Abstract
Methods for uplink (UL) multi-user (MU) transmission in a wireless local area network (WLAN) and an access point (AP) are provided. The method comprises: setting, by an AP, a Common Info field or a plurality of User Info fields of a trigger frame to indicate whether a resource unit (RU) adaptation is enabled for a plurality of STAs indicated by the plurality of User Info fields, and transmitting, by the AP, a physical layer protocol data unit (PPDU) including the trigger frame to the plurality of STAs.
Claims20
A method for uplink (UL) multi-user (MU) transmission in a wireless local area network (WLAN), the method comprising:
- setting, by an AP, a Common Info field or a plurality of User Info fields of a trigger frame to indicate whether a resource unit (RU) adaptation is enabled for a plurality of STAs indicated by the plurality of User Info fields;
- and
- transmitting, by the AP, a physical layer protocol data unit (PPDU) including the trigger frame to the plurality of STAs.
A method for uplink (UL) multi-user (MU) transmission in a wireless local area network (WLAN), the method comprising:
- receiving, by an STA, a physical layer protocol data unit (PPDU) including a trigger frame from an AP, wherein a Common Info field or a plurality of User Info fields of the trigger frame are set to indicate whether a resource unit (RU) adaptation is enabled for a plurality of STAs indicated by the plurality of User Info fields, wherein the plurality of STAs include the STA;
- and
- decoding, by the STA, the received trigger frame to determine whether the RU adaptation is enabled for the STA.
An AP for UL MU transmission in a WLAN, the AP comprising:
- a processor;
- a transceiver;
- and
- a memory configured to store computer programs;
- wherein the processor is configured to invoke and execute the computer programs stored in the memory to:
- set a Common Info field or a plurality of User Info fields of a trigger frame to indicate whether a resource unit (RU) adaptation is enabled for a plurality of STAs indicated by the plurality of User Info fields;
- and
- cause the transceiver to transmit a physical layer protocol data unit (PPDU) including the trigger frame to the plurality of STAs.
