Abstract

A method may include determining at a first AP that a first original packet sent from a second AP to a STA failed to decode at the STA. The method may include sending from the first AP a first retransmission packet that includes error correction information for the first original packet the STA. The method may include the first AP coordinating with a third AP that is sending an ongoing communication to another STA to avoid interference between the first retransmission packet and the ongoing communication. The method may include sending a second original packet from the first AP to the STA or the other STA.
