Abstract

The present disclosure relates to a dynamic power saving method and apparatus using an action frame in a wireless local area network (WLAN) communication system. The method performed by a first station in a WLAN communication system, according to one embodiment of the present disclosure, comprises the steps of: transmitting, to a second station, a first action frame including dynamic power saving (DPS) operation-related information; and receiving, from the second station, a second action frame in response to the first action frame.
