Method and system for a new packet preamble for wideband wireless local area network (LAN) systems

摘要

Methods and systems for processing a packet are disclosed herein. Aspects of the method may comprise replicating at least one component of a legacy preamble synchronization symbol to generate a plurality of replicated components of a legacy preamble synchronization symbol. A portion of the generated plurality of replicated components of a legacy preamble synchronization symbol may be grouped and scaled to at least one wide-bandwidth synchronization symbol. A wide-bandwidth preamble may be generated utilizing the wide-bandwidth synchronization symbol. The replicated component of the legacy preamble synchronization symbol may comprise a time domain component and/or a frequency domain component. The time domain component may comprise at least one modulated symbol and the frequency domain component may comprise at least one tone. The grouped generated plurality of replicated components of a legacy preamble synchronization symbol may be scaled with a scaling mask to generate the wide-bandwidth synchronization symbol.
