| 20150117569 | Phase rotation for preambles within multiple user, multiple access, and/or MIMO wireless communications - Phase rotation for preambles within multiple user, multiple access, and/or MIMO wireless communications. An appropriately designed phase rotation vector and/or appropriately designed cyclic shift delays (CSDs) are applied to respective sub-band components of the preamble. With appropriately designed CSDs, certain fields within the preamble are not modified. For example, a legacy short training field (L-STF) of the preamble is not changed when using appropriately designed CSDs. The respective CSDs may be implemented as integer multiples of a common CSD (e.g., 0×CSD, 1×CSD, 2×CSD, etc. such that one of the values of such a CSD vector may be zero [0], another may be the common CSD itself, etc.). Also, by employing an appropriately designed phase rotation vector and integer multiples of a CSD to a preamble, the respective peak to average power ratio (PAPR) between different respective fields within the preamble may be minimized. | 04-30-2015 |
