Master station and method for HEW communication using a transmission signaling structure for a HEW signal field

A method performed by an apparatus, the method comprising:

• encoding a high efficiency (HE) packet comprising a plurality of HE signal (HE-SIG) fields, each of the HE-SIG fields comprising an indicator to indicate, an arrangement of resource units (RUs) in frequency for one of a plurality of 20 MHz bands, wherein each HE-SIG field is to configure HE stations to receive a data portion of the HE packet in a corresponding 20 MHz band, and wherein each of the HE-SIG fields is separately encoded for transmission on the corresponding 20 MHz band;
• and
• configuring the HE packet for transmission by a wireless device.

A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium that stores instructions for execution by one or more processors, the instructions to configure the one or more processors to cause an apparatus to:

• encode a high efficiency (HE) packet comprising a plurality of HE signal (HE-SIG) fields, each of the HE-SIG fields comprising an indicator to indicate, an arrangement of resource units (RUs) in frequency for one of a plurality of 20 MHz bands, wherein each HE-SIG field is to configure HE stations to receive a data portion of the HE packet in a corresponding 20 MHz band, and wherein each of the HE-SIG fields is separately encoded for transmission on the corresponding 20 MHz band of the HE packet;
• and
• configure the HE packet for transmission by a wireless device.
