Claim 0:
1. A method for use in a device, the method comprising:
receiving a plurality of encoded bit streams, wherein each of the plurality of encoded bit streams is associated with one of a plurality of stations (STAs), wherein each of the plurality of STAs is associated with different subcarriers; and
transmitting a multiplexed bit stream for multi-user-multiple input multiple output (MU-MIMO) signal by interleaving the plurality of encoded bit streams and modulating the interleaved plurality of encoded bit streams such that a modulated Orthogonal Frequency-Division Multiple Access (OFDMA) symbol from the interleaved plurality of encoded bit streams includes a plurality of bits from an encoded bit stream associated with a first STA of the plurality of STAs and a plurality of bits from an encoded bit stream associated with a second STA of the plurality of STAs, wherein adjacent bits of the interleaved plurality of encoded bit streams are mapped onto non-adjacent subcarriers of the modulated OFDMA symbol.
