Abstract:
A method for generating a physical layer (PHY) data unit includes generating a first signal field to include multiple copies of first signal field content, wherein the first signal field content spans one sub-band of a plurality of sub-bands of the PHY data unit, and wherein the multiple copies collectively span the plurality of sub-bands of the PHY data unit; generating a second signal field to include multiple copies of second signal field content, wherein the second signal field content spans multiple ones of the plurality of sub-bands of the PHY data unit, and wherein the multiple copies of the second signal field collectively span the plurality of sub-bands of the PHY data unit; generating a preamble of the PHY data unit to include at least the first signal field and the second signal field; generating the PHY data unit to include at least the preamble.

Claim (Index 1):
A method for generating a physical layer (PHY) data unit for transmission via a communication channel, the method comprising:\n generating, by a first communication device, a first signal field to include multiple copies of first signal field content, wherein the first signal field content includes an identifier of a wireless network in which the PHY data unit is being transmitted, wherein the first signal field content spans one sub-band of a plurality of sub-bands of the PHY data unit, and wherein the multiple copies collectively span the plurality of sub-bands of the PHY data unit; generating, by the first communication device, a second signal field to include multiple copies of second signal field content, wherein the second signal field content spans multiple ones of the plurality of sub-bands of the PHY data unit, wherein the multiple copies of the second signal field collectively span the plurality of sub-bands of the PHY data unit, wherein generating the second signal field includes:\n generating the second signal field to include (i) a common block of information bits having information for multiple second communication devices and (ii) a plurality of user blocks of information bits, each user block having information for a respective one of the multiple second communication devices, wherein\n the common block includes a frequency resource unit allocation field having a length that varies depending on a bandwidth of the PHY data unit, the frequency resource unit allocation field indicating i) widths and locations of frequency resource units in a data portion of the PHY data unit, and ii) a respective number of users allocated to each frequency resource unit, and \n each of at least some user blocks corresponds to a respective frequency resource unit, includes an identifier of a second communication device to which the user block corresponds, and includes an indication of which one or more spatial streams in the frequency resource unit correspond to the second communication device; \n \n generating, by the first communication device, a preamble of the PHY data unit to include at least the first signal field and the second signal field; and generating, by the first communication device, the PHY data unit to include at least the preamble.
