Summary:Techniques for signaling extended sizes for Medium Access Control (MAC) Protocol Data Unit (MPDU), Aggregated MPDU (A-MPDU) and Aggregated MAC Service Data Unit (A-MSDU) frame formats. A first technique proposes modifications to the current specifications of the IEEE 802.11? standard in order to allow for longer MPDUs in an A-MPDU. This technique reuses the IEEE 802.11? signaling format and utilizes reserved bits to convey the new information, i.e. an indication that the maximum length of a MAC RDU, MPDU frame, of an A-MRDU, or ofan A-MSDU is respectively greater than 4095 bytes. 64 kilobytes and 7935 bytes. The second technique proposes a new signaling mechanism to convey the extended sizes for the MPDU, A-MPDU and the A-MSDU through a very high throughput (VHT) capability element. One or more bits may be added to the delimiter field.
