Abstract
Channel access coordination for TXOP sharing An access point of a wireless communication system operates on a primary bandwidth part(Ch, Ch) of a medium. This operation on the primary bandwidth part (Ch, Ch) is based on carrier sensing to gain access to the primary bandwidth part of the medium. Further, the access point scans a secondary bandwidth part (Ch, Ch) of the medium to detect control messages transmitted on the secondary bandwidth part (Ch, Ch), without performing carrier sensing to gain access to the secondary bandwidth part (Ch, Ch) of the medium. Further, the APdetects a control message indicating that another AP reserved a transmission opportunity, TXOP, on the secondary bandwidth part (Ch, Ch) of the medium. In response to the control message, the AP cooperates with the other AP by sharing the TXOP for performing one or more transmissions of data.
