Abstract:
A method for communicating in a wireless local area network, and a device therefore are discussed. The method according to one embodiment includes selecting, by a transmitting station, a transmission channel; and transmitting, by the transmitting station, a Physical layer Protocol Data Unit (PPDU) over the selected transmission channel to a receiving station. The transmission channel includes a primary channel and a first channel if the first channel was idle. The transmission channel includes the primary channel, the first channel and a second channel if both the first channel and the second channel were idle. The primary channel is positioned between the first channel and the second channel if the transmission channel includes the primary channel, the first channel and the second channel.

Abstract:
A method and a station are described for transmitting a data frame in a wireless local area network (WLAN). The station obtains a transmission opportunity (TXOP) and transmits, during the TXOP, a preceding data unit of a plurality of data units comprising a control field indicating a selected bandwidth for the preceding data unit. The station selects a transmit bandwidth parameter of a non-initial data unit of the plurality of data units from available bandwidth parameters. The available bandwidth parameters include a first available bandwidth parameter which is same as a transmit bandwidth parameter of the preceding data unit of the plurality of data units and a second available bandwidth parameter which is narrower than a transmit bandwidth parameter of the preceding data unit. The station transmits, during the TXOP, the non-initial data unit, which comprises a control field indicating a selected bandwidth for the non-initial data unit.
