U-APSD (WMM Power Save) Support
The access point now supports Unscheduled Automatic Power Save Delivery (U-APSD), often referred
to as WMM Power Save. U-APSD provides a periodic frame exchange between a voice capable MU
and the access point during a VoIP call, while legacy power management is still utilized for typical
data frame exchanges. The access point and its associated MU activate the new U-APSD power save
approach when a VoIP traffic stream is detected. The MU then buffers frames from the voice traffic
stream and sends a VoIP frame with an implicit "poll" request to its associated access point. The
access point responds to the poll request with buffered VoIP stream frame(s). When a voice-enabled
MU wakes up at a designated VoIP frame interval, it sends a VoIP frame with an implicit "poll" request
to its associated access point. The access point responds to the poll request with buffered VoIP
stream frame(s).
TXOPs Time ms TXOP times range from 0.2 ms (background priority) to 3 ms (video
priority) in a 802.11a/n network, and from 1.2 ms to 6 ms in an
802.11b/g/n network. The TXOP bursting capability greatly
enhances the efficiency for high rate traffic such as streaming
video.
NOTE The access point ships with the U-APSD feature disabled by default. It is
automatically enabled when WMM is enabled for a WLAN. Thus, U-APSD
is only functional when WMM is enabled. If WMM is disabled, then
U-APSD is disabled as well.
