Patent attributes
Methods and systems for wireless communication are disclosed. In one aspect, a method includes generating device specific transmission control information for each of two devices, transmitting the transmission control information for each device over different frequencies, and transmitting data to each of the devices as part of a communication according to the respective transmission control information. In some aspects, the transmission control information for each device is encoded based on an identifier of the device. For example, in some aspects, an error detection value such as a cyclic redundancy check, is exclusive or'ed with an identifier of the device, such as an AID, PAID, or group identifier. The resulting value is transmitted along with the transmission control information. A device receiving the wireless frame may only be able to decode its own transmission control information, as the decoding is also based on the receiving device's identifier.
