Abstract
In an example of wireless communications, an access point may send a downlink frame to multiple stations. The downlink frame may include information indicative of a cyclic prefix length to be utilized by the stations. In response, some or all of the stations may transmit their respective uplink frames to the access point. A cyclic prefix for a portion of each respective uplink frame may have a cyclic prefix length corresponding to the information included in the downlink frame. The downlink frame may be, for example, a beacon frame or a trigger frame. A trigger frame may allocate resources for uplink orthogonal frequency division multiple access (OFDMA) transmission. Other methods, apparatus, and computer-readable media are also disclosed.
