Systems and methods for a data scrambling procedure

摘要

Systems, methods, and devices for communicating in a wireless network are provided. In one aspect, a method for wireless communication is provided. The method includes inserting an indication of a scrambling sequence into a signal field of a first data unit. The signal field occurs before a service field in the first data unit. The method includes scrambling at least a portion of the first data unit based at least on the inserted indication of the scrambling sequence in the signal field of the first data unit. The method includes transmitting the first data unit. The signal field is transmitted at a first data rate and the service field is transmitted at a second data rate greater than the first data rate. The indication of the scrambling sequence comprises either a scrambler seed or one or more parameters indicative of the scrambling sequence.

主权项

1. A method for wireless communication, comprising:
inserting an indication of a scrambling sequence into a signal field of a first data unit, the signal field occurring before a service field in the first data unit, and the scrambling sequence being determined based at least in part on a timing of transmission of the first data unit relative to a start or end of a beacon interval; scrambling at least a portion of the first data unit based at least on the inserted indication of the scrambling sequence in the signal field of the first data unit; and transmitting, via a transmitting device, the first data unit, the signal field being transmitted at a first data rate and the service field being transmitted at a second data rate greater than the first data rate.
