Abstract
A group scheduling method, a method for selectively receiving information elements according to group scheduling, and a Mobile Station (MS) are provided. The group scheduling method schedules allocation of resources to a plurality of mobile stations by dividing the plurality of mobile stations into at least one group. The group scheduling method includes enabling an index element in a group index corresponding to a group to which a mobile station (MS) scheduled to transmit data belongs and placing a group allocation information element including the group index at the beginning of a MAP. In this method, group scheduling information is transmitted to MSs using a group allocation IE to prevent the MSs from reading unnecessary information transmitted every frame, thereby reducing power consumption of the MSs.
