SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR WLAN OFDMA DESIGN OF UPLINK AND DOWNLINK TRANSMISSIONS |
摘要 |
Embodiments are provided for WLAN Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiple Access (OFDMA) design of subcarrier groups and corresponding frame format. An embodiment method includes grouping a plurality of subcarriers for OFDMA transmissions into a plurality of subcarrier groups in accordance with a pre-defined grouping structure for subcarriers. The method further includes allocating the subcarrier groups to a plurality of corresponding users, and signaling, to the users, a map of the subcarrier groups to the corresponding users. According to the pre-defined grouping structure, each one of the subcarrier groups includes a plurality of consecutive subcarriers, a plurality of non-consecutive subcarriers, or a combination of consecutive and non-consecutive subcarriers according to a deterministic structure. The map is signaled using an OFDMA PPDU comprising a legacy preamble portion configured to silence legacy users that do not use OFDMA communications, an OFDMA preamble portion indicating the map, and a data portion. |
