Abstract:
Provided are channel sounding and scheduling methods for interference alignment in a wireless LAN. The sounding method includes transmitting a RTS frame, the RTS frame including an OIA candidate AP list that includes identification information of a plurality of access points, transmitting a CTS poll frame for triggering transmission of a CTS frame to a second access point which is a first access point in the OIA candidate AP list, and receiving a CTS frame which is a response to the CTS poll frame from the second access point. Therefore, communication performance of the wireless LAN can be improved.

Abstract:
The phase rotation relates to an apparatus and method of indicating a bandwidth in a wireless communication system. This disclosure discloses a wireless device comprising a transmission transmitting and receiving a wireless signal and a processor operating in operative connection with the transmission, wherein the processor generates a PPDU (physical protocol data unit) to which a phase rotation application is selectively applied depending on a case of bandwidth indication or a case of no bandwidth indication.
Abstract:
Provided is a method and apparatus for selecting a beamformee station (STA) in a multi-user multiple-input and multiple-output (MU-MIMO) communication system, the method including acquiring channel information associated with a beamformee STA among a plurality of beamformee STAs, verifying whether acquiring channel information associated with a subsequent beamformee STA of the beamformee STA is advantageous or disadvantageous, and determining, based on a result of the verifying, whether the channel information associated with the subsequent beamformee STA is acquired.
Abstract:
A method and apparatus for configuring mesh peer link and a method and apparatus for switching channel in wireless mesh network are provided. A method of configuring a mesh peer link in a wireless mesh network includes a first mesh station transmitting a mesh peering open frame to a second mesh station, and the first mesh station receiving a mesh peering confirm frame from the second mesh station in response to the mesh peering open frame, wherein the first mesh station and the second mesh station support a very high throughput (VHT), and wherein the mesh peering open frame and the mesh peering confirm frame comprise a VHT capability information element.
Abstract:
Provided are a transmitter and a method for transmitting a data block in a wireless communication system. The method comprises the following steps: encoding an information bit and generating a block coded with an NCBPSS bit; generating two sub-blocks by parsing the coded block; and transmitting the two sub-blocks to the transmitter. By preventing the bits that are contiguous to the encoding block from having continuous identical reliabilities on a signal constellation, the deterioration of the decoding performance of the transmitter can be prevented.
Abstract:
A method and an apparatus for allocating a flexible transmission slot in a wireless local area network (LAN) system are disclosed. A flexible transmission slot allocation method of an access point (AP) in a wireless local area network (WLAN) system according to an exemplary embodiment includes transmitting a beacon including a traffic indication map (TIM) bit to a station, receiving a power save poll (PS-Poll) from the station in a slot implicitly allocated by the TIM bit, and transmitting an acknowledgement (ACK) including transmission slot allocation information on downlink data to the station.
