MUMBAI, India, June 24 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202647070133 A) filed by Qualcomm Incorporated on June 04, 2026, for Signaling Designs For Unequal Modulation And Modulation And Coding Scheme (mcs) Indication.
Inventors include Chen, Jialing Li; Vermani, Sameer; and Tian, Bin.
The application for the patent was published on June 12, 2026, under issue no. 24/2026.
Abstract: This disclosure provides methods, components, devices and systems for signaling designs for unequal modulation and modulation and coding scheme (MCS) indication. Some aspects more specifically relate to user info field designs to support such an unequal modulation indication and/or an MCS indication, including designs for user info fields of multi-user (MU) physical layer (PHY) protocol data units (PPDUs) and of Trigger frames. In some examples, an access point (AP) may configure a user info field to include at least five bits for MCS signaling, which may enable the AP to uniquely identify an MCS from a set of greater than 16 MCSs. Additionally, or alternatively, the AP may configure a user info field to include a subfield indicative of a pattern of modulation schemes (such as an equal modulation or an unequal modulation) across a set of spatial streams allocated for communication between the AP and a station (STA).
