Abstract: Disclosed are a method and apparatus for transmitting and receiving data in a communication system supporting multiple links. A method for operation of a first device comprises the steps of: transmitting, in a first link from among multiple links, a first RTS frame to a second device; receiving, from the second device in the first link, a first CTS frame that is a response to the first RTS frame; when the first CTS frame is received, transmitting, in the first link, a first data frame to the second device; and transmitting, in a second link during transmission of the first data frame, a second RTS frame to the second device.

Abstract: Disclosed are a method and device for transmitting and receiving data in a communication system supporting multiple links. A method of operating a first device comprises: performing an operation for receiving a first frame from a second device in a first link among multiple links; performing a channel access operation to transmit a second frame to the second device in a second link among the multiple links during a period corresponding to the reception period of the first frame; and transmitting the second frame to the second device in the second link “after the channel access operation is completed and the reception period ends”.

Abstract: A method and device are disclosed for channel connection in a wireless communication system supporting multiple links. An operation method for the device comprises the steps of: performing a first back-off operation in a first link among multiple links; stopping the first back-off operation when the first link is determined to be in a busy state due to the first back-off operation; and using a new back-off counter value to perform a second back-off operation in a second link among the multiple links when the second link is in an idle state in a preset period prior to the point in time at which the first back-off operation is stopped.

Abstract: A method and an apparatus for STR in a wireless LAN that supports multi-links are disclosed. An operating method of a first communication node comprises the steps of: transmitting a first frame to a second communication node through a first link from among multi-links; receiving, from the second communication node, a response frame for the first frame through the first link; checking a channel occupancy time in a second link from among the multi-links on the basis of first information included in the response frame; and performing a sensing operation in a preset section after the end of the channel occupancy time in the second link.

Abstract: Disclosed are a method and apparatus for cooperative communication using a multi-link in a communication system. An operating method of a first device comprises the steps of: generating a first request frame including an information element indicating a link switch time point; transmitting, to a second device, the first request frame via a first link; and receiving, from the second device via the first link, a first response frame indicating that the information element included in the first request frame has been identified.

Abstract: Disclosed is a method for transmitting/receiving information using WUR. A communication node comprises: a processor; a memory containing one or more instructions executed by the processor; a first transceiver operating on the basis of the one or more instructions; and a second transceiver operating on the basis of the one or more instructions.

Abstract: An operating method of a first communication node in a wireless communication network may include steps of: performing a monitoring operation on a first channel and a second channel; when states of the first channel and the second channel are idle states during a first section as a result of the monitoring operation, performing a random back-off operation in the first channel and the second channel; and when the state of the first channel and the state of the second channel are the idle states as a result of the random back-off operation, transmitting a first frame from the first channel and the second channel.

Abstract: The present invention relates to an operating method of a first communication node in a communication system, comprising the steps of: negotiating with a second communication node with respect to a parameter for multi-link transmission; determining, on the basis of the parameter, a plurality of links for performing the multi-link transmission, and the transmission method by which the multi-link transmission is performed; and transmitting, in the plurality of links, a data frame to the second communication node by means of the transmission method. Therefore, the communication node can efficiently set and change links.

Abstract: A multiplex transmission method and apparatus in a multi-link wireless LAN are disclosed. An operating method of a first device comprises the steps of: setting a first link linked with a second device and a first service; setting a second link linked with the second device and a second service; and performing communication with the second device by using the first link and/or the second link. Therefore, the performance of a communication system can be improved.

Abstract: A method for operating a first communication node in a wireless communication network may comprise: a step for measuring the channel busy ratio of a first channel; a step for allowing fallback transmission of a first frame in the first channel on the basis of information about the channel busy ratio of the first channel; a step for performing a channel sensing operation in the first channel and a second channel; and a step for performing fallback transmission of the first frame in the first channel when, as a result of the channel sensing operation, the state of the first channel is an idle state and the state of the second channel is a busy state.
