Methods, apparatuses, computer readable media for resource unit indication for extended range packets. An apparatus of a wireless device comprising processing circuitry is disclosed. The processing circuitry may be configured to: encode a high-efficiency (HE) extended range (ER) physical (PHY) layer convergence procedure (PLCP) protocol data unit (HE ER PPDU) including a first portion comprising a HE signal (SIG) field, and including a second portion comprising a data field. The HE SIG field may include an indication of a resource unit (RU) for the second portion. The processing circuitry further configured to configure the access point to transmit the first portion on a 20 MHz channel, and to transmit the second portion on the RU, the RU within the 20 MHz channel.
