Abstract
Embodiments of a method and an apparatus for wireless communications are disclosed. In an embodiment, a method for wireless communications involves generating a packet for transmission to a user, where generating the packet includes: encoding user signaling parameters and setting a station-identification (STA-ID) of the user to a value, where the signaling parameters include a number of space time streams (nSTS) spatial streams, establishing a dummy user without changing the user signaling parameters, setting a STA-ID of the dummy user to a value that is different from the STA-ID value of the user, indicating the nSTS spatial streams that are allocated to the dummy user and that are to include Long Training Field (LTF) symbols, and transmitting the packet to the user with the LTF symbols.
