Abstract
A shared wireless fidelity (WiFi) communication device receives a first frame transmitted from a sharing access point (AP), and transmits a second frame to a non-AP station (STA). The first frame at least contains information of a shared period that is allowed to be used by the shared WiFi communication device, and the shared period is a subset of a time period of transmission opportunity (TXOP) obtained by the sharing AP. The second frame at least contains the information of the shared period.
