Abstract

A transmit end sends a physical layer protocol data unit (PPDU) to a receive end, where a bandwidth of the PPDU is P×10 MHz. The PPDU includes a first part of fields and a second part of fields. A quantity of tones per 10-MHz tone distribution corresponding to the first part of fields is 64, and a tone spacing is 156.25 kHz. A quantity of tones per 10-MHz tone distribution corresponding to the second part of fields is 128, and a tone spacing is 78.125 kHz. The corresponding method is applicable to 10 MHz, 20 MHz, 40 MHz, 60 MHz, so that a transmission bandwidth is increased compared with that of 802.11p, as well as a system throughput. The transmit end may transmit data by some RUs to increase a data transmission distance, or may simultaneously transmit data of different services by a plurality of RUs to improve data transmission efficiency.
