Claim:
1. A method for transmitting a frame, the method comprising: generating an aggregate MAC protocol data unit (A-MPDU) including a first A-MPDU subframe and a second A-MPDU subframe; and transmitting the A-MPDU, wherein the first A-MPDU subframe includes a data block which is divided into a first sub data block and a second sub data block, wherein the second A-MPDU subframe includes a forward error correction (FEC) coding block additionally used to decode the data block, wherein each of the first A-MPDU subframe and the second A-MPDU subframe includes an FEC MPDU indication for distinguishing the first A-MPDU subframe and the second A-MPDU subframe by using a first bit, a second bit and a third bit, wherein the first bit is used to indicate the first A-MPDU subframe, wherein the second bit is used to indicate the second A-MPDU subframe including a FEC coding block for the first sub data block, and wherein the third bit is used to indicate the second A-MPDU subframe including a FEC coding block for the second sub data block.
