ABSTRACT:
A buffering apparatus and method for packet aggregation are provided. A buffer buffers packet data to be transmitted on a frame basis. An aggregator represents the positions of the buffered packet data in an Access Category (AC) bitmap and a Traffic Identifier (TID) bitmap according to an AC and a TID of the buffered packet data, and provides a bitmap indicating the positions of packet data to be aggregated according to an aggregation condition to an aggregation controller. The aggregation controller aggregates the packet data based on the bitmap received from the aggregator, constructs an aggregation Physical Service Data Unit (PSDU) with the aggregated packet data, and transmits the aggregation PSDU to a destination.
