METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR CONFIGURING PROTOCOL HEADER IN WIRELESS COMMUNICATION SYSTEM

摘要

Provided are a method of configuring a protocol header in a wireless communication system, and a communication apparatus and method using the protocol header configuration method. The protocol header may include a fixed length physical layer (PHY) header containing information associated with the number of Media Access Control (MAC) service data units, a variable length PHY header containing information associated with a segment constituting a payload, a MAC header containing information associated with the MAC service data units, and a Header Check Sequence (HCS) checking an error regarding a combination of the fixed length PHY header, the variable length PHY header, and the MAC header.
