1. A method performed, by a station (STA) apparatus, based on multi-user (MU) transmission in a wireless communication system, the method comprising:

receiving, from another STA, a physical protocol data unit (PPDU) including (i) a preamble field including information for decoding a data field and (ii) the data field; and

decoding the data field based on the information for decoding the data field,

wherein the preamble field includes one or more long training field (LTF) fields generated based on a LTF sequence,

wherein the LTF sequence is generated based on (i) a common sequence and (ii) a predefined matrix that is a matrix of M rows and M columns (M=natural number) having orthogonality between each of rows,

based on a length of the common sequence being not divisible by M:

wherein elements included in a first part of the common sequence whose length is an integer multiple of M is multiplied by elements included in a specific row of the predefined matrix per a length M,

wherein a second part of the common sequence whose length is (i) a total length of the common sequence minus the length of the first part of the common sequence and (ii) shorter than M is multiplied by a part of the elements (i) included in the specific row of the predefined matrix and (ii) whose length is same with the length of the second part of the common sequence,

wherein the part of the elements included in the specific row of the predefined matrix is at least one element related to the length of the second part of the common sequence from a front of the elements included in the specific row of the predefined matrix, and

wherein the LTE sequence comprises (i) the multiplied first part of the common sequence and (ii) the multiplied second part of the common sequence which is located after the multiplied first part of the common sequence.
