Abstract

La présente demande concerne le domaine des communications, et divulgue un procédé de communication et un appareil, qui peuvent assurer que la synchronisation d'une extrémité de réception satisfait aux exigences de synchronisation SIFS. Le procédé de communication consiste : à recevoir une première PPDU; et à analyser un en-tête de trame de la première PPDU, l'en-tête de trame comprenant un premier champ, et le premier champ étant utilisé pour indiquer de renvoyer une trame de réponse immédiate. En d'autres termes, lors de l'analyse de l'en-tête de trame de la première PPDU, l'extrémité de réception peut déterminer selon l'indication du premier champ dans l'en-tête de trame de la première PPDU que la trame de réponse immédiate doit être renvoyée, de sorte que l'extrémité de réception évite uniquement de pouvoir déterminer si la trame de réponse immédiate doit être renvoyée après qu'une couche MAC achève l'analyse d'une MPDU de la première PPDU. C'est-à-dire, dans la présente demande, il peut être déterminé à l'avance que la trame de réponse immédiate doit être renvoyée, de sorte que le traitement de réception de l'extrémité de réception puisse être plus flexible, garantissant ainsi que la synchronisation de l'extrémité de réception satisfait aux exigences de synchronisation SIFS.
