Abstract: A device may generate a frame relating to a target wake time (TWT) schedule. In response to determining that the device cannot accept a request for a new membership of the TWT schedule, the device may set a subfield of the frame to a first value, indicating, to a receiver device receiving the frame, to avoid sending a request for a new membership of the TWT schedule.

In response to determining that there exists another TWT schedule set up for an overlapping basic service set (OBSS), the device may set the subfield of the frame to a fourth value. The device may wirelessly transmit the generated frame to the receiver device.

The M-TF may be encoded to include a time-sensitive operation IE indicating how each STA is to access the channel within the coordinated TXOP.
