Abstract:
In generating a physical layer (PHY) data unit for transmission via a communication channel, information bits to be included in the PHY data unit are received. A number of padding bits are added to the information bits. The number of padding bits is determined based on respective virtual values of each of one or more encoding parameters. The information bits are parsed to a number of encoders and are encoded, using the number of encoders, to generate coded bits. The coded bits are padded such that padded coded bits correspond to respective true values of each of the one or more encoding parameters. The PHY data unit is generated to include the padded coded bits.

Claim (Index 1):
A method for generating a physical layer (PHY) data unit for transmission via a communication channel, the method comprising:\n receiving, at a communication device, a plurality of information bits to be included in the PHY data unit; determining, at the communication device, a virtual value of an encoding parameter corresponding to a number of bits per orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) symbol, wherein the virtual value is less than a true value of the encoding parameter; prior to encoding the information bits, adding, at the communication device, a number of first padding bits to the information bits, wherein the number of first padding bits is determined using the virtual value of the encoding parameter; encoding, at the communication device, the information bits using one or more encoders to generate coded bits; after encoding the information bits, adding, at the communication device, second padding bits to the coded bits such that a number of coded bits in each of multiple OFDM symbols corresponds to the true value of the encoding parameter; and generating, at the communication device, the PHY data unit to include the coded bits.
