Abstract
For example, an apparatus may be configured to cause an Access Point (AP) Multi-Link Device (MLD) to, during an ongoing communication between a first AP of the AP MLD and a first non-AP wireless communication station (STA) over a first wireless communication channel, communicate a suspend request by a second AP of the AP MLD over a second wireless communication channel, the suspend request configured to request suspension of the ongoing communication between the first AP of the AP MLD and the first non-AP STA; to suspend the ongoing communication between the first AP of the MLD and the first non-AP STA over the first wireless communication channel for a suspension period; and to communicate a frame by the first AP over the first wireless communication channel during the suspension period, the frame communicated between the first AP and a second non-AP STA.
