[0039] The following will be combined with the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present disclosure to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present disclosure. Obviously, the embodiments described are only part of the embodiments of the present disclosure and not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present disclosure, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making any creative efforts shall fall within the scope of protection of the present disclosure.

[0040] The embodiments of the present disclosure provide a communication method, an electronic device, and a storage medium for providing a P2P communication mode.

[0041] Among them, the method and the device are based on the same application concept. Since the principles of solving problems by the method and the device are similar, the implementation of the device and the method can refer to each other, and the repeated parts will not be repeated.

[0042] As a first example, referring to FIG1 , an example of a communication method provided by various embodiments of the present disclosure is described.

[0043] As shown in Figure 1, AP1 (Access Point) is attached to AP MLD1. AP1 acts as a TXOP holder, allocating TXOP slots to its associated STAs. STA1 is attached to non-AP MLD1 (STA1 can be the first STA in this embodiment of the disclosure). STA1 is the station associated with the AP. STA2 is attached to non-AP MLD2 (STA2 can be the second STA in this embodiment of the disclosure) and is in EMLSR mode. STA2 establishes a TDLS link with STA1. AP1, STA1, and STA2 are in the same Basic Service Set (BSS).

[0044] As shown in FIG1 , AP1 sends a first radio frame to STA1 and STA2 respectively. The first radio frame may be a MU-RTS TXS Trigger frame.

[0045] The first wireless frame carries first identification information, and the first identification information indicates: the trigger type of the first wireless frame for the site device STA; the trigger type includes: the first trigger type or the second trigger type; the first trigger type includes triggering the first STA to send data to the AP1 or other STAs in the basic service set within the time slot allocated by the AP1; the second trigger type includes triggering the second STA working in the EMLSR mode link to switch from the listening working mode to the transceiver operation mode.

[0046] In addition, when the trigger type is the second trigger type, the AP1 also allocates a time slot for P2P communication to the second STA when waking up the second STA in the EMLSR.

[0047] That is to say, when the first wireless frame triggers the second trigger type, on the one hand, it triggers the second STA working in the EMLSR mode link to switch from the listening working mode to the transceiver operation mode. On the other hand, when the AP1 wakes up the second STA in the EMLSR, it also allocates a time slot for P2P communication to it, so that the second STA and the first STA can perform P2P communication in the shared transmission opportunity.

[0048] Optionally, the first identification information is carried in a user information field of the first radio frame. For example, the user information field may be a user information (User Info) field of a scheduled site, or a user information field of a site that establishes a TDLS link with the scheduled site and is in EMLSR operation mode.

[0049] Optionally, the user information field may be the EHT variant User Info field of the MU-RTS TXS Trigger frame. As an example, the format of the EHT variant User Info field may be as shown in Table 1:

[0050] Table 1:

[0051] Specifically, after AP1 sends the MU-RTS TXS Trigger frame to STA1 and STA2, STA1 and STA2 can match the AID12 field in the user information field to determine the corresponding trigger type. For example, taking STA1 as an example, the information identified by the AID12 field in the MU-RTS TXS Trigger frame corresponds to STA1. Therefore, the trigger type identified by the corresponding first identification information in the user information field is the trigger type for STA1.

[0052] Optionally, in the MU-RTS TXS Trigger frame, the trigger type can be indicated as the first trigger type by setting the first identification information to a first parameter value; in this case, the site device corresponding to the user information field (i.e., STA1) is the scheduled site device; AP1 allocates a transmission opportunity to STA1.

[0053] As an example, the first parameter value may be 1.

[0054] Optionally, in the MU-RTS TXS Trigger frame, the first identification information can be set to a second parameter value to indicate that the trigger type is the second trigger type; in this case, the site device corresponding to the user information field (i.e., STA2) switches from the listening working mode to the transceiver operation mode after receiving the MU-RTS TXS Trigger frame.

[0055] As an example, the second parameter value may be 0.

[0056] In addition, the first identification bit is set to the second parameter value, and the user information field may further include a first subfield, where the first subfield identifies a time slot available for P2P transmission within the transmission opportunity allocated by the AP.

[0057] Optionally, the first subfield may be carried in the EHT variant User Info field of the MU-RTS TXS Trigger frame.

[0058] As an example, the format of the EHT variant User Info field may be as shown in Table 2:

[0059] Table 2:

[0060] After receiving the MU-RTS TXS Trigger frame, STA1 and STA2 can respond according to the AID12 field in the user information field.

