- the HE-SIGA may include common control information commonly received by an STA receiving a PPDU.
- the HE-SIGA may be transmitted in two or three OFDM symbols.

Increasing the FFT size reduces the OFDM subcarrier spacing, thereby increasing the number of OFDM subcarriers per unit frequency, but may increase the OFDM symbol time. To increase the efficiency, the GI length after the HE-STF may be set equal to the GI length of the HE-SIGA.
- FIG. 3 shows another example of a PPDU format for a proposed WLAN.
- the FFT size per unit frequency can be further increased.

- the HE-SIGB contains information specific to each STA, but is encoded over the entire band. That is, the HE-SIGB can be received by all STAs. From HE-STF (or after HE-SIGB), the FFT size per unit frequency can be further increased.
- legacy STAs supporting legacy IEEE 802.11a / g / n / ac cannot decode the corresponding PPDU.
- the L-STF, L-LTF, and L-SIG are transmitted through a 64 FFT on a 20 MHz channel so that the existing STA can be received.
- L-SIG occupies one OFDM symbol, one OFDM symbol time is 4us, and GI has 0.8us.
- the HE-SIGA includes information necessary for the HE STA to decode the HE PPDU, but may be transmitted through a 64 FFT in a 20 MHz channel so that both the legacy STA and the HE STA can be received. This is for the HE STA to receive not only the HE PPDU but also the existing HT / VHT PPDU. At this time, it is necessary for the legacy STA and the HE STA to distinguish between the HE PPDU and the HT / VHT PPDU.
- the phase of constellation for OFDM symbols transmitted after L-STF, L-LTF, and L-SIG is used.
- OFDM symbol # 1 is the first OFDM symbol after L-SIG
- OFDM symbol # 2 is the OFDM symbol following OFDM symbol # 1
- OFDM symbol # 3 is the OFDM symbol following OFDM symbol # 2.
- the constellation phases used for the 1st OFDM symbol and the 2nd OFDM symbol are the same.
- Binary phase shift keying (BPSK) is used for both the 1st OFDM symbol and the 2nd OFDM symbol.
- the phases used in the OFDM symbol # 1 and the OFDM symbol # 2 are the same, and are rotated 90 degrees counterclockwise.
- a modulation method having a 90 degree rotated constellation is called quadrature binary phase shift keying (QBPSK).
- the phase in OFDM symbol # 1 is not rotated, but the phase in OFDM symbol # 2 is rotated 90 degrees counterclockwise in the same way as the HT PPDU. Since the VHT-SIGA is transmitted after the L-SIG and the VHT-SIGA is transmitted in 2 OFDM symbols, OFDM symbol # 1 and OFDM symbol # 2 are used for transmission of the VHT-SIGA.
- the HE-PPDU may use the phase of three OFDM symbols transmitted after the L-SIG.
- the phases of OFDM symbol # 1 and OFDM symbol # 2 are not rotated, but the phase of OFDM symbol # 3 is rotated 90 degrees counterclockwise.
- OFDM symbols # 1 and # 2 use BPSK modulation, and OFDM symbols # 3 use QBPSK modulation.
- the HE-SIGA is transmitted after the L-SIG and the HE-SIGA is transmitted in 3 OFDM symbols, all of the OFDM symbols # 1 / # 2 / # 3 may be used for transmission of the HE-SIGA.
- the HE system is considering the introduction of orthogonal frequency division multiple access (OFDMA). This allows a plurality of STAs to simultaneously access a plurality of subbands, thereby improving frequency efficiency.
- OFDMA orthogonal frequency division multiple access
- the subband or subchannel refers to a resource unit that can be allocated to each STA or a bandwidth of the smallest unit to support.
- the STA may scan all subbands simultaneously to detect subbands (eg, idle subbands) that it can use.

- an OFDMA-based system can transmit and receive data using a plurality of discontinuous subbands.
- STA1 uses a 20 MHz channel 620
- STA2 also uses a 20 MHz channel 630.
- the HE STA uses an 80 MHz channel 610. If the HE STA, the STA1, and the STA2 simultaneously use the corresponding channel, the band emission of the STA1 and the STA2 may affect the spectrum of the HE STA due to interference.
- an 80 MHz channel 610 of an HE STA is divided into four subbands 611, 612, 613, and 614, and a second subband 612 is allocated to the HE STA. If the HE STA transmits the first PPDU on the second subband 612, and the STA1 transmits the second PPDU on the 20 MHz channel 620, the side robe and the first robe of the 20 MHz channel 620 transmission are lost. Interference may occur because some of the two subbands 612 overlap.
- SBW subband bandwidth refers to the bandwidth of the subband.
- TBW total bandwidth refers to the total bandwidth of a plurality of subbands.
- TBW may be 160 MHz, 80 MHz, 40 MHz or 20 MHz.

- the number of guard subcarriers in each guard region may be allocated as equally as possible except for the data subcarriers among the total subcarriers in the TBW.
- the total number of subcarriers is 256. If the number of guard subcarriers across the TBW is 11, 245 subcarriers remain. If three guard regions 751, 752, and 753 are defined as shown in FIG. 7, the number of guard subcarriers of the first guard region 751 and the third guard region 753 is 6, and the second guard is respectively.

- the total number of subcarriers is 1024. If the number of guard subcarriers across the TBW is 11, 1013 subcarriers remain. If three guard regions 751, 752, and 753 are defined as shown in FIG. 7, the number of guard subcarriers of the first guard region 751 and the third guard region 753 is 14 and the second guard is respectively.
- the number of guard subcarriers in the area 752 may be 17.
- the guard area structure of TBW 160 MHz may be repeatedly applied to the structure of TBW 80 MHz.
- each frequency index of the subband is matched with the right most or left most frequency index of the SBW, as shown in FIG. Therefore, the size of the subband of the TBW may be configured to be the same as the SBW. If four times FFT is applied, the number of subcarriers included in each subband is increased four times.
- the frequency position is the start and end of each subband regardless of whether the N-times FFT is applied to the SBW because the number of tones is scaled up to the existing FFT subcarrier tones. And it can be applied by adjusting the frequency position where the guard region starts and ends.
- TBW applies N-times FFT and SBW applies only 1x FFT, but the frequency index is different. This is equal to the subcarrier spacing of 1x FFT being 312.5 kHz and the subcarrier spacing of 1x FFT being N times the subcarrier spacing of N-times FFT, such as the subcarrier spacing of 4-times FFT is set to 78.125 kHz.
