Patent ID: 11909672

Abstract:
A wireless communication system and, more particularly, to a method for performing efficient signaling for a reserved sub-band in a wireless LAN system, and a method and an apparatus for signal transmission using the same. To this end, an STA provides resource allocation information for transmitting data to a plurality of STAs using an orthogonal frequency divisional multiple access (OFDMA) or multiple user MIMO (MU-MIMO) method; transmits the resource allocation information to the plurality of STAs; and transmits data to the plurality of STAs according to the resource allocation information. The entire frequency band may include a sub-band which is not used for the data transmission, and it is preferable that the resource allocation information includes a resource allocation bitmap having a form common to the plurality of STAs and indication information which informs a sub-band, from among the entire frequency band, which is not used for the data transmission.
