1. A station for facilitating multi-user communication in a wireless network, the station comprising:

  • one or more memories; and

    one or more processors coupled to the one or more memories, the one or more processors configured to cause;

    receiving a downlink frame, the downlink frame comprising a first signaling field and a second signaling field;

    determining whether the first signaling field indicates a multi-user (MU)-multi-input multi-output (MIMO) transmission in the downlink frame;

    when the first signaling field indicates the MU-MIMO transmission, determining one or more attributes of the MU-MIMO transmission in the second signaling field;

    when the first signaling field indicates a transmission that is a non-MU-MIMO transmission, determining one or more attributes of the non-MU-MIMO transmission in the second signaling field;

    decoding one or more portions of the downlink frame based on the one or more attributes of the MU-MIMO transmission or the one or more attributes of the non-MU-MIMO transmission; and

    providing the decoded one or more portions of the downlink frame for processing.
