Method and apparatus for transmitting relay frame in wireless communication system

摘要

A method and apparatus for transmitting a relay frame in a relay end are provided. The method includes: receiving a relay request frame requesting data transmission to a receive end from a transmit end; transmitting a relay response frame including information on data to be relayed to each of the transmit end and the receive end; receiving the data from the transmit end; and generating a relay frame including the data to transmit the relay frame to the receive end. According to the present invention, the data is transmitted to the receive end positioned outside a transmission coverage of the transmit end, such that a wireless LAN service coverage may be expanded, and an adjacent terminal connected to the receive end is used as the relay end, such that the transmit end that may not be connected directly to the receive end may communicate with the receive end.

主权项

1. A method for transmitting a relay frame in a relay end of a wireless communication system, the method comprising:
receiving, by the relay end, a first relay request frame requesting data transmission to a receive end from a transmit end; transmitting, by the relay end, a relay response frame including information on data to be relayed to each of the transmit end and the receive end; receiving, by the relay end, Request To Send (RTS) information from the transmit end; transmitting, by the relay end, the RTS information to the receive end; receiving, by the relay end, the data from the transmit end; and generating, by the relay end, a relay frame including the data and transmitting the relay frame to the receive end.
