Abstract:
The present disclosure relates to a method and apparatus for determining a transmission rate in a Wireless Local Area Network (WLAN). According to one aspect of the present disclosure, a method for receiving an uplink frame from a Station (STA) by an Access Point (AP) in a WLAN may be provided. The method may include transmitting to the STA a downlink frame eliciting the uplink frame, and receiving the uplink frame from the STA at a rate determined based on whether the type of the uplink frame is a single user type or a multi-user type.

Claim (Index 7):
The method of  claim 5 , wherein the processing the one or more uplink frames from the one or more stations comprises:\n when the downlink frame elicits the first uplink frame, receiving a single uplink frame having a coding rate determined further based on Modulation and Coding Scheme (MCS) and Number of Spatial Streams (NSS) set information supported for transmission of the single uplink frame, and information about a number of encoders supported for transmission of the single uplink frame.
