  • Publication number: 20240049304
    Abstract: Disclosed is a method by which a station (STA) transmits a frame in a wireless communication system. The STA according to the present invention receives, from an access point (AP), a trigger frame indicating uplink transmission, and transmits a physical layer protocol data unit (PPDU) to the AP and/or another STA within a shared transmission opportunity (TXOP), on the basis of the trigger frame. Here, the trigger frame is used to share, with the STA, a part or all of the TXOP obtained by the AP. Also, the PPDU includes duration information indicating the TXOP for transmission of the PPDU, and the duration information is configured on the basis of the shared TXOP.
