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 17):
The method of  claim 15 , wherein, when the downlink frame elicits the single uplink frame, the first coding rate is 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, information about a number of encoders supported for transmission of the single uplink frame.
