Abstract:
1. A method of wireless communications via orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing (OFDM) or orthogonal frequency division multiple access (OFDMA), comprising: generating an OFDM or OFDMA frame having a downlink map (DL-MAP) and two or more data bursts, the data bursts having a temporal order, wherein the temporal order of the data bursts is based on ending symbols of the data bursts when the data bursts share a same starting symbol such that a data burst having an intermediate ending symbol is not earlier than a data burst having an earlier ending symbol and not later than a data burst having a later ending symbol; arranging two or more DL-MAP information elements (IEs) for locating the data bursts to have the same temporal order in the DL-MAP as the data bursts; and transmitting a signal based on the OFDM or OFDMA frame with the arranged DL-MAP IEs.
