    Abstract: Methods and apparatus are provided for structured resource allocation signaling. In one novel aspect, an 8-bit RU allocation filed is allocated in the HE-SIG-B common field for each 20 MHz. The structured resource signaling supports more than four MU-MIMO users. In one embodiment, the STA decodes the 8-bit RU allocation signal following a structured resource unit (RU) allocation rule, and determines the RU. In one embodiment, the STA decodes the first two bits of the 8-bit RU allocation signal to determine a first category of the RU allocation. The categories of the RU allocation includes a large RU size category indicating larger than or equal to 20 MHz RUs exist, a two 106-tone category indicating two 106-tone RUs exist, and a no-large-RU category indicating only smaller-than-242-tone RUs exist. The STA further decodes based on the category. A lookup table (LUT) for RU allocation is built and decoded based on a structured signaling rule.

    Abstract: A new lower density parity check (LDPC) tone mapper is proposed when DCM is applied for a given resource unit (RU) when LDPC is used as the channel control coding. For HE PPDU transmission with DCM, LDPC encoded streams are first modulated by a DCM constellation mapper. The modulated symbols of the lower half of the frequency segment and the modulated symbols of the upper half of the frequency segment are modulated using the same LDPC encoded bits using DCM mapping. The modulated symbols of the lower half of the frequency segment are mapped to lower half of the data subcarriers using DCM LDPC tone mapper. The modulated symbols of the upper half of the frequency segment are mapped to upper half of the data subcarriers using the same DCM LDPC tone mapper. Maximum frequency diversity for DCM can be achieved.
