Abstract
An Access Point (AP) may allocate Resource Units (RUs) of a bandwidth of a Multi-User (MU) frame, including determining that an RU is not allocated to a station; determine a value of an RU Allocation Subfield according to the allocation of the RUs, the value of the RU Allocation Subfield indicating that the RU is not allocated; and generate a High Efficiency Signal B (HE-SIG-B) field including the RU Allocation Subfield in a common info field thereof. An AP may perform an MU transmission by transmitting a length to a station; determining identifiers each having the length; and transmitting an HE-SIG-B field including one of the identifiers to the station after transmitting the length. An AP may perform an MU transmission by allocating RUs and responding to receiving a frame from a station by transmitting a Multi-User Acknowledgement (MU-ACK) frame that includes information on the allocation of the RUs.
