  • Publication number: 20260231216
    Abstract: Proposed are a method and apparatus for performing an OBSS sounding procedure in a wireless LAN system. Specifically, a receiving STA receives a first trigger frame from a first transmitting STA. The receiving STA receives an NDPA frame from a second transmitting STA. The receiving STA receives an NDP frame from the second transmitting STA. On the basis of the NDPA frame and NDP frame, the receiving STA transmits a feedback frame to the first or second transmitting STA. The first trigger frame contains information about an OAID. The OAID is information for the second transmitting STA to identify the receiving STA. The NDPA frame, NDP frame, and feedback frame are transmitted and received on the basis of the OAID.
