A transmitter device includes a controller configured to generate a first field and a second field. The first field is at least one of a packet synchronization information field or a frame boundary indication field, the second field is a channel estimation field starting after the first field ends. The controller is configured to generate the second field at least in part by generating a first channel estimation sequence (CES) symbol and a second CES symbol. At least one of i) a sequence in the first field serves as a cyclic prefix of the first CES symbol, ii) a beginning portion of the second CES symbol serves as a cyclic postfix of the first CES symbol, or iii) an ending portion of the first CES symbol serves as a cyclic prefix of the second CES symbol.
