Abstract
Embodiments of the present invention provide systems, apparatus and methods that provide transmission information of different APs to a wireless device during link discovery. The transmission information is used to determine AP coverage/link reachability information for performing channel association, channel switching, multi-AP coordination, or groupcast transmission and reception, for example. The transmission information can correspond to APs affiliated with the same AP MLD or APs affiliated with different AP MLDs. In this way, wireless devices can identify a link with sufficient coverage according to reachability information determined for different APs without having to scan each BSS directly, which advantageously reduces power consumption and improves wireless network performance.
