Abstract

A transmitting apparatus according to one aspect of the present disclosure transmits a plurality of first transmission data and a plurality of second transmission data by using an OFDM (Orthogonal Frequency-Division Multiplexing) method. The transmitting apparatus includes frame configuring circuitry, which in operation, generates a frame including a first period in which a preamble is transmitted, a second period in which the plurality of first transmission data is multiplexed by a time division multiplexing method and is transmitted, and a third period in which the plurality of second transmission data is multiplexed by a frequency division multiplexing method and is transmitted; and transmitting circuitry that transmits the frame.

Claims (30)

1. A transmitting method comprising:

generating a frame by allocating time and frequency resources to a plurality of data transmitted by using an orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing (OFDM) method; and

transmitting the frame,

wherein the frame includes a first period in which a preamble including control information is transmitted, and a second period in which a plurality of transmission data groups is transmitted, each of the plurality of transmission data groups to be transmitted in the second period being transmitted by using a part of the frequency resources among an entirety of the frequency resources included in the second period of the frame and by using an entirety or a part of the time resources included in the second period, and

the control information includes:

information related to a default position of the frequency resources and a default position of the time resources to be allocated to transmission of each of the plurality of transmission data groups; and

information related to the number of the time resources to be allocated to the transmission of each of the plurality of transmission data groups.

2. A receiving method comprising:

receiving a frame generated by allocating time and frequency resources to a plurality of data transmitted by using an orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing (OFDM) method, where

the received frame includes a first period in which a preamble including control information is transmitted, and a second period in which a plurality of transmission data groups is transmitted, each of the plurality of transmission data groups to be transmitted in the second period being transmitted by using a part of the frequency resources among an entirety of the frequency resources included in the second period of the frame and by using an entirety or a part of the time resources included in the second period;

acquiring the control information from the preamble; and

demodulating at least any one of the plurality of transmission data groups to be transmitted in the second period, based on the control information,

wherein the control information includes:

information related to a default position of the frequency resources and a default position of the time resources to be allocated to transmission of each of the plurality of transmission data groups; and

information related to the number of the time resources to be allocated to the transmission of each of the plurality of transmission data groups.

3. A transmitting apparatus comprising:

frame configuring circuitry, which in operation, generates a frame by allocating time and frequency resources to a plurality of data transmitted by using an orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing (OFDM) method; and

transmitting circuitry, which in operation, transmits the frame,

wherein the frame configuring circuitry configures the frame including a first period in which a preamble including control information is transmitted, and a second period in which a plurality of transmission data groups is transmitted, each of the plurality of transmission data groups to be transmitted in the second period being transmitted by using a part of the frequency resources among an entirety of the frequency resources included in the second period of the frame and by using an entirety or a part of the time resources included in the second period, and

the control information includes:

information related to a default position of the frequency resources and a default position of the time resources to be allocated to transmission of each of the plurality of transmission data groups; and

information related to the number of the time resources to be allocated to the transmission of each of the plurality of transmission data groups.

4. A receiving apparatus comprising:

receiving circuitry, which in operation, receives a frame generated by allocating time and frequency resources to a plurality of data transmitted by using an orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing (OFDM) method, where

the received frame includes a first period in which a preamble including control information is transmitted and a second period in which a plurality of transmission data groups is transmitted, each of the plurality of transmission data groups to be transmitted in the second period being transmitted by using a part of the frequency resources among an entirety of the frequency resources included in the second period of the frame and by using an entirety or a part of the time resources included in the second period;

preamble processing circuitry, which in operation, acquires the control information from the preamble; and

demodulating circuitry, which in operation, demodulates at least any one of the plurality of data transmission data groups to be transmitted in the second period, based on the control information,

wherein the control information includes:

information related to a default position of the frequency resources and a default position of the time resources to be allocated to transmission of each of the plurality of transmission data groups; and

information related to the number of the time resources to be allocated to the transmission of each of the plurality of transmission data groups.
