Abstract

A device may one or more processors. The one or more processors may be configured to determine a first set of quality of service (QoS) parameters associated with a first traffic identifier (TID) relating to a restricted target wake time (R-TWT) schedule in a wireless local area network (WLAN). The one or more processors may be configured to wirelessly transmit, via a transceiver, a first frame including the first set of QoS parameters.

Claims (42)

1 . A device comprising:

one or more processors configured to:

determine, without performing a stream classification service (SCS) negotiation, a first set of quality of service (QOS) parameters associated with a first traffic identifier (TID) relating to a restricted target wake time (R-TWT) schedule in a wireless local area network (WLAN);

wirelessly transmit, via a transceiver, a first frame including the first set of QoS parameters;

determine, after transmitting the first frame, without performing an SCS negotiation, a third set of QoS parameters associated with the first TID relating to the R-TWT schedule; and

wirelessly transmit, via the transceiver, a second frame including the third set of QoS parameters.

2 . The device of claim 1 , wherein the one or more processors are configured to transmit or receive, via the transceiver, one or more frames associated with the first TID using the first set of QOS parameters during a first service period (SP) of the R-TWT schedule.

3 . The device of claim 2 , wherein the one or more processors are configured to transmit or receive, via the transceiver, one or more frames associated with the first TID using the first set of QOS parameters during a second SP of the R-TWT schedule that is different from the first SP.

4 . The device of claim 1 , wherein:

the first frame is an R-TWT setup frame including one or more information elements IEs), and

the one or more IEs of the R-TWT setup frame include the first set of QOS parameters and the first TID.

5 . The device of claim 4 , wherein the one or more information elements include one or more traffic specification (TSPEC) elements.

6 . The device of claim 4 , wherein:

the one or more IEs of the R-TWT setup frame further include a second TID and a second set of QoS parameters associated with the second TID, and

the one or more processors are configured to transmit or receive one or more frames associated with the second TID using the second set of QOS parameters during one or more service periods (SPs) of the R-TWT schedule.

7 . The device of claim 6 , wherein the first set of QOS parameters are same as the second set of QOS parameters.

8 . The device of claim 1 , wherein after transmitting the second frame, the one or more processors are configured to transmit or receive, via the transceiver, one or more frames associated with the first TID using the third set of QoS parameters during one or more SPs of the R-TWT schedule.

9 . The device of claim 1 , wherein the one or more processors configured to:

determine a change in traffic pattern associated with the first TID; and

responsive to determining the traffic pattern change, determine the third set of QoS parameters associated with the first TID relating to the R-TWT schedule.

10 . A method comprising:

determining, by a device without performing a stream classification service (SCS) negotiation, a first set of quality of service (QOS) parameters associated with a first traffic identifier (TID) relating to a restricted target wake time (R-TWT) schedule in a wireless local area network (WLAN);

wirelessly transmitting, via a transceiver, a first frame including the first set of QoS parameters;

determining, after transmitting the first frame, without performing an SCS negotiation, a third set of QoS parameters associated with the first TID relating to the R-TWT schedule; and

wirelessly transmitting, via the transceiver, a second frame including the third set of QoS parameters.

11 . The method of claim 10 , further comprising:

transmitting or receiving, via the transceiver, one or more frames associated with the first TID using the first set of QoS parameters during a first service period (SP) of the R-TWT schedule.

12 . The method of claim 11 , further comprising:

transmitting or receiving, via the transceiver, one or more frames associated with the first TID using the first set of QOS parameters during a second SP of the R-TWT schedule that is different from the first SP.

13 . The method of claim 10 , wherein:

the first frame is an R-TWT setup frame including one or more information elements (IEs), and

the one or more IEs of the R-TWT setup frame include the first set of QOS parameters and the first TID.

14 . The method of claim 13 , wherein the one or more information elements include one or more traffic specification (TSPEC) elements.

15 . The method of claim 13 , wherein:

the one or more IEs of the R-TWT setup frame further include a second TID and a second set of QOS parameters associated with the second TID, and

the method further comprises transmitting or receiving one or more frames associated with the second TID using the second set of QoS parameters during one or more service periods SPs) of the R-TWT schedule.

16 . The method of claim 15 , wherein the first set of QOS parameters are same as the second set of QoS parameters.

17 . The method of claim 10 , further comprising:

after transmitting the second frame, transmitting or receiving, via the transceiver, one or more frames associated with the first TID using the third set of QoS parameters during one or more SPs of the R-TWT schedule.

18 . The method of claim 10 , further comprising:

determining a change in traffic pattern associated with the first TID; and

responsive to determining the traffic pattern change, determining the third set of QoS parameters associated with the first TID relating to the R-TWT schedule.
