Abstract

A station (STA) configured for Quality-of-Service (QoS) management performs a Simple Reflective QoS (SRQ) protocol with an access point (AP) (i.e., another QoS STA) for QoS management of a QoS flow. As part of the SRQ protocol to exchange QoS profiles, the STA may encode a request frame to include a first SRQ capabilities information element (IE) for transmission to the AP. The inclusion of the first SRQ capabilities IE indicating that the STA supports the SRQ protocol. The STA may also decode a response frame received from the AP. The response frame includes a second SRQ capabilities IE indicating that the AP supports the SRQ protocol. The STA may also determine a QoS profile for the QoS flow based on SRQ capabilities of the STA and the AP. The STA may also create a SRQ tuple based the QoS profile for initiating the QoS flow.
