Abstract:
Methods, apparatuses, computer readable media for coordinated transmission among virtual access points (VAPs). An apparatus of a wireless device comprising processing circuitry is disclosed. The processing circuitry is configured to determine to share a multi-station uplink (UL) and/or downlink (DL) transmission opportunity (TXOP) with two stations that are associated with two virtual access points (VAPs), where each of the two stations is associated with one of the two VAPs. The processing circuitry further configured to determine UL resource allocations for the two stations for a trigger frame based on information received from the two VAPs, and to encode the trigger frame for the multi-station UL TXOP, the trigger frame comprising a common VAP identification (ID) of the two VAPs, UL resource allocations for the two stations, and multi-basic service set (M-BSS) identifications (IDs) for each of the two stations.
