An access point (AP) that is part of a basic service set (BSS) may provide multi-channel (MC) access to one or more stations C:N (STAs) in the BSS. The AP may monitor for beacon frames transmitted by other access point/personal basic service set (PBSS) control 0 7 r point (AP/PCP) associated with overlapping basic service sets (OBSSs). The monitored beacon frames may include service period (SP) ---. scheduling information for the OBSS. The AP may generate an allocations at least one SPs and/or contention based access periods , 1 c) (CBAPs) channels to be used in a beacon interval in consideration of the SP scheduling information for the OBSS. The AP may transmit © a beacon frame STA(s) indicating the SP/CBAP allocations. Other mechanisms may include simultaneous transmission of multiple N single carrier (SC) waveforms with non-overlapping waveforms to multiple STAs.
