METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR TRANSCEIVING CHANNEL TRANSMIT POWER INFORMATION IN A WIRELESS COMMUNICATION SYSTEM
First Claim
1. A method for receiving, by a station (STA) from an access point (AP), operating class information, the method comprising:
- receiving, by the STA, a frame including a country element,wherein the country element includes one or more operating/subband sequences,wherein an operating/subband sequence includes an operating triplet, and the operating triplet includes an operating extension identifier field, an operating class field and a coverage class field,wherein, if a predetermined condition is met, the STA identifies that information on the country element is for two frequency segments having an equal width,wherein the predetermined condition is that the received frame comprises two consecutive operating/subband sequences, a first operating triplet of the two consecutive operating/subband sequences indicates a specific behavior mode and a second operating triplet of the two consecutive operating/subband sequences indicates a behavior mode other than the specific behavior mode, andwherein, if the predetermined condition is not met, the STA identifies that the information on the country element is for one frequency segment.

Abstract
A method for receiving operating class information by a station (STA) from an access point (AP). A frame including a country element is received by the STA. The country element includes one or more operating/subband sequences having an operating triplet. The operating triplet includes an operating extension identifier field, an operating class field and a coverage class field. If a predetermined condition is met, the STA identifies that information on the country element is for two frequency segments having an equal width. The predetermined condition is that the received frame comprises two consecutive operating/subband sequences having first and second operating triplets. The first operating triplet indicates a specific behavior mode and the second operating triplet indicates a behavior mode other than the specific behavior mode. If the predetermined condition is not met, the STA identifies that the information on the country element is for one frequency segment.

8. A station (STA) apparatus for receiving operating class information from an access point (AP), the STA apparatus comprising:
-
a transceiver; and a processor, wherein the processor is configured to control the transceiver to receive a frame including a country element, wherein the country element includes one or more operating/subband sequences, wherein an operating/subband sequence includes an operating triplet, and the operating triplet includes an operating extension identifier field, an operating class field and a coverage class field, wherein the processor is further configured to identify that information on the country element is for two frequency segments having an equal width, when a predetermined condition is met, wherein the predetermined condition is that the frame comprises two consecutive operating/subband sequences, a first operating triplet of the two consecutive operating/subband sequences indicates a specific behavior mode and a second operating triplet of the two consecutive operating/subband sequences indicates a behavior mode other than the specific behavior mode, and wherein the processor is configured to identify that the information on the country element is for one frequency segment, when the predetermined condition is not met.
