  • Patent number: 11956812
    Abstract: A method for processing a network allocation vector (NAV) includes: terminating the receiving of a first radio frame when it is determined that a target receiving station of the first radio frame being received is not a first station; and updating an NAV of the first station or maintaining the NAV of the first station unchanged according to a remaining duration of the first radio frame and a first transmission opportunity duration carried in the first radio frame, where the remaining duration of the first radio frame is the transmission time used for transmitting the remaining part of the first radio frame after the receiving of the first radio frame is terminated. The technical solution solves the problem in the related art of collisions with hidden stations caused by an inaccurate NAV update in the existing art, thereby ensuring the accuracy of an NAV update and the fairness of transmission and channel contention, and reducing collisions among hidden stations.
