Method for transmitting and receiving data in wireless local area network and apparatus for the same

1. A method for transmitting data, performed in a station, the method comprising:

generating a physical layer (PHY) frame including a payload in which a plurality of Medium Access Control protocol data units (MPDUs) are multiplexed; and

transmitting the PHY frame,

wherein the PHY frame includes information on subcarriers occupied by each of the plurality of MPDUs in an Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) symbol of the payload, and

wherein the information on subcarriers include information on the numbers or proportions of subcarriers occupied by each of the plurality of MPDUs in the OFDM symbol of the payload.

2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the plurality of MPDUs have one or more destination addresses or belong to one or more access categories (ACs).

3. The method of claim 1 , wherein the information on subcarriers include an identifier corresponding to one or more stations.

4. The method of claim 1 , wherein the generating the PHY frame further includes:

generating a bit stream in which the plurality of MPDU s are multiplexed;

performing scrambling and encoding on the bit stream;

generating a complex symbol stream by performing constellation mapping on the scrambled and encoded bit stream; and

generating the PHY frame including the payload comprising the complex symbol stream.

5. A method for receiving data, performed in a station, the method comprising:

receiving a physical layer (PHY) frame including a payload in which a plurality of Medium Access Control protocol data units (MPDUs) are multiplexed;

obtaining information on subcarriers occupied by each of the plurality of MPDU s in an Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) symbol of the payload from the PHY frame; and

obtaining at least one MPDU included in the payload based on the information on subcarriers,

wherein the information on subcarriers include information on the numbers or proportions of subcarriers occupied by each of the plurality of MPDUs in the OFDM symbol of in the payload.

6. The method of claim 5 , wherein the obtaining at least one MPDU further includes:

generating a first bit stream by performing constellation demapping on the payload;

generating a second bit stream in which the plurality of MPDUs are included by performing decoding and descrambling on the first bit stream; and

obtaining at least one MPDU from the second bit stream based on the information on subcarriers.

7. The method of claim 5 , wherein the plurality of MPDUs have one or more destination addresses or belong to one or more access categories (ACs).

8. The method of claim 5 , wherein the information on subcarriers include an identifier corresponding to one or more stations.