[0061] STA1 responds to AP1 with a CTS frame permission based on the resources identified by the RU Allocation field in the MU-RTS TXS Trigger frame. STA1 can then transmit data to AP1 or other STAs in its basic service set within the time slot identified by the Allocation Duration subfield in the User Information field. Other STAs are stations that have established a TDLS link with the first STA, for example, STA2.

[0062] After receiving the MU-RTS TXS Trigger frame, STA2 can reply to the AP with a CTS frame based on the resources allocated by the RU Allocation field in the User Information field of the MU-RTS TXS Trigger frame. In addition, STA2 switches from the listening mode to the transceiver mode. It maintains the transceiver state within the time slot specified by the first subfield (Duration for P2P) and has the ability to receive or transmit data. For example, STA2 in the transceiver mode can receive the RTS frame sent by STA1, and after feeding back the CTS frame to STA1, STA2 can transmit P2P data with STA1.

[0063] In an embodiment of the present disclosure, the AP determines and sends a first wireless frame to the STA. The first identification information carried in the first wireless frame can indicate a first trigger type or a second trigger type. This enables the AP to allocate transmission opportunities to its target site (first STA) within the TXOP sharing mechanism while waking up the site device (second STA) in the EMLSR, so that the site device in the EMLSR switches from the listening working mode to the transceiver operation working mode, thereby realizing P2P communication within the shared transmission mechanism under the EMLSR link, and improving the efficiency of channel competition and the P2P transmission efficiency and reliability.

[0064] Referring to Figure 2 , an embodiment of the present disclosure provides a communication method. Optionally, the method can be applied to an access point (AP) device. Optionally, in this embodiment, the AP is, for example, a device with wireless-to-wired bridging functionality, responsible for extending services provided by the wired network to the wireless network. The station device is, for example, an electronic device with wireless network access functionality, providing a frame delivery service to enable information transmission. Optionally, in this embodiment, the STA can be a device that supports multiple connections, for example, a non-AP MLD.

[0065] The method may include the following steps:

[0066] Step 201: Determine a first radio frame.

[0067] The first radio frame includes first identification information, and the first identification information indicates: a trigger type of the first radio frame to the station device STA; the trigger type includes: a first trigger type or a second trigger type;

[0068] The first trigger type includes triggering the first STA to send data to the AP or other STAs in the basic service set within the time slot allocated by the AP;

[0069] The second trigger type includes triggering a second STA working in the EMLSR mode link to switch from a listening working mode to a transceiver operating mode.

[0070] Step 202: Send the first wireless frame.

[0071] In WLAN, Transmit Opportunity (TXOP) is introduced. When an access point device (AP) acts as a TXOP holder, it sends a trigger frame to allocate a portion of the held TXOP time to its associated station device STA. The STA can send uplink data to the AP or perform point-to-point (P2P) transmission with other stations within the allocated time slot.

[0072] P2P transmission refers to data transmission between two non-AP stations over a P2P link established using Tunneled Direct Link Setup (TDLS). This eliminates the need for an access point, avoids delays caused by network congestion, and effectively improves transmission efficiency. Multi-Link Devices (MLDs) also support TDLS. Within a Basic Service Set (BSS), non-AP MLDs can discover TDLS-capable stations and negotiate to establish a P2P link through the TDLS discovery, establishment, and confirmation processes.

[0073] Furthermore, the enhanced–multilink single radio (EMLSR) mode has been introduced for extreme high-throughput (EHT) communications. A non-AP MLD can communicate with an AP MLD supporting EMLSR mode in EMLSR mode. EMLSR mode means that a non-AP MLD can communicate with an AP MLD over only one link at a time, but can monitor channels over multiple links. In other words, when in EMLSR mode, a non-AP MLD can monitor channels and receive initial control frames from an AP MLD.

[0074] In an embodiment of the present disclosure, a P2P communication method in EMLSR mode is proposed, where the AP determines and sends a first wireless frame to allocate a transmission opportunity to a first STA within a TXOP sharing mechanism, and wakes up a second STA in EMLSR mode, so that the second STA switches from a listening working mode to a transceiver operating mode, so as to facilitate P2P communication within a shared transmission opportunity.

[0075] Optionally, the first wireless frame may include a multi-user request to send TXOP sharing (MU-RTS TXS) trigger frame.

[0076] The first STA includes a station associated with the AP, the second STA includes a station that establishes a TDLS with the first STA, and the second STA operates in EMLSR operation mode; and the second STA is one or more non-AP STAs attached to a non-AP MLD.

