Abstract
Certain aspects of the present disclosure provide methods and apparatuses for generating a frame for wireless transmission, wherein the frame comprises a payload including a plurality of blocks, each block comprising a data portion and a plurality of pilots distributed in the data portion. The distributed pilots may be used by a receiver receiving the frame to perform phase tracking during the data portions of the blocks to reduce phase noise.
