Method and apparatus for transmitting and receiving frame including partial association identifier in wireless LAN system

摘要

A method and apparatus for transmitting and receiving a frame including a partial association ID (PAID) in a wireless LAN (WLAN) system are disclosed. A method for transmitting a frame from a station (STA) to an access point (AP) in a wireless communication system includes: calculating a partial association ID (Partial AID) on the basis of a basic service set ID (BSSID) of the AP; and transmitting the frame including a partial AID field set to a specific value corresponding to the calculation result of the partial AID to the AP. The partial AID is calculated by applying a modulo operation to a specific value obtained by converting values ranging from a 40th bit position to a 48th bit position from among 48 bit positions of the BSSID of the AP into a decimal number.

1. A method for transmitting a frame from a station (STA) to an access point (AP) of a wireless communication system, the method comprising:
setting, by the STA, a partial association ID (AID) field of the frame to a partial AID value; and transmitting, by the STA, the frame including the partial AID field set to the partial AID value, wherein when the frame is addressed to the AP, the partial AID value corresponds to (BSSID[39:47])mod(29−1))+1, where ‘A[b:c]’ denotes bits from Bit b to Bit c of a binary number A when an initial bit of the binary number A is denoted by Bit 0, and ‘mod’ denotes a modulo operation.
