- WLAN has become one of the mainstream mobile broadband access technologies due to its high speed and low cost advantages.
- the next-generation IEEE 802.11ax standard further adopts OFDMA technology based on the existing OFDM technology.
- the OFDMA technique divides the air interface time-frequency resources of the air interface into a plurality of orthogonal RBs, and the RBs may be common in the time domain and orthogonal in the frequency domain.
- OFDMA technology supports multiple nodes to simultaneously send and receive data.
- the resource allocation is performed based on the RB or the RB group; different channel resources are allocated to different STAs at the same time, so that multiple STAs access the channel efficiently, thereby improving channel utilization.
- the uplink data transmission is a single point to single point transmission, as shown in Figure 1, that is, at the same time, the same channel (or the same spectrum), only one STA transmits data to the AP; downlink data transmission is also a single point For single-point transmission, that is, at the same time, the same channel (or the same spectrum), the AP only transmits data to one STA.
- next-generation WLAN such as HEW
- the uplink data transmission will no longer be a single-point to single-point transmission, but a multi-point to single-point transmission, as shown in Figure 2, that is, at the same time.
- the same channel (or the same spectrum) there are multiple STAs transmitting data to the AP at the same time; the downlink data transmission is no longer a single-point to single-point transmission, but a single-point to multi-point transmission, that is, at the same time,
- the AP transmits data to multiple STAs simultaneously. Therefore, designing an efficient method for indicating resource allocation to cope with multi-point to single-point transmission and single-point to multi-point transmission in HEW system is an urgent technical problem to be solved.
- the PPDU for transmitting the resource allocation instruction information in the 802.11ax system can guarantee the traditional The compatibility of the transmission frame format in the WLAN system, the physical layer frame format of the transmission frame is shown in FIG. 3, and the traditional leading part Legacy-preamble is used for automatic detection of repeated L-SIG, HE-SIG-A and HE-SIG. -B, where Legacy-preamble includes traditional short training sequence domain, traditional long training sequence domain and traditional signaling domain; HE-SIG-A includes common settings of BW, GI, and HE-SIG-B length and modulation coding Signaling; HE-SIG-B is used to indicate related information such as user resource allocation. Legacy-preamble and HE-SIG-A need to be sent repeatedly at 20MHz.
- HE-SIG-B is variable length, but the length on each channel needs to be aligned before the High Efficiency Short Training Field (HE-STF) of the high efficiency packet.
- HE-STF High Efficiency Short Training Field
- the AP needs to send to multiple users, and each user may only be allocated a part of the frequency resource unit (RU) in the OFDMA band.
- the entire channel includes a plurality of unit channels (or 20 MHz channels), and the RUs may be a group of subcarriers within 20 MHz, or may include some or all of the plurality of 20 MHz channels.
- HE-SIG-B Resource Allocation Information
- Joint Coding/CRC Joint Coding/CRC
- the user can detect its own resource allocation information on the primary channel, and can also use the information received on the non-primary channel to perform Maximum Ratio Combing (MRC) and receive the diversity, thereby improving the receiving performance.
- MRC Maximum Ratio Combing
- the 80 MHz bandwidth includes four 20 MHz channels, and the HE-SIG-B information is repeatedly transmitted four times on four unit channels, which is high in robustness but too expensive.
- HE-SIG-B Resource Allocation Information
- Joint Coding/CRC Joint Coding/CRC
- Another possible solution is to use the resource allocation information of each user on the channel or the user group to separately encode and detect (Individual Coding/CRC), and each sub-information included in the HE-SIG-B is transmitted on the respective channel. Users can detect their own resource allocation information on the channel where they allocate resources.
- the sub-information of HE-SIG-B on each unit channel (20 MHz channel) is taken as an example of HE-SIG-B sub-information a, HE-SIG-B.
- the sub-information b, the sub-information c of HE-SIG-B and the sub-information d of HE-SIG-B are not repeated.
- HE-SIG-B Because the sub-information of HE-SIG-B of each channel needs time alignment, HE-SIG-B The overhead is determined by the largest of the four channels of sub-information, while the channel with a smaller sub-information needs to send a long or short useless information to make up the difference. This will cause a waste of resources to some extent, and when a channel is interfered, the reception of the sub-information of HE-SIG-B on the channel will be affected.
- the above methods all send HE-SIG-B according to preset rules, and the sending method is not flexible. As a result, no matter which transmission method is selected, or a large overhead is used to ensure robustness, or robustness is sacrificed in order to save overhead, when the channel is interfered, the HE-SIG-B on the channel The reception of information will be affected.

Abstract
L'invention concerne un procédé de communication, un point d'accès (AP), et une station (STA). Le procédé comprend les étapes consistant à : transmettre, par un Point d'Accès (AP), sur une voie élémentaire principale utilisée par une bande passante opérationnelle, des informations d'indication publiques à des utilisateurs programmés, les informations d'indication étant configurées pour indiquer un mode de transmission de n sous-informations privées des utilisateurs programmés sur la bande passante opérationnelle, n étant un nombre entier positif ; et transmettre, par l'AP, selon le mode de transmission, les n sous-informations sur la voie élémentaire utilisée par la bande passante opérationnelle. En transmettant les informations d'indication publiques aux utilisateurs programmés sur la voie élémentaire principale utilisée par une bande passante opérationnelle pour indiquer le mode de transmission des informations privées des utilisateurs programmés sur la bande passante opérationnelle, et en transmettant et en recevant, par l'AP et la STA respectivement, les informations privées des utilisateurs programmés selon le mode de transmission, le procédé de communication, l'AP et la STA décrits dans les modes de réalisation de la présente invention peuvent garantir la robustesse des informations privées des utilisateurs tout en réduisant le surdébit de signalisation du système et en augmentant l'efficacité du système.
