METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR ORDERING SUB-FIELDS OF VHT-SIG-A AND VIT-SIG-B FIELDS
First Claim
Patent Images
1. A method for wireless communications, comprising:
- constructing a Signal (SIG) field with a first portion followed by a second portion, wherein a plurality of sub-fields of the SIG field are allocated between the first and second portions to ensure that a group of the sub-fields common for a Single User (SU) mode and a Multi User (MU) mode is transmitted before another group of the sub-fields not common for the SU and MU modes; and
transmitting the SIG field within a preamble.

Abstract
Certain aspects of the present disclosure relate to a technique of ordering sub-fields within Signal (SIG) fields of a preamble in Very High Throughput (VHT) wireless communications systems and to a technique of managing sizes of these sub-fields.
