Methods and systems that can enable antenna selection (AS) and data bits in transmitted spatially modulated (SM) streams to be detected at a receiver using different detection methods. In example embodiments, encoding for an AS stream is done separately at a transmitter than encoding for data streams, enabling a receiver to use one type of detection for AS bits and a reduced complexity type of MIMO detection for the data bits.

Proposed are a method and an apparatus for transmitting data in a wireless LAN system. Particularly, an AP transmits a PPDU to one STA. The AP transmits data to the one STA over a first NCCB band or a second NCCB band on the basis of the PPDU. The PPDU includes a first signal field and a second signal field. The first NCCB band is a 40 MHz or 60 MHz band generated by bonding a discontinuous 20 MHz band in an 80 MHz band. The second NCCB band is an 80 MHz, 100 MHz, 120 MHz, or 140 MHz band generated by bonding a discontinuous 20 MHz band in a 160 MHz band. The first signal field includes first information and second information. The first information is NCCB indication information on whether or not an NCCB can be performed. The second information is NCCB bandwidth information for a band to be used for transmitting the PPDU from the first NCCB band and the second NCCB band.

Systems and methods for signaling a pattern of cyclic shifts and orthogonal cover codes for use by a wireless device in multi-layer transmissions are presented. In one exemplary embodiment, a method includes receiving a signal that includes B bits for identifying a reference signal. Each of several available reference signals are defined by a cyclic shift and an orthogonal cover code. Further, the method includes using the B bits to identify the cyclic shift and orthogonal cover code according to pre-determined tables that map each value of the B bits to a pattern of cyclic shift and orthogonal cover code combinations for a multi-layer transmission scheme. The patterns for the multi-layer transmission scheme include first and second patterns based on the same cyclic shifts, but where some, but not all, of the cyclic shifts in the first pattern are associated with the same corresponding orthogonal cover codes in the second pattern. In addition, the method includes transmitting each of the one or more spatially multiplexed data streams using a corresponding reference signal for each data stream.
