Patent Images
1. An apparatus for wireless communication, comprising:
- an interface configured to obtain an information element (IE) comprising a plurality of parameters; and
a processing system configured to compute a primary channel location to be used for the wireless communication, wherein the computation is based on the plurality of parameters and a function that is independent of a geographical area in which the apparatus is located, wherein the plurality of parameters comprise;
one or more operating class parameter in a first field of the IE; and
a channel width parameter in a second field of the IE; and
another interface configured to output for transmission a signal based on the computed primary channel location.
