Abstract
A time division-based wireless LAN communication method by use of an AP in an infrastructure mode, including, on the AP'"'"'s side, receiving a time slot allocation request frame from a station, allocating time slots during which the station can transmit data based on the time slot allocation request frame, and broadcasting reservation information on allocated time slots. A time division-based wireless LAN communication system includes an AP receiving a time slot allocation request frame transmitted by a station, allocating time slots on this basis, with which the station can transmit data, and broadcasting reservation information on allocated time slots, and one or more stations transmitting the time slot allocation request frame to the AP when there is data to be transmitted, receiving reservation information on time slots allocated by the AP based on the received time slot allocation request frame, and transmitting the data according to reservation of the beacon.
