Abstract
Systems and methods are configured to receive a first request to schedule a Time To Wake (TWT) service period (SP) for a first station. The first request can be based on individual TWT protocol. That the TWT SP satisfies a threshold level of similarity with an existing TWT SP maintained for a group of at least one station scheduled to communicate over the existing TWT SP can be determined. The group can include a second station. The first station can be assigned to the group. A first packet can be transmitted to the first station and a second packet can be transmitted to the second station over the existing TWT SP.
