Abstract
The present technology relates to a communication apparatus and a communication method that permit realization of more reliable communication. Provided is a communication apparatus that includes a control section that performs control such that plural aggregated subframes are sent in a predetermined sequence for each frame included in each of spatially multiplexed streams when a frame is sent to another communication apparatus as plural spatially multiplexed streams. The present technology is applicable, for example, to a communication apparatus included in a wireless LAN system.
Claims16
A communication apparatus comprising:
- control circuitry adapted to perform control such that plural aggregated subframes are sent in a predetermined sequence for each frame included in each of spatially multiplexed streams when a frame is sent to another communication apparatus as plural spatially multiplexed streams,
- wherein the control circuitry:
- changes a sequence of the subframes for each of the frames, and
- arranges, in each of the frames, the subframes such that the first subframes have different sequence numbers from each other.
A communication method comprising:
- performing control such that plural aggregated subframes are sent in a predetermined sequence for each frame included in each of spatially multiplexed streams when a communication apparatus sends a frame to another communication apparatus as plural spatially multiplexed streams,
- wherein the method further comprises:
- changing a sequence of the subframes for each of the frames, and
- including, as the frame, at least one frame in which subframes are arranged in reverse order of sequence number.
A communication apparatus comprising:
- control circuitry adapted to perform control such that original data is constructed for each frame included in each of spatially multiplexed streams by collecting error-free subframes from plural subframes aggregated in a predetermined sequence when a frame sent from another communication apparatus is received as plural spatially multiplexed streams,
- wherein the sequence of the subframes is changed for each of the frames, and
- wherein the subframes are arranged in each of the frames such that the first subframes have different sequence numbers from each other.
A communication method comprising:
- performing control such that original data is constructed for each frame included in each of spatially multiplexed streams by collecting error-free subframes from plural subframes aggregated in a predetermined sequence when a frame sent from another communication apparatus is received by a communication apparatus as plural spatially multiplexed streams,
- wherein the sequence of the subframes is changed for each of the frames, and
- wherein, as the frame, at least one frame is included in which the subframes are arranged in reverse order of sequence number.
