APPARATUS AND METHOD USED IN WLANS

Abstract:

The application relates to an apparatus and method used in Wireless Local Area Networks (WLANs). The apparatus includes: a Radio Frequency (RF) interface; and processor circuitry coupled with the RF interface and configured to: generate an Extremely High Throughput (EHT) Physical Protocol Data Unit (PPDU); and provide the EHT PPDU to the RF interface for transmitting on a transmission bandwidth, wherein any of distributed Resource Units (dRUs) for transmitting a data portion of the EHT PPDU is associated with a whole or part of an EHT-Short Training Field (STF) sequence constituting the EHT PPDU, and any of the dRUs is a resource unit, subcarriers of which are distributed across one or more frequency sub-blocks within the transmission bandwidth for transmitting the EHT PPDU.
