1. An apparatus for an extremely high throughput (EHT) access point (AP), the apparatus comprising: processing circuitry; and memory, the processing circuitry configured to:
announce, with one or more management frames, one or more restricted service periods (SPs) for latency sensitive traffic;
wherein each of the one or more restricted SPs comprise a restricted period of time during which member stations (STAs) transmit and/or receive quality-of-service (QoS) data frames of a traffic flow that comprise the latency sensitivity traffic;
include an information element (IE) in the management frames that defines characteristics and QoS expectations that belong to the traffic flow of the latency sensitivity traffic; and
prioritize delivery of the QoS data frames of the traffic flow during the restricted SPs.
