First Claim
Patent Images
1. A method of wireless communication, comprising:
- transmitting a quality of service (QoS) message to a device, the QoS message including a request for a transmission opportunity for sending uplink data to the device, the QoS message comprising within at least one of a sequence control field or a QoS control field;
receiving a clear to transmit (CTX) message in response to the QoS message; and
transmitting data to the device in response to the CTX message.

Abstract
Methods and apparatus for multiple user uplink are provided. In one aspect, a method of wireless communication is provided. The method includes transmitting a quality of service (QoS) message to a device. The QoS message includes a request for a transmission opportunity for sending uplink data to the device. The QoS message includes at least one of a sequence control field or a QoS control field. The method further includes receiving a clear to transmit (CTX) message in response to the QoS message. The method further includes transmitting data to the device in response to the CTX message.
