Abstract

A method and device for transmitting an NGV frame in a wireless LAN system is proposed. Specifically, a transmission device generates an NGV frame and transmits the NGV frame through a first band. The NGV frame includes an L-STF, an L-LTF, an L-SIG, an NGV-SIG, an NGV-STF, an NGV-LTF, and NGV-Data. The L-STF, the L-LTF, the L-SIG, and the NGV-SIG are duplicated in units of second bands and transmitted through the first band. The NGV-STF, the NGV-LTF, and the NGV-Data are transmitted through a full band of the first band. The first band is a 20 MHz band, and a second band is a 10 MHz band.
