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 11):
A method of facilitating wireless communication, the method comprising:\n receiving, from an access point (AP), a plurality of code maps; receiving, from the AP, a downlink frame eliciting one or more uplink frames; generating an uplink frame with a first coding rate based on a first code map of the plurality of code maps when the downlink frame elicits an uplink frame for single-user transmission; generating the uplink frame with a second coding rate based on a second code map of the plurality of code maps when the downlink frame elicits the uplink frame for multi-user transmission; and providing, for transmission, the uplink frame to the AP.
