Abstract
A station (STA) multi-link device (MLD) receives from an access point (AP) MLD, over a plurality of links, a plurality of trigger frames each indicating at least one random access resource unit (RA-RU). The STA MLD reduces a backoff counter in response to receiving each of the plurality of trigger frames, where the backoff counter is reduced in response to receiving a trigger frame based on a number of RA-RUs indicated in the trigger frame. Based on the backoff counter reaching zero, the STA MLD transmits to the AP MLD, on a link of the plurality links, a physical layer protocol data unit (PPDU) via one of the RA-RUs indicated in the plurality of trigger frames.
