Abstract:
A boundary within a last orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) symbol of a PHY data unit is determined. Pre-encoder padding bits are added to a set of information bits to generate a set of padded information bits such that the set of padded information bits, after being encoded, fill one or more OFDM symbols up to the boundary within the last OFDM symbol. The set of padded information bits are encoded to generate a set of coded bits. A PHY preamble is generated to include a subfield that indicates the boundary. The one or more OFDM symbols are generated to include (i) the set of coded information bits in the one or more OFDM symbols up to the boundary to allow a receiving device to stop decoding the one or more OFDM symbols at the boundary, and (ii) post-encoder padding bits in the last OFDM symbol following the boundary.

Claim (Index 2):
The method of  claim 1 , further comprising:\n for each of the second communication devices, determining, at the first communication device, a respective initial boundary within the last OFDM symbol; and determining, at the first communication device, the common boundary based at least in part on the determined respective initial boundaries within the last OFDM symbol.