[0077] The first radio frame carries first identification information, where the first identification information indicates a trigger type of the first radio frame for a STA; the trigger type includes a first trigger type or a second trigger type. The first trigger type includes triggering the first STA to transmit data to the AP or other STAs in its basic service set within a timeslot allocated by the AP; the second trigger type includes triggering a second STA operating in an EMLSR mode link to switch from a listening mode to a transceiver mode.

[0078] In an embodiment of the present disclosure, the AP determines and sends a first wireless frame to the STA. The first identification information carried in the first wireless frame can indicate a first trigger type or a second trigger type. This enables the AP to allocate transmission opportunities to its target site (first STA) within the TXOP sharing mechanism while waking up the site device (second STA) in the EMLSR, so that the site device in the EMLSR switches from the listening working mode to the transceiver operation working mode, thereby realizing P2P communication within the shared transmission mechanism under the EMLSR link, and improving the efficiency of channel competition and the P2P transmission efficiency and reliability.

[0079] Optionally, in an embodiment of the present disclosure, the first identification information is carried in a user information field of the first radio frame. For example, the user information field may be a user information (User Info) field of the called site, or a user information field of a site that establishes a TDLS link with the called site and is in EMLSR operation mode.

[0080] Optionally, the user information field may be an EHT variant User Info field of a MU-RTS TXS Trigger frame. As an example, the format of the EHT variant User Info field may be as shown in Table 1.

[0081] Specifically, after the AP sends the MU-RTS TXS Trigger frame to the first STA and the second STA, the first STA and the second STA can match the AID12 field in the user information field to determine their corresponding trigger types. For example, taking the first STA as an example, the information identified by the AID12 field in the MU-RTS TXS Trigger frame corresponds to the corresponding first STA. Then, the trigger type identified by the corresponding first identification information in the user information field is the trigger type for the first STA.

[0082] The present disclosure provides a communication method, which is applied to an access point device (AP). The method may include the following steps:

[0083] A first radio frame is determined.

[0084] The first radio frame includes first identification information, and the first identification information indicates: a trigger type of the first radio frame to the station device STA; the trigger type includes: a first trigger type or a second trigger type;

[0085] The first trigger type includes triggering the first STA to send data to the AP or other STAs in the basic service set within the time slot allocated by the AP;

[0086] The second trigger type includes triggering a second STA working in the EMLSR mode link to switch from a listening working mode to a transceiver operating mode.

[0087] The first radio frame is sent.

[0088] The first identification information is carried in the user information field of the first wireless frame.

[0089] The first identification information is set to a first parameter value, indicating that the trigger type is the first trigger type, and the site device corresponding to the user information field is a scheduled site device;

[0090] The method further comprises:

[0091] Allocate a transmission opportunity for the scheduled site device.

[0092] As an example, the first parameter value may be 1; that is, when the first identification information is set to 1, it indicates that the trigger type is the first trigger type, and the site device corresponding to the user information field is a scheduled site device.

[0093] The scheduled site device is a site associated with the AP. In the TXOP sharing mechanism, since the AP serves as a TXOP holder, the scheduled site device can serve as a site with which the AP shares transmission opportunities. Therefore, when the first identification information is set to the first parameter value, the AP allocates a transmission opportunity to the scheduled site device.

[0094] The present disclosure provides a communication method, which is applied to an access point device (AP). The method may include the following steps:

[0095] A first radio frame is determined.

[0096] The first radio frame includes first identification information, and the first identification information indicates: a trigger type of the first radio frame to the station device STA; the trigger type includes: a first trigger type or a second trigger type;

[0097] The first trigger type includes triggering the first STA to send data to the AP or other STAs in the basic service set within the time slot allocated by the AP;

[0098] The second trigger type includes triggering a second STA working in the EMLSR mode link to switch from a listening working mode to a transceiver operating mode.

[0099] The first radio frame is sent.

[0100] The first identification information is carried in the user information field of the first wireless frame.

[0101] The first identification information is set to a second parameter value, indicating that the trigger type is the second trigger type. After receiving the first wireless frame, the site device corresponding to the user information field switches from the monitoring working mode to the transceiver operation mode.

[0102] As an example, the second parameter value can be 0; that is, when the first identification information is set to 0, it indicates that the trigger type is the second trigger type, and the site device corresponding to the user information field is not a scheduled site device. After receiving the first wireless frame, it switches from the listening working mode to the transceiver operation mode.

