Abstract
A particular method includes receiving a first frame from a station at an access point indicating that the station is to enter a power save mode. The method also includes transmitting one or more data frames from the access point to the station. The one or more data frames were buffered for transmission prior to receipt of the first frame. The method further includes transmitting an end of data frame to the station. Another particular method includes transmitting a first frame from the station to the access point indicating that the station is to enter the power save mode. The method also includes refraining from entering the power save mode until an end of data frame is received from the access point.
