Abstract

Embodiments of the present invention provide methods and devices for performing admission control in a wireless network. Admission control can be used to set usage limits for wireless devices in the network. When admission control is enabled, a wireless station does not transmit frames if the current channel usage time is greater than a predefined time limit. The admission control parameters can be specific to an access category (AC), such as best effort (BE), voice (VO), video (VI), and background (BK). According to some implementations, the admission control is performed on a link-level. According to other implementations, the admission control is performed at a multi-link device (MLD) level.
