Claim 9:
10. A non-transitory computer-readable medium storing computer-executable instructions which when executed by one or more processors result in performing operations comprising:
identifying, by a first non-access point (AP) device of a first MLD, a beacon received from a first AP device of a second MLD using a first communication link between the first non-AP device of the first MLD and the first AP device of the second MLD;
identifying, by the first MLD, a first traffic indication map (TIM) in the beacon, the first TIM comprising a first bitmap comprising a first indication that traffic is to be sent by the first AP device of the second MLD to the first non-AP device of the first MLD during a beacon interval occurring after the beacon using the first communication link;
identifying, by the first MLD, a second TIM in the beacon, the second TIM comprising a second bitmap comprising a second indication that no traffic is to be sent by a second AP device of the second MLD to a second non-AP device of the first MLD during the beacon interval using a second communication link between the second AP device of the second MLD and the second non-AP device of the first MLD;
causing, by the first MLD, the second non-AP device of the first MLD to enter a doze state during the beacon interval; and
identifying, by the first MLD, a data frame received during the beacon interval from the first AP device of the second MLD using the first communication link.
