Abstract

A method includes selecting a frame format for use in transmission of a packet via a wireless network. The transmission is associated with a particular bandwidth. The selected frame format is a first frame format if the particular bandwidth is equal to a threshold bandwidth. The selected frame format is the first frame format or a second frame format if the particular bandwidth is greater than the threshold bandwidth. The second frame format includes a first portion and a second portion. The first portion includes a short training field (STF), a long training field, and a signal A field, and the second portion includes a data portion including a second STF, one or more signal B fields, and a data field. The method further includes generating the packet in accordance with the selected frame format and one or more timing parameters and sending the packet.
