of the reception operation mode to (2,40) in the dormant state. In other words, it is assumed that at least one of STA 1 and STA 2 increases the Rx value in the dormant state.
- the STA may change the ROM before changing from the dormant state to the awake state.
- the AP may transmit a trigger frame (shown in FIG. 9, 2510) to the STA.
- a trigger frame shown in FIG. 9, 2510
- the STA since the STA applies the changed new Rx value (2,40) and the AP applies the Rx value (1,20) before the change, an inconsistent state of operation modes may occur between the AP and the STA.
- the STA since the Rx value applied by the AP is smaller than the Rx value newly applied by the STA, the STA may receive the trigger frame 2510 transmitted by the AP by applying the Rx value (1,20) before the change.
- the AP receiving the ROMI 2520 may transmit an ACK / BA 2530 for the ROMI to each STA.
- the ACK / BA 2530 may correspond to the ACK for the ROMI transmitted by each STA.
- the AP may transmit the ACK / BA 2530 by applying the Rx value (1,20) before the change or the ACK / BA 2530 as a Non-HT PPDU. This is because the AP transmits one ACK for the ROMI transmitted by each STA. Assume that STA 1 changes the Rx value in the dormant state (in this case, increases to (2,40)) and STA 2 does not change the Rx value in the dormant state.
- the AP must transmit the ACK / BA 2530 by applying the Rx value (1,20) before the change or the ACK / BA 2530 by the non-HT PPDU, so that both the STA 1 and the STA 2 can receive the ACK / BA. 2530 may be received. If the AP transmits the ACK / BA by applying the changed new Rx value (2,40), STA 2 may not receive the ACK / BA because the bandwidth is not correct.
- the problem of inconsistency in the operation mode between the AP and the STA may be solved, and the changed ROM may be applied to both the AP and the STA. That is, in the UL MU transmission scheme, the ROM change should be performed after receiving the ACK / BA applying the Rx value before the change.
- 26 shows an example in which the reported operation mode is applied for UL SU operation.
- the STA should transmit an indicator field indicating that the ROM has been changed later.
- the STA transmits an indicator field indicating that the ROM has been changed on a contention basis in the SU transmission mode.
- the Rx NSS and Rx BW values of the reception operation mode may be represented by (Rx NSS and Rx BW).
- the value of the reception operation mode before the ROM change of the STA is (1,20) or the STA increases the value of the reception operation mode to (2,40) in the dormant state.
- the STA may change the ROM before changing from the dormant state to the awake state.
- the STA since the STA applies the changed new Rx value (2,40) and the AP applies the Rx value (1,20) before the change, an inconsistent state of operation modes may occur between the AP and the STA.
- the AP receiving the ROMI 2610 may transmit an ACK / BA 2620 for the ROMI to the STA.
- the AP may transmit the ACK / BA 2620 by applying the changed new Rx value (2,40) or transmit the ACK / BA 2530 as a non-HT PPDU.
- the AP since the ACK / BA 2620 corresponds to the ACK for the ROMI transmitted by one STA, the AP does not affect the other STA even if the AP transmits the ACK / BA by applying the changed new Rx value.
- the AP may first perform ROM change and transmit ACK / BA to which the changed new Rx value is applied.
- the STA may use a 1-bit field to indicate whether the ROM change is to be performed before receiving the ACK / BA or after receiving the ACK / BA. That is, the ROM change point subfield may be added to the ROMI to indicate the timing at which the ROM change is performed. For example, if the ROM change point subfield is 0, the ROM change may be performed before receiving the ACK / BA. If the ROM change point subfield is 1, the ROM change may be performed after the ACK / BA is received. The reverse is also possible (vice versa).
- the STA may change the ROM from the dormant state before transmitting the ROMI.
- the AP responds with an ACK / BA for the ROMI, the AP does not know whether the STA has changed its ROM. Therefore, the STA may inform the AP whether or not the ROM has been changed in the ROM change status subfield 2710 by using 1 bit in the ROMI.
- a ROM change status subfield 2710 is further included in a ROMI corresponding to control information used for reporting on an operation mode. If the ROM change status subfield 2710 indicates 0, the STA may change the ROM after receiving the ACK / BA. Therefore, the AP should apply the Rx value before the change to transmit the ACK / BA. If the ROM change status subfield 2710 indicates 1, the STA may change the ROM before receiving the ACK / BA. Therefore, the AP must apply the changed new Rx value to transmit ACK / BA.
- FIG. 28 is a flowchart illustrating a procedure of processing control information for configuring a PPDU according to the present embodiment.
- the first station may be a non-AP station and the second station may correspond to an AP station communicating with the non-AP station.
- step S2810 in the first station, an operating mode indicating the number of spatial streams supported by the first station and a reception channel bandwidth is changed from a doze state.
- step S2820 at the first station, a trigger frame is received from the second station.
- the first station transmits, to the second station, indication information indicating change of the operation mode based on the trigger frame.
- the first station Since the indication information indicating the change of the operation mode may correspond to a ROM request (or ROMI), the first station requests the second station to change the ROM.
- the reception channel bandwidth may include at least one of 20 MHz, 40 MHz, 80 MHz, and 160 MHz.
- the first station may reduce or increase the number of spatial streams and the receive channel bandwidth via a ROM request.
- step S2840 at the first station, the indication information is not applied and an ACK for the indication information is received.
- the indication information may indicate that the number of spatial streams and a reception channel bandwidth increase. This is because the first station receives the trigger frame from the second station before sending the indication information indicating the change of the operation mode to the second station. That is, the trigger frame may be received in an awake state after the dormant state.
- the first station may use the changed Rx value and the second station may apply the Rx value before the change to transmit the trigger frame.
- the changed Rx value In order for the first station to receive the trigger frame transmitted from the second station, the changed Rx value must be greater than the Rx value before the change.
- the indication information may be transmitted by UL MU transmission (Uplink Muti-User transmission) scheme. That is, the indication information may be transmitted through a trigger-based PPDU (PPDU) based on the trigger frame.
- UL MU transmission Uplink Muti-User transmission
- PPDU trigger-based PPDU
- the indication information may further include a change status indicator of an operation mode.
- the change state indicator of the operation mode may indicate a time point at which the indication information is applied.
- the indication information may be applied after the first station receives the ACK according to the change state indicator of the operation mode. Accordingly, when the second station transmits the ACK to the first station, the Rx value (the number of spatial streams and the receiving channel bandwidth) may be applied. On the contrary, the indication information may be applied before the first station receives the ACK according to the change state indicator of the operation mode. Accordingly, when the second station transmits the ACK to the first station, the changed Rx value (number of spatial streams and reception channel bandwidth) may be applied.
- the indication information may be included in a data field of the PPDU delivered to the second station.
- the indication information may be included in a medium access control (MAC) header of the data field.
- MAC medium access control

Abstract
La présente invention propose un procédé de traitement de signal permettant de changer un mode de fonctionnement pour transmettre une PPDU dans un système LAN sans fil. En particulier, une première station change, dans un état de repos, un mode de fonctionnement indiquant le nombre de flux spatiaux et une bande passante de canal de réception prise en charge par la première station. La première station reçoit une trame de déclenchement, d'une seconde station. La première station transmet, à la seconde station, des informations d'indication indiquant un changement du mode de fonctionnement, sur la base de la trame de déclenchement. La première station reçoit, sans que les informations d'indication lui soient appliquées, un ACK des informations d'indication.
