Wireless communication method for simultaneous data transmission and reception and wireless communication apparatus using same
The present invention relates to a wireless communication method for simultaneous transmit and receive of data and a wireless communication terminal using the same, and more particularly, to a wireless communication method and an apparatus thereof which can efficiently perform simultaneous data transmission and reception even in an overlapped BSS environment. To this end, provided are a wireless communication method of a terminal, including: performing a backoff procedure for transmitting data; transmitting a first RTS frame when a backoff counter of the backoff procedure is expired; setting a transmission timer for waiting for transmitting the data when a second RTS frame is received in response to the transmitted first RTS frame; and waiting for transmitting the data based on the set transmission timer and a wireless communication terminal using the same.
1. A wireless communication terminal comprising:
a transceiver; and
a processor,
wherein the processor is configured to:
receive, through the transceiver, a trigger frame indicating simultaneous transmission(s) of one or more terminals in a basic service set (BSS),
perform an uplink transmission in response to the trigger frame, and
receive, through the transceiver, acknowledgement frame corresponding to the uplink transmission,
wherein a starting time of the uplink transmission is determined according to the reception of the trigger frame,
wherein the acknowledgement frame is received at a time determined based on duration information indicated by a duration field included in the trigger frame, and
wherein the duration information is information related to the time for simultaneously performing uplink transmission of one or more terminals and receiving the acknowledgement frame at the same time.
2. The wireless communication terminal of claim 1 , wherein a length field of the uplink transmission indicating a duration of the uplink transmission is determined based on the duration information indicated by the trigger frame.
3. The wireless communication terminal of claim 1 , wherein when a duration of data in the uplink transmission is smaller than a value corresponding to the duration information indicated by the trigger frame, the processor receives the acknowledgement frame at the time determined based on the duration information indicated by the trigger frame.
4. The wireless communication terminal of claim 3 , wherein the processor receives the acknowledgement frame by waiting until the time determined based on the duration information indicated by the trigger frame after the duration of data elapses.
5. The wireless communication terminal of claim 1 , wherein the uplink transmission is performed a predetermined time after receiving the trigger frame.
6. The wireless communication terminal of claim 1 , wherein the one or more terminals to perform uplink transmission in response to the trigger frame are indicated by a predetermined bit of the trigger frame.
7. A wireless communication method of a terminal, the method comprising:
receiving a trigger frame indicating simultaneous transmission(s) of one or more terminals in a basic service set (BSS);
performing an uplink transmission in response to the trigger frame; and
receiving acknowledgement frame corresponding to the uplink transmission,
wherein a starting time of the uplink transmission is determined according to the reception of the trigger frame,
wherein the acknowledgement frame is received at a time determined based on duration information indicated by a duration field included in the trigger frame, and
wherein the duration information is information related to the time for simultaneously performing uplink transmission of one or more terminals and receiving the acknowledgement frame at the same time.
8. The wireless communication method of claim 7 , wherein a length field of the uplink transmission indicating a duration of the uplink transmission is determined based on the duration information indicated by the trigger frame.
9. The wireless communication method of claim 7 , wherein when a duration of data in the uplink transmission is smaller than a value corresponding to the duration information indicated by the trigger frame, the receiving step receives the acknowledgement frame at the time determined based on the duration information indicated by the trigger frame.
10. The wireless communication method of claim 9 , wherein the receiving step receives the acknowledgement frame by waiting until the time determined based on the duration information indicated by the trigger frame after the duration of data elapses.
11. The wireless communication method of claim 7 , wherein the uplink transmission is performed a predetermined time after receiving the trigger frame.
12. The wireless communication method of claim 7 , wherein the one or more terminals to perform uplink transmission in response to the trigger frame are indicated by a predetermined bit of the trigger frame.
