Abstract

Proposed are a method and device for receiving a PPDU in a wireless LAN system. Specifically, a reception STA receives the PPDU from a transmission STA through a wide band, and decodes the PPDU. The PPDU includes a legacy preamble, and first and second signal fields. The legacy preamble and the first and second signal fields are generated on the basis of a first phase rotation value. When the wide band is the 320 MHz band, the first phase rotation value is [1 −1 −1 −1 1 −1 −1 −1 1 −1 −1 −1 −1 1 1 1].
