ABSTRACT:
A plurality of data packets that contain sequence numbers, respectively, are transmitted simultaneously between two STAs by using a wireless channel and MIMO. An STA receiving the plurality of data packets transmitted simultaneously by using MIMO generates a single ACK packet containing information that corresponds to a sequence number of each data packet successfully received, and transmits the single ACK packet to a transmit-side STA without using MIMO. Thus, a ratio of successful ACK packet receptions to total receptions can be increased. An effect of improving throughput achieved by simultaneous transmission can also be ensured.
