Abstract
Methods and system may be used for collision detection for orthogonal frequency division multiple access (OFDMA)-based random access. A wireless transmit/receive unit (WTRU) may receive, from an access point (AP), a first trigger frame triggering random access using OFDMA. The WTRU may transmit, to the AP, in response to the first trigger frame a trigger-based frame including user specific control information in a signal (SIG) field. The WTRU may receive an acknowledgment/negative acknowledgment (ACK/NAK) message indicating that the trigger-based frame was successfully detected at the AP or that the trigger-based frame was not successfully detected at the AP. The WTRU receive, from the AP, a scheduling retransmission frame including rescheduling information for STAs with corrupted UL transmissions. On a condition that the scheduling retransmission frame indicates that a collision of the trigger-based frame was detected, the WTRU may retransmit the trigger-based frame.
