    Abstract: A first communication device generates a physical layer (PHY) preamble for a PHY data unit to be transmitted via a communication channel, the PHY data unit conforming to a first communication protocol. Generating the PHY preamble includes generating a legacy portion of the PHY preamble to include a legacy signal field, which is decodable by one or more second communication devices that conform to a second communication protocol to determine a duration of the PHY data unit. The PHY preamble is generated to also include a duplicate of the legacy signal field in the PHY preamble, wherein presence of the duplicate of the legacy signal field indicates to one or more third communication devices that conform to the first communication protocol that the PHY data unit conforms to the first communication protocol. The first communication device generates the PHY data unit to include the PHY preamble and a PHY payload.

    Abstract: A communication device determines that an extension field should be included in physical layer (PHY) data unit to provide a receiver with more processing time to process data included in the PHY data unit, wherein the extension field is not required to be processed by the receiver. The communication device generates i) a PHY preamble of the PHY data unit, and ii) a PHY data portion of the PHY data unit, the PHY data unit conforming to a first communication protocol. Each orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) symbol in the PHY data portion is generated with a first tone spacing, which is a fraction 1/N of a second tone spacing defined by a second communication protocol, wherein N is a positive integer greater than one. The communication device also generates the extension field of the PHY data unit, which is appended to an end of the PHY data portion.

    Abstract: A first communication device generates a physical layer (PHY) preamble for a PHY data unit that conforms to a first communication protocol. A first portion of the PHY preamble is generated to include a first signal field having a length subfield that indicates a length of the PHY data unit, A second signal field is generated, and the second signal field and a duplicate of the second signal field are included in the PHY preamble. The PHY preamble is formatted such that the first portion of the PHY preamble is decodable by any second communication device that conforms to a second communication protocol, but does not conform to the first communication protocol, to determine a duration of the PHY data unit based on the length subfield in the first portion of the PHY preamble. The first communication device generates the PHY data unit to include the PHY preamble.

    Abstract: A method includes calculating a set of first metrics using channel information and one or more precoders, where each of the first metrics corresponds to a respective set of a plurality of sets of codebook precoders, and selecting, based on the set of first metrics and a first selection criteria, a set of codebook precoders from the plurality of sets of codebook precoders. The method also includes, in response to selecting the set of codebook precoders, calculating a set of second metrics and selecting, based on (i) the set of second metrics and (ii) a second selection criteria, a codebook precoder from the selected set of codebook precoders. Each of the second metrics is calculated using a respective codebook precoder in the selected set of codebook precoders. The method also includes causing the selected codebook precoder to be applied to a signal to be transmitted to a communication device.

    Abstract: A first signal field to be included in a preamble of a physical layer (PHY) data unit is generated. The first signal field includes formatting information for a second signal field to be included in the PHY data unit. The formatting information includes an indication of a number of orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) symbols in the second signal field. The second signal field is generated according to the formatting information in the first signal field. The second signal field includes formatting information for a data portion of the PHY data unit. The data portion is generated according to the formatting information in the second signal field. The preamble is generated to include at least the first signal field and the second signal field, The PHY data unit is generated to include the preamble and the data portion.
