Abstract

A receiving device is disclosed that receives a non-EHT PPDU that includes a service field and that is sent by a sending device, where the service field includes a first field whose bit quantity is m, and m≥1; and the receiving device determines, based on the first field, an initialization state of a scrambling code sequence corresponding to an extremely-high throughput physical layer protocol data unit EHT PPDU, where a bit quantity of the initialization state of the scrambling code sequence is greater than the bit quantity of the first field.

Claims (37)

1 . A method for determining an initialization state of a scrambling code sequence, comprising:

receiving, by a receiving device, a non-extremely-high throughput physical layer protocol data unit (non-EHT PPDU) from a sending device, wherein the non-EHT PPDU comprises a service field, the service field comprises a first field, a bit quantity of the first field is m, and m>1; and

determining, by the receiving device, the initialization state of a scrambling code sequence corresponding to an extremely-high throughput physical layer protocol data unit (EHT PPDU) based on the first field, wherein a bit quantity of the initialization state of the scrambling code sequence is greater than the bit quantity of the first field.

2 . The method according to claim 1 , wherein determining the initialization state of the scrambling code sequence comprises:

obtaining, by the receiving device, a second field, wherein a bit quantity of the second field is a difference between the bit quantity of the initialization state of the scrambling code sequence and the bit quantity of the first field; and

determining, by the receiving device, the initialization state of the scrambling code sequence corresponding to the EHT PPDU based on the first field and the second field.

3 . The method according to claim 1 , wherein the method further comprises:

determining, by the receiving device, the scrambling code sequence based on the initialization state of the scrambling code sequence;

performing, by the receiving device, scrambling processing based on the scrambling code sequence to generate the EHT PPDU; and

sending, by the receiving device, the EHT PPDU.

4 . The method according to claim 1 , wherein the first field is a 1 st bit to an m th bit of the service field.

5 . The method according to claim 2 , wherein the second field is preconfigured.

6 . The method according to claim 2 , wherein the bit quantity of the initialization state of the scrambling code sequence is n, and the second field is an (m+1) th bit to an n th bit of the service field.

7 . The method according to claim 2 , wherein the second field is carried in the non-EHT PPDU.

8 . The method according to claim 7 , wherein the second field is carried in one or more of the following information of the non-EHT PPDU: a preamble, a media access control (MAC) frame, or a trigger frame.

9 . The method according to claim 2 , wherein the bit quantity of the initialization state of the scrambling code sequence is n, and the second field is n−m bits in m bits of the first field, wherein m≥n−m.

10 . The method according to claim 1 , wherein the bit quantity of the first field is 7.

11 . The method according to claim 1 , wherein the bit quantity of the initialization state of the scrambling code sequence is 11.

12 . A communication apparatus comprising:

a processing device and executable instructions wherein the processing device is configured to execute the executable instructions, and in response to the processing device executing the instructions, the processing device performs operations comprising:

receiving a non-extremely-high throughput physical layer protocol data unit (non-EHT PPDU) from a sending device, wherein the non-EHT PPDU comprises a service field, the service field comprises a first field, a bit quantity of the first field is m, and m≥1; and

determining an initialization state of a scrambling code sequence corresponding to an extremely-high throughput physical layer protocol data unit (EHT PPDU) based on the first field, wherein a bit quantity of the initialization state of the scrambling code sequence is greater than the bit quantity of the first field.

13 . The communication apparatus according to claim 12 , wherein the operations further include:

obtaining a second field, wherein a bit quantity of the second field is a difference between the bit quantity of the initialization state of the scrambling code sequence and the bit quantity of the first field; and

determining the initialization state of the scrambling code sequence corresponding to the EHT PPDU based on the first field and the second field.

14 . The communication apparatus according to claim 12 , the operations further include:

determining the scrambling code sequence based on the initialization state of the scrambling code sequence;

performing scrambling processing based on the scrambling code sequence to generate the EHT PPDU; and

sending the EHT PPDU.

15 . The communication apparatus according to claim 12 , wherein the first field is a 1 st bit to an m th bit of the service field.

16 . The communication apparatus according to claim 13 , wherein the second field is preconfigured.

17 . The communication apparatus according to claim 13 , wherein the bit quantity of the initialization state of the scrambling code sequence is n, and the second field is an (m+1) th bit to an n th bit of the service field.

18 . The communication apparatus according to claim 13 , wherein the second field is carried in the non-EHT PPDU.

19 . The communication apparatus according to claim 13 , wherein the bit quantity of the initialization state of the scrambling code sequence is n, and the second field is n−m bits in m bits of the first field, wherein m≥n−m.

20 . A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium, wherein the non-transitory computer-readable storage medium stores executable instructions, and in response to the executable instructions being executed by a processing device, the processing device performs operations comprising:

receiving a non-extremely-high throughput physical layer protocol data unit (non-EHT PPDU) from a sending device, wherein the non-EHT PPDU comprises a service field, the service field comprises a first field, a bit quantity of the first field is m, and m≥1; and

determining an initialization state of a scrambling code sequence corresponding to an extremely-high throughput physical layer protocol data unit (EHT PPDU) based on the first field, wherein a bit quantity of the initialization state of the scrambling code sequence is greater than the bit quantity of the first field.
