Abstract:
A wireless access point (WAP) including: antennas, shared and discrete components forming transmit and receive chains coupled to the antenna for orthogonal frequency division multiplexed (OFDM) multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) WLAN communications with wireless stations. The station set identifier identifies any legacy stations that do not support multi-user (MU) MIMO concurrent downlinks from the WAP, and a number of WLAN subnets for concurrent downlinks communications thereto. The subnet controller generates the WLAN subnets each having a discrete beacon channel together with a discrete medium access control (MAC) for collision sense multiple access (CSMA) uplinks from associated stations to the WAP, and concurrent downlinks from the WAP including concurrent downlinks to legacy stations associated with different subnets; and the subnet controller configured to inject virtual access control indicia into each of the subnets to control uplinks from legacy stations on each of the subnets to the WAP.

Claim (Index 2):
The wireless communication apparatus of  claim 1 , wherein the subnet controller selects a one of the subnets for a discrete uplink and transmits a virtual access control indicia on remaining ones of the subnets which prevents uplinks on remaining ones of the subnets during the discrete uplink on the selected one of the subnets.
