    Abstract: Some aspects of this disclosure include an apparatus, method, and computer program product for wireless local area network (WLAN) link adaptation for multi-user transmission. For example, a receiving device can receive a multi-user-physical layer (PHY) protocol data unit (MU-PPDU) including a preamble and a plurality of data portions. The preamble can include a PHY multi-user-block acknowledgement request (MU-BAR) frame indicating a frequency band for transmitting a trigger-based (TB)-PPDU. The receiving device can decode at least a portion of a first data portion of the and transmit the TB-PPDU including feedback (FB) data corresponding to the first data portion in the frequency band. Even if the decoding of the first data portion fails, the receiving device can use information in the PHY MU-BAR frame to transmit a TB-PPDU to the transmitting device that includes a negative acknowledgment (NACK) frame and a FB sequence number of the MU-PPDU.
