Abstract

A first station (STA) may receive a physical protocol data unit (PPDU) including user fields associated with the spatial streams of a plurality of stations (STAs). Each of the user fields may include: an indication of a STA identifier (ID), an indication of a spatial stream index, and an indication of a modulation and coding scheme (MCS) of the respective spatial stream of the respective STA. The first STA may determine, based on the indicated STA IDs one or more user fields intended for the first STA. The first STA may determine, for each of the spatial streams of the first STA, an MCS value based on the indicated MCS in the user field intended for the first STA. The first STA may decode the spatial streams intended for the first STA according to the determined MCS values using one or more resource units (RUs) or multiple resource units (MRUs).
