    Abstract: Improved uplink multi-user (UL MU) resource allocation is proposed. For the UL MU scheduling information of trigger frame, N (N>1) bits indicate allocated resource unit (RU) in unit of 26-tone RU, 52-tone RU, 106-tone RU, 242-tone RU, 484-tone RU and 996-tone RU in 80 MHz, and indicates the allocated RU in 80+80 MHz. The UL MU scheduling information of a multi-user request-to-send (MU-RTS) frame indicates an allocated channel corresponding to ‘242*M’-tone RU with a same bit pattern as the N bits of the first UL MU scheduling information, wherein ‘M’ is an integer greater than 0.

    Abstract: According to an embodiment of the present invention, a method for managing a network allocation vector (NAV) by a station (STA) in a wireless LAN system supporting a high efficiency physical layer protocol data unit (HE PPDU) comprises the steps of: receiving a frame including an HE-SIG A field and an MAC header; and updating an NAV on the basis of a transmission opportunity duration (TXOP) field included in the HE-SIG A field, wherein, in the step of updating the NAV, the STA may set, for the NAV of the STA, a TXOP duration value indicated by the TXOP duration field when the TXOP duration value indicated by the TXOP duration field is larger than a current NAV value configured by the STA, and the STA may reset the NAV of the STA without comparison with the current NAV value when the TXOP duration field indicates a predetermined value.

    Abstract: The present document relates to a wireless communication system and, more specifically, to a method for flexibly supporting resource allocation in a wireless LAN system, and a method and an apparatus for signal transmission using the same. To this end, a first STA configures a radio frame comprising: a signaling (SIG) field including control information; and a data field in which data can be transmitted via a discontinuous channel or a channel having a bandwidth size that is supported by a legacy system. When the first STA transmits the configured radio frame to a second STA, the SIG field preferably comprises: information about a full bandwidth in which data can be transmitted via the data field; and null indicator information indicating a channel region of the full bandwidth that is not used in data transmission, or used channel indicator information indicating a channel region of the full bandwidth that is used in data transmission.

    Abstract: The present invention discloses a method and device for downlink multi-user (DL MU) transmission in a wireless communication system. In particular, the method for downlink multi-user data transmission in the wireless communication system includes the steps of receiving, by a station (STA), a DL MU data frame from an access point (AP) and transmitting, by the STA, an acknowledgement (ACK) frame in response to the DL MU data frame, wherein a plurality of ACK frames transmitted by a plurality of STAs in response to the DL MU data frame is multiplexed to configure an uplink multi-user (UP MU) ACK frame, and the time and/or size of a frequency resource at which the ACK frame is transmitted may be determined according to the level of a modulation and coding scheme (MCS) that is applied to the ACK frame.

    Abstract: A method and a device for receiving a multicast frame in a wireless LAN are disclosed. The method for receiving a multicast frame in a wireless LAN comprises the steps of: combining, by an STA, an AP on the basis of an initial access frame transmitted by the AP through a primary channel; setting, by the STA, an operating channel as an exclusive multicast channel on a first time resource, wherein the first time resource and the primary channel are indicated on the basis of the initial access frame; receiving, by the STA, the multicast frame from the AP through the exclusive multicast channel on the first time resource; setting, by the STA, the operating channel as the primary channel on a second time resource; and receiving, by the STA, a unicast frame from the AP through the primary channel on the second time resource.

    Abstract: Disclosed herein is a method of initiating a RTS/CTS procedure at a STA in a wireless LAN system. According to an embodiment of this invention, the method includes receiving, from an AP, one or more RTS transmission control parameters, determining whether to transmit an RTS frame prior to transmitting a first frame, based on the one or more RTS transmission control parameters; and transmitting at least one of the RTS frame or the first frame, wherein the one or more RTS transmission control parameters includes a transmission power threshold for controlling the RTS frame transmission, and wherein the STA transmits the RTS frame prior to transmitting the first frame when a transmission power of the first frame is less than or equals to the transmission power threshold received from the AP.
