Method and apparatus for signaling transmission characteristics in a wireless communication network
First Claim
Patent Images
1. A method for wireless communication comprising:
- generating a packet that comprises a first portion and a second portion separated by a delimiter, wherein the delimiter is further used to signal a characteristic of the second portion and comprises a plurality of symbols indicating;
a rate of transmission of at least a header of the packet; and
a modulation and coding scheme of the header of the packet;
transmitting the packet; and
wherein the delimiter is based on one of length-128 complementary Colay codes.

Abstract
A wireless network uses an improved frame structure to increase timing acquisition capabilities as well as reduction of spectral lines. In one aspect, the frame packet can be used to communicate the different modes of operation under which the packet was created.
