1. A method, comprising:

  • obtaining data for a transmission to a wireless communication device, wherein the wireless communication device is configured to process incoming transmissions based on an aggregate data unit format that specifies signaling for aggregating multiple medium access control (MAC) data units;

    including, in a physical (PHY) frame, an aggregate data unit that is based on i) the data and ii) the aggregate data unit format, wherein the aggregate data unit includes a single MAC data unit;

    including, in the PHY frame, an indication to signal that the MAC data unit in the aggregate data unit is singular and to cause the wireless communication device to accept the aggregate data unit without a corresponding block acknowledgement agreement; and

    transmitting the PHY frame to the wireless communication device.
