Abstract
The present disclosure provides communication apparatus and communication method for control signaling. The communication apparatus comprises circuitry, which, in operation, generates a transmission signal comprising a first signal field which comprises a first part and a second part, each comprising an equal number of data bits, wherein the data bits of the second part of the first signal field does not comprise version independent bits; and a transmitter, which, in operation, transmit the generated transmission signal.
Claims14
A communication apparatus, comprising:
- circuitry, which, in operation, generates an Extremely High Throughput Physical layer Protocol Data Unit (EHT PPDU) comprising an Universal Signal (U-SIG) field and an EHT Signal (EHT-SIG) field,
- wherein
- the U-SIG field contains U-SIG field 1 and U-SIG field 2, each comprising an equal number of data bits, and the data bits of the U-SIG field 2 do not comprise version independent bits,
- the EHT-SIG field contains a Common field and a User Specific field being together referred to as an EHT-SIG content channel,
- both the U-SIG field and the EHT-SIG field are present in the EHT PPDU transmitted to a single station (STA) or multiple STAs, and
- in case the EHT PPDU is transmitted to the single STA, the User Specific field comprises a single User field, and the EHT PPDU contains a single EHT content channel regardless of a bandwidth of the EHT PPDU, the single EHT content channel being duplicated for each 20 MHz frequency segment;
- and
- a transmitter, which, in operation, transmits the EHT PPDU.
A communication method for a communication apparatus, the communication method comprising:
- generating an Extremely High Throughput Physical layer Protocol Data Unit (EHT PPDU) comprising an Universal Signal (U-SIG) field and an EHT Signal (EHT-SIG) field,
- wherein
- the U-SIG field contains U-SIG field 1 and U-SIG field 2, each comprising an equal number of data bits, and the data bits of the U-SIG field 2 do not comprise version independent bits,
- the EHT-SIG field contains a Common field and a User Specific field being together referred to as an EHT-SIG content channel,
- both the U-SIG field and the EHT-SIG field are present in the EHT PPDU transmitted to a single station (STA) or multiple STAs, and
- when the EHT PPDU is transmitted to the single STA, the User Specific field comprises a single User field, and the EHT PPDU contains a single EHT content channel regardless of a bandwidth of the EHT PPDU, the single EHT content channel being duplicated for each 20 MHz frequency segment;
- and
- transmitting the EHT PPDU.
