Abstract

An access point (AP) includes a transmitter (TX) circuit, a receiver (RX) circuit, and a control circuit. The control circuit negotiates with at least one another AP via the TX circuit and the RX circuit, for setting up a coordinated service period (SP). In addition, a method for setting up the coordinated SP in a multiple AP environment includes: sending a request frame from a first AP to at least one second AP, wherein the request frame includes a plurality of SP parameters; receiving a response frame generated from the at least one second AP in response to the request frame; and in response to the response frame, setting up the coordinated SP by sending a setup frame to the at least one another AP, wherein the setup frame is set by updating at least a portion of the plurality of SP parameters.
