Abstract: Methods and apparatus are provided for burst OFDMA support MU-MIMO in the WLAN network. In one novel aspect, pluralities of user channels are configured for a downlink wideband channel, wherein each user channel is associated with a user group selecting from a SU-SISO, or a SU-MIMO or a MU-MIMO. In one embodiment, the SIG1 and SIG2 signaling fields are independent for each user channel. In another embodiment, the SIG1 fields are duplicates for all user channels carrying common information. The SIG2 fields for each user group are different from each other carrying user group specific information. In another novel aspect, an uplink OFDMA frames contains ACK packets from multiple STAs concurrently using an uplink wideband channel. In one embodiment, one ACK packet is sent for a MU-MIMO user group. In another embodiment, the uplink ACK packet assignment is based on indications in the downlink PHY SIG field.

Abstract: Various schemes pertaining to proportional round robin segment parser designs for the wider bandwidths and corresponding multi-resource unit (MRU) combinations with either equal modulation (EQM) or unequal modulation (UEQM) in wireless communications are described. An apparatus (e.g., an access point (AP) or a non-AP station (STA)) generates a multi-resource unit (MRU) comprising an aggregate of a plurality of resource units (RUS). The apparatus then transmits the MRU with UEQM or EQM in a bandwidth of 480 MHz or greater.

Abstract: Various schemes pertaining to distributed-tone resource unit (dRU) operation for wide bandwidths next-generation wireless local area network (WLAN) systems are described. A communication entity generates at least one dRU or both the at least one dRU and at least one regular resource unit (rRU). The communication entity then communicates wirelessly using the at least one dRU or using the at least one dRU and the at least one rRU in a 160 MHz, 240 MHz, 320 MHz, 480 MHz or 640 MHz bandwidth.

Abstract: Techniques pertaining to distributed-tone resource unit (RU) designs for wide distribution bandwidth 160 MHz in wireless communications are described. An apparatus (e.g., station (STA)) generates a distributed-tone resource unit (dRU) of 52 tones or more using a 26-tone dRU as a building block. The apparatus then performs a wireless communication in a 160 MHz distribution bandwidth with the dRU.

Abstract: Techniques pertaining to physical-layer (PHY) parameter designs enabling resource unit (RU) duplication and tone repetition for next-generation wireless local area networks (WLANs) are described. An apparatus (e.g., station (STA)) generates an RU or multi-RU (MRU). The apparatus then performs a wireless communication with the RU or MRU. In generating the RU or MRU, the apparatus codes a spatial stream using a binary convolutional coding (BCC) interleaver or a low-density parity-check (LDPC) tone mapper. In performing the wireless communication, the apparatus performs the wireless communication with RU duplication or tone repetition in a frequency domain.

Abstract: Signaling and feedback schemes of channel variation information from WLAN receiver are proposed. WLAN receiver performs channel tracking and obtains channel variation information. The signaling and feedback of channel variation information can help WLAN transmitter to decide when to apply travelling pilots or mid-amble in the transmission. Furthermore, the channel variation information can assist WLAN transmitter for scheduling the next transmission properly and thereby enhancing the system performance of WLAN.
