The method includes sending, to one or more stations (STAs), a request for channel state information (CSI). The request includes a null data packet announcement (NDPA) frame including a first field and a second field. The first field indicates presence of the second field, and the second field indicates a variant of the NDPA frame. The method further includes receiving, from the one or more STAs, a CSI feedback response based on the request. In some embodiments, the first field is one of a sounding dialog token field and indicates the presence of the second field via at least two bits. In some embodiments, the first field is a frame control field and indicates the second field via a 4-bit subtype subfield.[French]
La présente divulgation concerne des procédés et un appareil associés à une indication de trame de NDPA. Un aspect de la divulgation concerne un procédé. Le procédé consiste à envoyer, à une ou à plusieurs stations (STA), une demande d'informations d'état de canal (CSI). La demande comprend une trame d'annonce de paquet de données vide (NDPA) comprenant un premier champ et un second champ. Le premier champ indique la présence du second champ, et le second champ indique une variante de la trame de NDPA. Le procédé consiste en outre à recevoir, à partir de la ou des STA, une réponse de rétroaction de CSI sur la base de la demande. Selon certains modes de réalisation, le premier champ est l'un d'un champ de jeton de dialogue de sondage et indique la présence du second champ par l'intermédiaire d'au moins deux bits. Selon certains autres modes de réalisation, le premier champ est un champ de commande de trame et indique le second champ par l'intermédiaire d'un sous-champ de sous-type de 4 bits.
