Abstract

There is provided a method and apparatus associated with a sensing measurement report frame format. A method includes receiving, by an access point (AP) or a station (STA), a request for at least one sensing measurement report. The method also includes transmitting, by the AP or the STA, a sensing measurement report frame that includes a category field, a public action field, and at least one measurement set-up identifier field and at least one sensing measurement report element. The sensing management report frame can include a category field, a public action field, a dialog token field, a measurement set-up identifier field, and a sensing measurement report element.
