Since the first AP will not notify the access management device that the second STA enters the sleep state, the access management device will determine that the second STA is in the wake-up state and allocate time-frequency resources to the second STA. Specifically, the access management device sends a first scheduling message to the first AP, and the first AP uses the first time-frequency resource indicated by the first scheduling message to perform data interaction with the second STA.
- Application Scenario 2 The access management device allocates time-frequency resources to the second STA associated with the second AP.

For example, if the scheduling flag is 0, it means that the AP cannot participate in the scheduling decision of the access management device, and if the scheduling flag is 1, it means that the AP can participate in the scheduling decision of the access management device. Scheduling decisions.
- the energy-saving flag is used to indicate the energy-saving state of the STA associated with the AP. For example, an energy-saving flag of 0 indicates that the STA is in an awake state, and an energy-saving flag of 1 indicates that the STA is in a sleep state.
- the flow identity mark is used to indicate the types of services transmitted between the AP and the STA.
- the access management device may determine that the second STA associated with the second AP is in an awake state by comparing the state information of each AP, and allocate time-frequency resources to the second STA. Specifically, the access management device sends a first scheduling message to the second AP, and the second AP uses the first time-frequency resource indicated by the first scheduling message to perform data interaction with the second STA.
- the first AP may know whether the first STA is in an awake state or in a sleep state. If the first STA enters the dormant state from the awake state, the first AP sends a message to the access management device to notify the first STA to enter the dormant state. Furthermore, the access management device performs time-frequency resource scheduling according to the message reported by the first AP, so as to allocate the time-frequency resource to the STA in the wake-up state. In this way, even if there is data to be transmitted between the first AP and the first STA, time-frequency resources will not be occupied for data interaction with the first STA in a dormant state, thereby avoiding waste of time-frequency resources.
- the first AP will also notify the access management device, and then the access management device will re-allocate time-frequency resources for the first STA .
- the following will be introduced through specific embodiments.
- FIG. 8 is a schematic diagram of a second embodiment of a method for allocating time-frequency resources in this application.
- the method for allocating time-frequency resources includes the following steps.
- the first AP acquires the energy saving status information of the first STA.
- the first STA When the energy saving state of the first STA changes, the first STA notifies the first AP, and then the first AP updates the locally stored energy saving state information of the first STA.
- the energy-saving state information of the first STA is that the first STA enters the wake-up state. It should be understood that, for a specific implementation manner for the first AP to obtain the energy-saving status information of the first STA, reference may be made to the relevant description of step 303 in the embodiment shown in FIG. 3 , and details are not repeated here.
- the first AP sends a second message to the access management device.
- the second message sent by the first AP to the access management device is used to instruct the first STA associated with the first AP to enter the wake-up state.
- the message format of the second message in this embodiment is similar to that of the first message in the embodiment shown in FIG. 3 above, and the only difference lies in the content of the indication.
- the second message includes the second message type, the identifier of the first AP, and the identifier of the first STA.
- the format of the second message reference may be made to the related introduction to the format of the first message in the embodiment shown in FIG. 3 , and details are not repeated here.
- the second message may also include MCS, TID, and the size of data to be transmitted between the first AP and the first STA, so that the access management device can more reasonably allocate time-frequency resources. It should be noted that, if the second message adopts the message format shown in FIG. 5 above, the MCS, TID and the size of the data to be transmitted are carried in the message content field. If the second message adopts the message format shown in FIG. 6 above, the MCS, TID and the size of the data to be transmitted are carried in the payload field.
- the access management device sends a second scheduling message to the first AP.
- the access management device updates the locally stored state information of the first STA according to the second message reported by the first AP.
- the energy-saving flag will be set to 0 to indicate that the first STA is in the wake-up state, and the scheduling flag to be 1 to indicate that the first AP can participate in the scheduling decision of the access management device.
- the access management device may allocate the second time-frequency resource to the first STA according to information such as MCS, TID, and data size to be transmitted in the second message, and send a second scheduling message to the first AP to notify the Scheduling decisions.
- the first AP performs data interaction with the first STA by using the second time-frequency resource.
- the first AP performs data interaction with the first STA by using the second time-frequency resource indicated by the second scheduling message.
