Abstract
A first client station receives a multi-user physical layer (PHY) data unit from an access point. The multi-user PHY data unit includes i) a PHY preamble, and ii) an MU-MIMO transmission. The PHY preamble includes respective subfields that indicate respective numbers of spatial streams allocated to respective client stations. The respective subfields have been encoded according to an encoding that supports allocating up to sixteen spatial streams to up to eight intended receivers. The respective subfields are arranged in the PHY preamble according to an order. The first client station determines a position of a particular subfield corresponding to the first client station within the order, and uses the position of the particular subfield to decodes the particular subfield to determine a number of spatial streams allocated to the first client station. The first client station processes the determined number of spatial streams in the MU-MIMO transmission.
