Abstract
An electronic device that selectively provides a trigger frame is described. During operation, the electronic device may receive a frame from a recipient electronic device, where the frame includes information that specifies a maximum uplink multi-user transmit duration of the recipient electronic device. Moreover, the electronic device may selectively provide the trigger frame to the recipient electronic device that specifies an uplink OFDMA frame or an uplink MIMO frame associated with the recipient electronic device. The trigger frame may be selectively provided when a transmit time corresponding to the uplink OFDMA frame or the uplink MIMO frame is less than or equal to the maximum uplink multi-user transmit duration.
