Claim 5:
6. The apparatus of claim 3, wherein the frame carried in the EHT PPDU soliciting the control response frame comprises a data or control frame soliciting a block acknowledgement (BA), and
wherein the processing circuitry is configured to:
calculate a duration of a non-HT PPDU containing the BA sent at a primary rate; and
encode an HE SU PPDU for transmission to carry the solicited BA when a transmit time of the HE SU PPDU is less than the calculated duration of the non-HT PPDU; or
encode an EHT PPDU for transmission to carry the solicited BA when a transmit time of the EHT PPDU is less than the calculated duration of the non-HT PPDU.
