  • Publication number: 20200119863
    Abstract: According to one embodiment, an electronic apparatus includes a transmitter circuitry, a receiver circuitry, and a processing circuitry. The transmitter circuitry transmits a first data frame including first data to a destination apparatus. The receiver circuitry receives first acknowledgment information indicative of a reception state of the first data included in the first data frame. The receiver circuitry receives second acknowledgment information indicative of a reception state of the first data included in a second data frame. The second data frame is transmitted from another electronic apparatus to the destination apparatus. The processing circuitry determines whether the first data frame is retransmitted, based on at least one of the first and second acknowledgment information.

  • Publication number: 20200077441
    Abstract: According to one embodiment, an electronic apparatus includes a receiver and a transmitter. The receiver is configured to receive, from a first wireless apparatus, a first physical frame including a destination address receivable by a second wireless apparatus different from the electronic apparatus. The transmitter is configured to transmit, to the first wireless apparatus, a first response frame including first information regarding the first physical frame, if the first physical frame is successfully received. A transmission period of the first response frame at least partially overlaps with a transmission period of a second response frame including second information regarding the first physical frame received by the second wireless apparatus.