[0103] Optionally, in the embodiment of the present disclosure, after sending the first radio frame, the method further includes:

[0104] A time slot for P2P communication is allocated to the second STA.

[0105] Specifically, when the first identification information is set to the second parameter value (i.e., indicating the second trigger type), after receiving the first wireless frame, the second STA working in the EMLSR mode link switches from the listening working mode to the transceiver operation mode. On the other hand, the AP also allocates a time slot that can be used for P2P communication to the second STA, so that the second STA and the first STA can perform P2P communication within the shared transmission opportunity.

[0106] Optionally, in an embodiment of the present disclosure, the user information field includes a first subfield, and the first subfield identifies a P2P transmission time slot within the transmission opportunity allocated by the AP.

[0107] When the first flag is set to the second parameter value, the user information field may further include a first subfield, and the first subfield may identify the P2P transmission duration.

[0108] Optionally, the first subfield may be carried in the EHT variant User Info field of the MU-RTS TXS Trigger frame.

[0109] As an example, the format of the EHT variant User Info field may be as shown in Table 2.

[0110] The present disclosure provides a communication method, which is applied to an access point device (AP). The method may include the following steps:

[0111] A first radio frame is determined.

[0112] The first radio frame includes first identification information, and the first identification information indicates: a trigger type of the first radio frame to the station device STA; the trigger type includes: a first trigger type or a second trigger type;

[0113] The first trigger type includes triggering the first STA to send data to the AP or other STAs in the basic service set within the time slot allocated by the AP;

[0114] The second trigger type includes triggering a second STA working in the EMLSR mode link to switch from a listening working mode to a transceiver operating mode.

[0115] The first radio frame is sent.

[0116] After sending the first radio frame, the method further includes:

[0117] receiving a CTS frame replied by the first STA, wherein the CTS frame is sent by the first STA according to the resources identified by the RU Allocation field in the first radio frame;

[0118] The CTS frame identifier: the first STA transmits data to the AP or other STAs in the basic service set within the time slot identified by the Allocation Duration subfield carried by the corresponding user information field in the first radio frame.

[0119] As an example, a station that receives the MU-RTS TXS Trigger frame may respond according to the user information corresponding to the AID12 field in the user information field.

[0120] For example, the first STA (i.e., the scheduled station) responds to the AP with a CTS frame, granting permission to send the CTS frame based on the resources identified by the RU Allocation field in the first radio frame. In this way, the first STA can transmit data to the AP or other STAs in its basic service set within the time slot identified by the Allocation Duration subfield carried in the User Information field. The other STAs are stations that have established a TDLS link with the first STA.

[0121] In an embodiment of the present disclosure, the AP determines and sends a first wireless frame to the STA. The first identification information carried in the first wireless frame can indicate a first trigger type or a second trigger type. This enables the AP to allocate transmission opportunities to its target site (first STA) within the TXOP sharing mechanism while waking up the site device (second STA) in the EMLSR, so that the site device in the EMLSR switches from the listening working mode to the transceiver operation working mode, thereby realizing P2P communication within the shared transmission mechanism under the EMLSR link, and improving the efficiency of channel competition and the P2P transmission efficiency and reliability.

[0122] The disclosed embodiment provides a communication method, which is applied to an access point device (AP). The method may include the following steps:

[0123] determining a first radio frame;

[0124] The first radio frame includes first identification information, and the first identification information indicates: a trigger type of the first radio frame to the station device STA; the trigger type includes: a first trigger type or a second trigger type;

[0125] The first trigger type includes triggering the first STA to send data to the AP or other STAs in the basic service set within the time slot allocated by the AP;

[0126] The second trigger type includes triggering a second STA working in the EMLSR mode link to switch from a listening working mode to a transceiver operating mode;

[0127] The first radio frame is sent.

[0128] Optionally, the first identification information is carried in a user information field of the first wireless frame.

[0129] Optionally, the first identification information is set to a first parameter value, indicating that the trigger type is the first trigger type, and the site device corresponding to the user information field is a scheduled site device;

[0130] The method further comprises:

[0132] Optionally, the first identification information is set to a second parameter value, indicating that the trigger type is the second trigger type, and the site device corresponding to the user information field switches from the listening working mode to the transceiver operation mode after receiving the first wireless frame.

[0133] Optionally, after sending the first radio frame, the method further includes:

[0134] A time slot for P2P communication is allocated to the second STA.

