Abstract
Methods, systems, and apparatus are presented for providing enhanced scheduling requests, e.g., in an IEEE 802.11 network. A client station (STA) may determine one or more minimum quality of service (QoS) metrics for supporting an application being implemented by the STA, and may determine minimum scheduling parameters to be implemented by an access point (AP) to achieve the minimum QoS. The STA may transmit to the AP a specific scheduling request indicating the minimum scheduling parameters. In response, the AP may schedule communication resources for the STA in accordance with the minimum scheduling resources.
