Zusammenfassung:	A method implemented by a station (STA) in a Wireless Local Area Network (WLAN) to disregard a Network Allocation Vector (NAV) maintained by the STA. The method includes receiving a first frame from an Access Point (AP), determining whether the NAV maintained by the STA was previously set using a duration indicated in a second frame that (1) was received by the STA prior to receiving the first frame and (2) originated from the AP, and transmitting a third frame to the AP as an immediate response to the first frame without considering the NAV maintained by the STA when a determination is made that the NAV maintained by the STA was previously set using the duration indicated in the second frame that originated from the AP.
