An electronic device receives a physical layer (PHY) protocol data unit (PPDU) including a PHY preamble including a non-high-throughput (Non-HT) short training field (L-STF), a Non-HT long training field (L-LTF), a Non-HT signal (L-SIG) field, a repeated Non-HT signal (RL-SIG) field, and a universal signal (U-SIG) field. The electronic device checks a control field in the PPDU. The control field indicates whether the PHY preamble in the PPDU carries payload information and the PPDU carries no data field carrying payload information. The electronic device obtains the payload information from the PHY preamble and processes the payload information if the control field indicates that the PHY preamble in the PPDU includes the payload information and the PPDU carries no data field.

Low latency in wireless communication system

A method performed by an apparatus in a wireless local area network (WLAN) is provided. The method comprises: transmitting a first physical layer convergence protocol (PLCP) protocol data unit (PPDU) for a first variant including a first control field and a second PPDU for a second variant including a second control field in A(aggregated)-PPDU, wherein the second PPDU for the second variant is transmitted in duplicate (DUP) mode; and receiving a first response to the first PPDU and a second response to the second PPDU in A-PPDU based on the first control field and the second control field, respectively, wherein the first variant is based on a first protocol standard and the second variant is based on a second protocol standard, and wherein the second protocol standard is beyond version of the first protocol standard.

Method and apparatus for supporting multiple user cascading sequence including A-PPDU in a wireless communication system

A method performed by a transmitter in a wireless local area network (WLAN) is provided. The method comprises: setting a second parameter in a second frame based on a first puncturing pattern indicated by a first parameter in a first frame for a basic service set (BSS) set up by an access point (AP); and transmitting, to a receiver, the second frame, wherein the first puncturing pattern is one of a plurality of puncturing patterns pre-determined for a third parameter in a third frame.

Method and apparatus for configuring puncturing patterns in wireless communication system

A method performed by an apparatus in a wireless local area network (WLAN) is provided. The method includes: transmitting a first NDP Announcement frame for a first variant and a second NDP Announcement frame for a second variant in A-PPDU transmission, wherein the first NDP Announcement frame for the first variant and the second NDP Announcement frame for the second variant have a same time duration and are transmitted in different frequency bands; and transmitting at least one Sounding NDP for the first variant for both at least one first STA for the first variant and at least one second STA for the second variant, wherein the first variant is based on a first protocol standard and the second variant is based on a second protocol standard, and wherein the second protocol standard is beyond version of the first protocol standard.

Method and apparatus for supporting A-PPDU transmission in sounding protocol sequence in a wireless communication system

A method performed by a transmitter in a wireless local area network (WLAN) includes: determining to operate in A(aggregated)-PPDU transmission, wherein the A-PPDU transmission includes transmission of multiple sub-PPDUs with different variants; and transmitting, to a receiver, a trigger frame including a first field and a second field, wherein the first field indicates whether a first special user information field including first additional common information for a first variant is present; and wherein the second field indicates whether a second special user information field including second additional common information for a second variant is present, and wherein the first special user information field is located before the second special user information field in the trigger frame.

Method and apparatus for configuring trigger frame for A-PPDU in a wireless communication system

A method performed by a transmitter in a wireless communication system is provided. The method comprises: identifying that a first parameter used for indicating a first puncturing pattern is set to be not present in a first frame based on predetermined condition; determining whether to operate in duplicate (DUP) mode; and in case that the transmitter determines to operate in the DUP mode, transmitting a second frame in the DUP mode, wherein data in a payload portion of the second frame is duplicated in frequency in the DUP mode.
