METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR SUPPORTING MODULATION-CODING SCHEME SET IN VERY HIGH THROUGHPUT WIRELESS SYSTEMS

摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide techniques for designing Modulation-Coding Scheme (MSC) set fields in a transmission frame of Very High Throughput (VHT) wireless systems.SOLUTION: A method comprises: constructing, at an apparatus, a frame comprising a first indication about a plurality of MCSs supported by the apparatus for receiving a corresponding different number of spatial streams (SSs); and transmitting the frame. A receiver MCS map 400 is a part of a VHT supported MCS field. A maximum MCS supported for each number of spatial streams received at a station transmitting the receiver MCS map 400 is specified.
