Abstract: The present disclosure provides communication apparatuses and methods for multi-link peer-to-peer communication, the communication apparatus being a communication apparatus of a plurality of communication apparatuses affiliated with a first multi-link device (MLD), each of the plurality of communication apparatuses operating in a corresponding link of the first MLD, the communication apparatus comprising: circuitry, which in operation, generates a request frame, the request frame being one of a discovery request frame to discover a peer-to-peer communication capability of another communication apparatus, or a setup request frame to request setup of one or more direct links, the request frame carrying a multi-link (ML) indication identifying that the communication apparatus is affiliated with the first MLD; and a transmitter, which in operation, transmits the request frame in a link.

Abstract: The present disclosure provides a communication apparatus and method for wireless local area network sensing. The communication apparatus comprises: a transmitter, which, in operation, transmits a request frame to one or more peer communication apparatuses, the request frame carrying transmission parameters to be used by the each of one or more peer communication apparatuses to transmit a physical layer protocol data unit (PPDU) used for channel measurements; a sensing module configured to perform the channel measurements based on the respective PPDU(s) received from the one or more peer communication apparatuses; and an interface configured to obtain sensing parameters from higher layer applications and pass a result of the channel measurements to the higher layer applications.