[0135] Optionally, the user information field includes a first subfield, where the first subfield identifies a P2P transmission time slot within the transmission opportunity allocated by the AP.

[0136] Optionally, the first radio frame includes a multi-user transmission request transmission opportunity sharing trigger frame;

[0137] The first identification information and / or the first subfield is carried in the EHT variant User Info field.

[0138] Optionally, after sending the first radio frame, the method further includes:

[0139] receiving a CTS frame replied by the first STA, wherein the CTS frame is sent by the first STA according to the resources identified by the RU Allocation field in the first radio frame;

[0140] The CTS frame identifier: the first STA transmits data to the AP or other STAs in the basic service set within the time slot identified by the Allocation Duration subfield carried by the corresponding user information field in the first radio frame.

[0144] The first radio frame includes first identification information, and the first identification information indicates: a trigger type of the first radio frame to the station device STA; the trigger type includes: a first trigger type or a second trigger type;

[0145] The first trigger type includes triggering the first STA to send data to the AP or other STAs in the basic service set within the time slot allocated by the AP;

[0146] The second trigger type includes triggering a second STA working in the EMLSR mode link to switch from a listening working mode to a transceiver operating mode.

[0147] In an embodiment of the present disclosure, a P2P communication method in EMLSR mode is proposed, where the AP determines and sends a first wireless frame to allocate a transmission opportunity to a first STA within a TXOP sharing mechanism, and wakes up a second STA in EMLSR mode, so that the second STA switches from a listening working mode to a transceiver operating mode, so as to facilitate P2P communication within a shared transmission opportunity.

[0148] Optionally, the first wireless frame may include a multi-user request to send TXOP sharing (MU-RTS TXS) trigger frame.

[0149] The first STA includes a station associated with the AP, the second STA includes a station that establishes a TDLS link with the first STA and operates in EMLSR mode, and the second STA is one or more non-AP STAs attached to a non-AP MLD.

[0150] The first radio frame carries first identification information, where the first identification information indicates a trigger type of the first radio frame for a STA; the trigger type includes a first trigger type or a second trigger type. The first trigger type includes triggering the first STA to transmit data to the AP or other STAs in its basic service set within a timeslot allocated by the AP; the second trigger type includes triggering a second STA operating in an EMLSR mode link to switch from a listening mode to a transceiver mode.

[0151] In the embodiment of the present disclosure, the second STA receives the first wireless frame, and the first identification information carried in the first wireless frame can indicate the first trigger type or the second trigger type, thereby realizing that within the TXOP sharing mechanism, the AP allocates a transmission opportunity to its target site (the first STA) while waking up the site device (the second STA) in the EMLSR, so that the site device in the EMLSR switches from the listening working mode to the transceiver operation working mode, realizing P2P communication within the shared transmission mechanism under the EMLSR link, and improving the efficiency of channel competition and the P2P transmission efficiency and reliability.

[0152] Optionally, in an embodiment of the present disclosure, the first identification information is carried in a user information field of the first radio frame. For example, the user information field may be a user information (User Info) field of the called site, or a user information field of a TDLS site that establishes a TDLS operation mode with the called site.

[0153] Optionally, the user information field may be an EHT variant User Info field of a MU-RTS TXS Trigger frame. As an example, the format of the EHT variant User Info field may be as shown in Table 1.

[0154] Specifically, after the AP sends the MU-RTS TXS Trigger frame to the first STA and the second STA, the first STA and the second STA can match the AID12 field in the user information field to determine their corresponding trigger types. For example, taking the second STA as an example, the information identified by the AID12 field in the MU-RTS TXS Trigger frame corresponds to the corresponding second STA. Therefore, the trigger type identified by the corresponding first identification information in the user information field is the trigger type for the second STA.

[0155] An embodiment of the present disclosure provides a communication method, which is applied to a second station device STA. The method may include the following steps:

[0156] A first radio frame is determined.

[0157] The first radio frame includes first identification information, and the first identification information indicates: a trigger type of the first radio frame to the station device STA; the trigger type includes: a first trigger type or a second trigger type;

[0158] The first trigger type includes triggering the first STA to send data to the AP or other STAs in the basic service set within the time slot allocated by the AP;

[0159] The second trigger type includes triggering a second STA working in the EMLSR mode link to switch from a listening working mode to a transceiver operating mode.

[0160] The first radio frame is sent.

[0161] The first identification information is carried in the user information field of the first wireless frame.

