1. A device, comprising:

  • at least one memory that stores computer-executable instructions; and

    at least one processor configured to access the at least one memory, wherein the at least one processor of the one or more processors is configured to execute the computer-executable instructions to;

    determine at least one communication channel with one or more station devices including a first station device and a second station device;

    generate a high efficiency preamble in accordance with a high efficiency communication standard, the high efficiency preamble including, at least in part, a first high efficiency SIGNAL field and a second high efficiency SIGNAL field;

    partition the second high efficiency SIGNAL field into a common subfield and one or more device specific subfields, wherein the common subfield includes one or more of a resource allocation, a spatial stream allocation, or a number of legacy training fields (LTF);

    determine to allocate a predetermined number of streams in the high efficiency preamble to indicate, to the one or more station devices, one or more resource units that are not allocated; and

    cause to send the high efficiency preamble to at least one of the one or more station devices.
