Abstract

A method and apparatus for operating in a wireless LAN system are disclosed. A method performed by a first station (STA) in a wireless LAN system according to one embodiment of the present disclosure may include: receiving a first frame from a second STA, which contains information relating to channel access to at least one non-primary channel; performing a first backoff procedure on the first non-primary channel of the at least one non-primary channel based on the first frame; and transmitting a second frame to the second STA or receiving the second frame from the second STA on at least one channel, including the first non-primary channel, based on the first frame and the first backoff procedure.
