Abstract

A method of providing multi-link operation channel access in a multi-link network includes initiating a first backoff countdown and a second backoff countdown associated with a first link and a second link of the multi-link network, respectively, and in response to the first backoff countdown reaching zero, determining whether the second backoff countdown is less than or equal to an aggregation threshold, and in response to determining that the second backoff countdown is less than or equal to the aggregation threshold, transmitting a first frame and a second frame on the first and second links.
