Abstract

An access point (AP) may prioritize the allocation of uplink resources between multiple basic service sets (BSSs). In some aspects, the AP may select one of a plurality of BSSs, may allocate one or more random resource units (RUs) to only the selected BSS, and may transmit a frame indicating the allocation of the one or more random RUs to the selected BSS. Wireless devices belonging to the selected BSS may contend for access to the random RUs allocated by the frame, and then transmit uplink data using the random RUs.
