AI Technical Summary
Technical Problem
Existing wireless local area network (WLAN) technologies face challenges in efficiently managing transmission opportunities (TXOP) and network allocation vectors (NAV) to ensure seamless data transmission and prevent unauthorized access to the wireless medium.
Method used
The method involves a station (STA) operating as a TXOP responder receiving a control frame from a TXOP owner to initiate a frame exchange and transmitting a response frame with pause information, indicating a duration during which the TXOP owner ceases transmission to the responder.
Benefits of technology
This solution enhances TXOP operation in WLANs by allowing for dynamic adjustment of transmission durations and preventing collisions, thereby improving network efficiency and reliability.

Abstract
A station operating as a transmission opportunity (TXOP) responder receives a control frame to initiate a frame exchange from a TXOP owner, and transmits a response frame as a response to the control frame. The response frame includes pause information which indicates a pause duration during which the TXOP owner ceases to transmit a frame to the TXOP responder.
