Abstract:
A method and terminal are described for allocating resources for transmitting a signal in a multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) wireless communication system. An uplink signal is transmitted using L layers at a terminal in a multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) wireless communication system. Modulation symbols are generated by modulating output bit sequences of an interleaver matrix by a unit of log2 Q bits, where Q is a modulation order. Each of the output bit sequences has a size of L·log2 Q bits. The modulation symbols are mapped to the L layers and transmitted by using the L layers. The output bit sequences are generated by reading out entries of the interleaver matrix, column by column.

The method according to one embodiment includes generating a first very high throughput (VHT) signal, generating a second VHT signal, and transmitting the first VHT signal and the second VHT signal. The first VHT signal includes an indicator indicating that the second VHT signal is to be transmitted by using a single-user multiple input multiple output (SU-MIMO) scheme or a multi-user multiple input multiple output (MU-MIMO) scheme. The first VHT signal and the second VHT signal are used to transmit control information, and the control information includes a modulation and coding scheme (MCS) index indicating an MCS used in the step of transmitting and further includes a spatial stream identifier indicating a number of spatial streams.
Abstract:
A method of transmitting signals by a transmitting end in a wireless communication system comprises sharing control information related to reference signal with a receiving end; generating one or more precoded reference signals considering a given rank; allocating the one or more precoded reference signals to have a specific pattern within a subframe, wherein the specific pattern is varied depending on the control information; and transmitting the subframe through multiple antennas to the receiving end.
Abstract:
According to one embodiment, a method for a wireless local area includes: generating a medium access control (MAC) protocol data unit (MPDU) to be transmitted to a target station; generating a physical layer convergence procedure (PLCP) protocol data unit (PPDU) by attaching a PLCP preamble to the MPDU; selecting a transmission channel; and transmitting the PPDU to the target station over the transmission channel. Selecting the transmission channel includes: performing clear channel assessment (CCA) on a first channel to determine whether the first channel is idle; and only after it is determined that the first channel is idle, selecting the first channel and at least one idle second channel as the transmission channel. The PLCP preamble includes channel allocation information indicating a bandwidth of the transmission channel.

Abstract:
A communication method that includes transmitting a power save multi-poll (PSMP) frame containing a power save mode (PSM) of a non-access point (AP) station (STA) to a first station and to a second station which are paired with an AP on the basis of multiple input multiple output (MIMO) technology. Information on the PSM indicates the point in time of starting a downlink transmission period, the duration of the downlink transmission period, and transmission object station identification information. The method further involves transmitting a data frame to the first station and to the second station on the basis of the MIMO technology during the downlink transmission period. The transmission object station identification information indicates a group identifier for indicating an object station group including the first station and the second station.
