1. A method for sticky region allocation, comprising:

  • negotiating a capability for sticky region allocation;

    establishing a sticky-enabled connection in response to the capability negotiating;

    agreeing to or requesting an allocated data region for the sticky-enabled connection, wherein the allocated data region is allocated based on traffic characteristics from signaling messages and classifier information related to the established sticky-enabled connection;

    receiving a first signal based on a first orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing (OFDM) or orthogonal frequency division multiple access (OFDMA) frame over the sticky-enabled connection;

    locating the allocated data region in the first frame according to a first MAP information element (IE);

    receiving a second signal based on a second OFDM or OFDMA frame, wherein the second signal is received later than the first signal over the sticky-enabled connection; and

    locating the allocated data region in the second frame according to the first MAP IE without using a second MAP IE.
