APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR TRANSMITTING SINGLE CHANNEL, BONDED CHANNEL, AND MIMO OFDM FRAMES WITH FIELDS TO FACILITATE AGC, TIMING, AND CHANNEL ESTIMATION
APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR TRANSMITTING SINGLE CHANNEL, BONDED CHANNEL, AND MIMO OFDM FRAMES WITH FIELDS TO FACILITATE AGC, TIMING, AND CHANNEL ESTIMATION
Disclosed is an apparatus for wireless communications. The apparatus includes a processing system configured to generate a single-channel frame, a bonded channel frame, or a MIMO channel frame. Each of the frame types includes a first portion and a second portion, said first portion being decodable by a first device operating according to a first protocol, said second portion not being decodable by the first device, wherein the first and second portions are decodable by a second device operating according to a second protocol; and an interface configured to output the frame for transmission. The second portion includes a first field including frequency-domain PRBS data for AGC, a second field including a time-domain sequence for timing of input sample window for FFT processing, and a third field including frequency-domain pilots for channel estimation. For MIMO, these fields for different transmit chains are transmitted in a time aligned manner.