[0162] The first identification information is set to a first parameter value, indicating that the trigger type is the first trigger type, and the site device corresponding to the user information field is a scheduled site device.

[0163] As an example, the first parameter value may be 1; that is, when the first identification information is set to 1, it indicates that the trigger type is the first trigger type, and the site device corresponding to the user information field is a scheduled site device.

[0164] The scheduled site device is a site associated with the AP. In the TXOP sharing mechanism, since the AP serves as a TXOP holder, the scheduled site device can serve as a site with which the AP shares transmission opportunities. Therefore, when the first identification information is set to the first parameter value, the AP allocates a transmission opportunity to the scheduled site device.

[0165] An embodiment of the present disclosure provides a communication method, which is applied to a second station device STA. The method may include the following steps:

[0166] A first radio frame is determined.

[0167] The first radio frame includes first identification information, and the first identification information indicates: a trigger type of the first radio frame to the station device STA; the trigger type includes: a first trigger type or a second trigger type;

[0168] The first trigger type includes triggering the first STA to send data to the AP or other STAs in the basic service set within the time slot allocated by the AP;

[0169] The second trigger type includes triggering a second STA working in the EMLSR mode link to switch from a listening working mode to a transceiver operating mode.

[0170] The first radio frame is sent.

[0171] The first identification information is carried in the user information field of the first wireless frame.

[0172] The first identification information is set to a second parameter value, indicating that the trigger type is the second trigger type. After receiving the first wireless frame, the site device corresponding to the user information field switches from the monitoring working mode to the transceiver operation mode.

[0173] As an example, the second parameter value can be 0; that is, when the first identification information is set to 0, it indicates that the trigger type is the second trigger type, and the site device corresponding to the user information field is not a scheduled site device. After receiving the first wireless frame, it switches from the listening working mode to the transceiver operation mode.

[0174] Optionally, in an embodiment of the present disclosure, the method further includes:

[0175] Receive a time slot for P2P communication allocated by the AP.

[0176] Specifically, when the first identification information is set to the second parameter value (i.e., indicating the second trigger type), after receiving the first wireless frame, the second STA working in the EMLSR mode link switches from the listening working mode to the transceiver operation mode. On the other hand, it also receives the time slot allocated by the AP that can be used for P2P communication, so that the second STA and the first STA can perform P2P communication within the shared transmission opportunity.

[0177] Optionally, in an embodiment of the present disclosure, the user information field includes a first subfield, and the first subfield identifies a P2P transmission time slot within the transmission opportunity allocated by the AP.

[0178] When the first flag is set to the second parameter value, the user information field may further include a first subfield, and the first subfield may identify the P2P transmission duration.

[0179] Optionally, the first subfield may be carried in the EHT variant User Info field of the MU-RTS TXS Trigger frame.

[0180] As an example, the format of the EHT variant User Info field may be as shown in Table 2.

[0184] The first trigger type includes triggering the first STA to send data to the AP or other STAs in the basic service set within the time slot allocated by the AP;

[0185] The second trigger type includes triggering a second STA working in the EMLSR mode link to switch from a listening working mode to a transceiver operating mode.

[0186] The first radio frame is sent.

[0187] The method further comprises:

[0188] According to the RU Allocation field in the first radio frame, a CTS frame is replied to the AP, and the monitoring working mode is switched to the transceiver operating mode.

[0189] Optionally, after receiving the MU-RTS TXS Trigger frame, the second STA may reply a CTS frame to the AP based on the resources allocated by the RU Allocation field in the user information field in the MU-RTS TXS Trigger frame. In addition, the second STA switches from the listening working mode to the transceiver operation mode, and maintains the transceiver state within the time slot specified by the first subfield (Duration for P2P), and has the ability to receive or transmit data. For example, the second STA in the transceiver operation mode can receive the RTS frame sent by the first STA, and after feeding back the CTS frame to the first STA, the second STA can transmit P2P data with the first STA.

[0190] In the embodiment of the present disclosure, the second STA receives the first wireless frame, and the first identification information carried in the first wireless frame can indicate the first trigger type or the second trigger type, thereby realizing that within the TXOP sharing mechanism, the AP allocates a transmission opportunity to its target site (the first STA) while waking up the site device (the second STA) in the EMLSR, so that the site device in the EMLSR switches from the listening working mode to the transceiver operation working mode, realizing P2P communication within the shared transmission mechanism under the EMLSR link, and improving the efficiency of channel competition and the P2P transmission efficiency and reliability.
