METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR ACCESSING INITIAL CHANNEL IN WIRELESS LAN

摘要

A method for accessing an initial channel by a STA can comprise the steps of: the STA receiving, via a first band from a multiband AP, a scanning frame comprising a neighboring AP information element, wherein the neighboring AP information element comprises information for a second band which is an operating band for the neighboring AP; the STA determining whether accessing the neighboring AP is possible on the basis of information comprised in the neighboring AP information element regarding an access network type of the neighboring AP operating in the second band; if access to the neighboring AP is possible, the STA transmitting an association request frame to the neighboring AP via the second band, wherein the access network type can comprise information regarding an access permission type of a neighboring AP.

1. A method for an initial channel access by a station (STA), the method comprising:
receiving, by the STA, a scanning frame including a neighboring AP information element via a first band from a multiband access point (AP), the neighboring AP information element including information on a second band which is an operating band for the neighboring AP; determining, by the STA, whether accessing the neighboring AP is possible based on information on an access network type of the neighboring AP operating in the second band included in the neighboring AP information element; and transmitting, by the STA, an association request frame to the neighboring AP via the second band when the STA is capable of accessing to the neighboring AP, wherein the access network type includes information on an access permission type of the neighboring AP.
