METHOD AND DEVICE FOR PROCESSING UPLINK SIGNAL IN WLAN SYSTEM
First Claim
1. A method of processing, by an access point (AP), an uplink (UL) signal in a wireless local area network (WLAN) system, the method comprising:
- receiving a request to send (RTS) frame from one station (STA) among a plurality of STAs;
transmitting a group identifier (ID) of a group to which a STA, which will perform UL multi-user (MU) multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) transmission with the one STA, belongs among group IDs of groups to which the one STA belongs; and
receiving UL signals from STAs performing the UL MU-MIMO transmission and processing the received UL signals.

Abstract
Provided are a method and device for processing an uplink (UL) signal in a WLAN system. An access point (AP) receives a request to send (RTS) frame from one station (STA) among a plurality of STAs, transmits a group identifier (ID) of a group to which STAs for performing UL multi user multiple-input multiple-output (MU-MIMO) transmission together with the one STA, among group IDs of a group to which the one STA belongs, and receives UL signals from the STAs which perform the UL MU-MIMO transmission such that the received UL signals are processed.

10. An access point (AP) processing an uplink (UL) signal in a wireless local area network (WLAN) system, the AP comprising:
-
a radio frequency (RF) unit for transmitting or receiving a radio signal; and a processor connected to the RF unit, and configured to; receive a request to send (RTS) frame from one station (STA) among a plurality of STAs; transmit a group identifier (ID) of a group to which a STA, which will perform UL multi-user (MU) multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) transmission with the one STA, belongs among group IDs of groups to which the one STA belongs; and receive UL signals from STAs performing the UL MU-MIMO transmission and processing the received UL signals. - View Dependent Claims (11, 12, 13, 14, 15)
