- the WUR radio frequency circuit 224 wakes up the main radio frequency circuit 222. For example, if the identity of the terminal device to be woken up is the identity of a single terminal device, and the identity of the single terminal device is the identity of the terminal device 220, the WUR radio frequency circuit 224 wakes up the primary radio frequency circuit 222. If the identifier of the terminal device to be awake is a group identifier, and the terminal device 220 is in the group identified by the group identifier, the WUR radio frequency circuit 224 wakes up the main radio frequency circuit 222. If the identifier of the terminal device to be woken up is a broadcast identifier, the WUR radio frequency circuit 224 wakes up the main radio frequency circuit 222.
- the WUR RF circuit 224 can directly wake up the primary RF circuit 222.
- the WUR radio frequency circuit 224 can also notify the processor that the main RF circuit 222 is woken up by the processor.
- the primary radio frequency circuit operates on a working channel available to the primary radio frequency circuit after being woken up.
- an indication of the working channel of the WLAN device 210 may be included in the wake-up frame. According to the indication, the primary RF circuit 222 operates on the active channel after being woken up.
- the primary radio frequency circuit 222 transmits a response to the wake-up frame on the working channel.
- the WLAN device 210 sends the wake-up frame of the terminal device to be awake as a separate identification of the terminal device 220 to wake up the terminal device 220 individually, the WLAN device 210 determines whether the terminal device 220 has been woken up. Since the WUR radio frequency circuit 224 is unable to transmit a wireless signal, the WUR radio frequency circuit 224 cannot reply an acknowledgment (ACK) frame on the designated channel. Thus, the primary radio frequency circuit 222 of the terminal device 220 transmits a response to the wake-up frame on the working channel after being woken up.
- ACK acknowledgment
- the response may be an ACK frame, which may be a probe request (English: probe request) frame, or a data frame (for example, an empty data frame), or any other type of frame, as long as the WLAN device 210 is informed that the terminal device 220 has been Wake up. If the WLAN device 210 receives a response to the wake-up frame on the working channel, the WLAN device 210 knows that the terminal device 220 has been successfully woken up. If the WLAN device 210 does not receive a response to the wake-up frame on the working channel, the WLAN device 210 fails to wake up the terminal device 220.
- ACK frame which may be a probe request (English: probe request) frame, or a data frame (for example, an empty data frame), or any other type of frame, as long as the WLAN device 210 is informed that the terminal device 220 has been Wake up. If the WLAN device 210 receives a response to the wake-up frame on the working channel, the WLAN device 210 knows that the terminal device 220 has been successfully woken up. If the WLAN device
- the WLAN device 210 if the WLAN device 210 does not receive a response to the wake-up frame on the working channel, the WLAN device 210 notifies other WLAN devices. Other WLAN devices and WLAN device 210 transmit new wake-up frames on the designated channel.
- the new wake-up frame includes the identity of the terminal device 220.
- the new wake-up frame sent by each WLAN device includes an indication of the working channel of the corresponding WLAN device.
- the WLAN device 210 transmits a new wake-up frame on the designated channel.
- This new wake-up frame can be the same as the last sent wake-up frame.
- This new wake-up frame can also be different from the last sent wake-up frame. For example, during the WLAN device 210 waiting for a response to the last transmitted wake-up frame, the working channel of the WLAN device 210 changes, and the indication of the working channel in the new wake-up frame also changes accordingly.
- the WLAN device 210 if the WLAN device 210 fails to wake up the terminal device 220 for the first time, the WLAN device 210 first attempts to wake up the terminal device 220 by itself. If one or more attempts fail again, the WLAN device 210 notifies other WLAN devices to send the wake-up frame.
- step 234 may be omitted.
- the WLAN device 210 transmits a WLAN frame on the working channel.
- the WLAN device 210 wakes up the terminal device 220 individually, the WLAN device 210 transmits a WLAN frame to the terminal device 220 on the working channel after determining that the terminal device 220 has been woken up. If the WLAN device 210 transmits a wake-up frame identified as a group identity or a broadcast identity to wake up multiple terminal devices, the WLAN device 210 does not need to confirm whether each WLAN device 210 has been woken up. The WLAN device 210 transmits a WLAN frame, such as a group address frame, on the working channel after the preparation period after transmitting the wake-up frame.
- a WLAN frame such as a group address frame

The WUR radio frequency circuit of the terminal device 430 receives the WUR beacon frame and sets the backup WUR channel to a new designated channel.
- the terminal device 430 in the sleep state leaves the coverage of the WLAN device 410, and cannot receive the WLAN device 410 to transmit the WUR beacon frame on the working channel.
- the terminal device 430 in the sleep state is capable of receiving the WUR beacon frame while being within the coverage of the WLAN device 410. If the terminal device 430 in the sleep state leaves the coverage of the WLAN device 410, the WUR beacon frame on the channel 44 cannot be received.
