Abstract:
A method for multiple frame transmission in a wireless communication system and a transmitter are provided. The transmitter transmits a request to send (RTS) frame to a receiver. The RTS frame has a first bandwidth. The transmitter receives a clear to send (CTS) frame as a response of the RTS frame from the receiver to establish a transmission opportunity (TXOP) indicating an interval of time when the transmitter has the right to transmit at least one data frame. The CTS frame has a second bandwidth. The transmitter transmits a plurality of data frames sequentially to the receiver during the TXOP.

Claim (Index 6):
A communication apparatus for a first station, the communication apparatus comprising:\n a memory; and at least one processor operably coupled to the memory; wherein the at least one processor, when executing program instructions stored in the memory, is configured to:\n cause the first station to transmit a null data packet announcement frame to a second station; \n cause the first station to transmit a null data packet to the second station; \n cause the first station to receive a feedback from the second station, wherein the feedback is based on the null data packet; \n cause the first station to transmit a request to send (RTS) frame to the second station on each of a plurality of channels to the second station; \n cause the first station to receive a clear to send (CTS) frame on each of one or more of the plurality of channels, wherein the one or more of the plurality of channels are selected by the second station; and \n cause the first station to transmit data to the second station using the one or more of the plurality of channels based on the feedback, \n wherein a number of the plurality of channels is greater than a number of the one or more of the plurality of channels.
