Provided are a method and device for processing an uplink (UL) signal in a WLAN system. An access point (AP) receives a request to send (RTS) frame from one station (STA) among a plurality of STAs, transmits a group identifier (ID) of a group to which STAs for performing UL multi user multiple-input multiple-output (MU-MIMO) transmission together with the one STA, among group IDs of a group to which the one STA belongs, and receives UL signals from the STAs which perform the UL MU-MIMO transmission such that the received UL signals are processed.

Method and device for processing uplink signal in WLAN system

The present invention relates to a method and apparatus for transmitting a frame in a wireless LAN system. An access point (AP) receives a single orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) symbol from each of a plurality of stations (STA) and a single-tone request to send (sRTS) frame through a single subcarrier, selects STAs for performing uplink (UL) multiuser (MU)-multiple input multiple output (MIMO) transmission, and transmits to the plurality of STAs a single-tone clear to send (sCTS) frame allocated to the same subcarrier as a subcarrier to which the sRTS frames received from the selected STAs are allocated.
