    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a sounding procedure including uplink multi-user transmission in a High Efficiency WLAN (HEW). According to one aspect of the present disclosure, a method for transmitting a response frame by a responding Station (STA) to a transmitting STA in a wireless local area network may be provided. The method may include receiving, from the transmitting STA, a trigger frame including information related to a Modulation and Coding Scheme (MCS) for the response frame, and transmitting, to the transmitting STA, the response frame according to an MCS determined based on the information related to the MCS for the response frame included in the trigger frame. When a type of the response frame corresponds to a Multiple-User (MU) type, a same MCS may be applied to the response frame by a plurality of STAs including the STA and at least one other STA.

    Abstract: A method implemented by a station (STA) in a Wireless Local Area Network (WLAN) to acknowledge a downlink (DL) multi-user (MU) physical layer (PHY) Protocol Data Unit (PPDU) transmitted by an access point (AP). The method includes receiving the DL MU PPDU, decoding a frame from the DL MU PPDU, where the frame includes an indication requesting the STA to provide a trigger-based immediate acknowledgement, determining whether trigger information for an uplink (UL) MU transmission has been obtained from the DL MU PPDU, responsive to a determination that the trigger information has been obtained from the DL MU PPDU, transmitting a trigger-based immediate acknowledgement frame to the AP during the UL MU transmission, according to the trigger information, and responsive to a determination that the trigger information has not been obtained from the DL MU PPDU, refraining from transmitting the trigger-based immediate acknowledgement frame to the AP.

    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a method and apparatus for beamformed transmission in a wireless local area network. According to one aspect of the present disclosure, a method for transmitting a Physical layer Protocol Data Unit (PPDU) frame to a plurality of stations (STAs) by an Access Point (AP) in a wireless local area network may be provided. The method may include transmitting a SIGNAL field of the PPDU frame, the SIGNAL field including beamforming information indicating whether beamforming is applied to respective data units of the PPDU frame, and transmitting the data units of the PPDU frame, the data units being individually beamformed or not beamformed according to the beamforming information.

    Abstract: A frame exchange in a High Efficiency WLAN (HEW) includes a method for exchanging frames implemented by an access point in a wireless local area network. The method further includes transmitting to one or more stations (STAs) a first frame eliciting a second frame from the one or more STAs in a downlink (DL) Physical layer Protocol Data Unit (PPDU), wherein the DL PPDU carrying the first frame includes information indicating a type of a PPDU carrying the second frame from PPDU types including a Single User (SU) PPDU and a Multiple User (MU) PPDU; and receiving from the one or more STAs the second frame in an uplink (UL) PPDU having a type determined based on the information indicating the type of the PPDU.

    Abstract: A method is implemented by a station (STA) in a Wireless Local Area Network (WLAN) to update a Network Allocation Vector (NAV) maintained by the STA. The method includes receiving a first Physical Layer Protocol Data Unit (PPDU), determining whether a duration indicated in a control field of a preamble portion of the first PPDU is greater than a current NAV value, determining whether the first PPDU is received as an immediate response to a second PPDU previously transmitted by the STA, and updating the NAV maintained by the STA using the duration in response to a determination that the duration is greater than the current NAV value and the first PPDU is not received as an immediate response to the second PPDU previously transmitted by the STA.
