Abstract:
A method is provided for transmitting data in a wireless local area network. A transmitter generates an encoded data unit by performing a channel coding to transmission data to be included in a data field of a physical layer protocol data unit (PPDU). The transmitter generates at least one spatial block by re-arranging the encoded data unit, and divides each spatial block of at least one spatial block into two frequency segments. A bandwidth of each frequency segment is half of a bandwidth of the each spatial block. The transmitter interleaves the two frequency segments to generate a first interleaved segment and a second interleaved segment, respectively, and generates first and second mapped sequences by respectively mapping the first and second interleaved segments into a signal constellation. The transmitter performs an Inverse Discrete Fourier Transform (IDFT) on the first and second mapped sequences to generate and transmit a transmission signal.
