Abstract:
1. A method, implemented in a communication device, for generating a physical layer (PHY) data unit for transmission via a communication channel, the method comprising: selecting, in the communication device, a modulation scheme from a plurality of modulation schemes; encoding, in the communication device, information bits to generate encoded data using one or more encoders; selecting, in the communication device, a number of spatial streams N parsing, in the communication device, the encoded data into the number of spatial streams N selecting, in the communication device, a first interleaving parameter N selecting, in the communication device, a second interleaving parameter N interleaving, in the communication device, the encoded data, including entering the encoded data into a matrix having an integer number of rows equal to N modulating, in the communication device, payload information of the PHY data unit according to the modulation scheme, wherein the payload information includes the interleaved encoded data; and forming, in the communication device, a plurality of orthogonal frequency division multiplex (OFDM) symbols based on the modulated payload information.
