Physical-Layer Parameter Designs Enabling RU Duplication And Tone Repetition For Next-Generation WLAN

Abstract

Techniques pertaining to physical-layer (PHY) parameter designs enabling resource unit (RU) duplication and tone repetition for next-generation wireless local area networks (WLANs) are described. An apparatus (e.g., station (STA)) generates an RU or multi-RU (MRU). The apparatus then performs a wireless communication with the RU or MRU. In generating the RU or MRU, the apparatus codes a spatial stream using a binary convolutional coding (BCC) interleaver or a low-density parity-check (LDPC) tone mapper. In performing the wireless communication, the apparatus performs the wireless communication with RU duplication or tone repetition in a frequency domain.
