Method and apparatus for reliable signaling in wireless communication
First Claim
1. An apparatus comprising:
- at least one processor to receive a frame comprising coded data and signaling, to determine received signal quality of the received frame, to determine whether the signaling is reliable based on the received signal quality, and if the signaling is deemed reliable, to recover the signaling and decode the coded data in accordance with the recovered signaling; and
a memory coupled to the at least one processor.

Abstract
Techniques for improving reliability of signaling are described. A transmitter determines if improved reliability is applicable for signaling for a data frame. The transmitter sends the signaling without improved reliability if deemed not applicable and with improved reliability if deemed applicable. A receiver receives the signaling and declares the signaling as reliable or unreliable based on the received signal quality of the received frame and a threshold. The receiver recovers the signaling if deemed reliable and decodes the received frame in accordance with the recovered signaling. The receiver declares the received frame as a null frame or performs some other action if the signaling is deemed unreliable.
