Method For Transmitting He-Ltf Sequence And Apparatus

Patent No. EP3937445 (titled "Method For Transmitting He-Ltf Sequence And Apparatus") was filed by Huawei on Aug 26, 2016. The application was issued on Jun 7, 2023.

Patent Summary

Reducing peak-to-average power ratio (PAPR) in wireless local area network (WLAN) transmissions by optimizing the long training field (LTF) sequence used for channel estimation in orthogonal frequency division multiple access (OFDMA) WLAN systems like WiFi 6 (802.11ax). The method involves generating the LTF sequence specifically for the WLAN tone plan and resource unit (RU) sizes. This reduces PAPR compared to reusing sequences from older OFDM systems. The LTF is generated by selecting subcarriers corresponding to scheduled resource blocks instead of padding with zeros. This provides a better match between the LTF and data subcarriers.
