A transmission method includes generating a first precoded signal and a second precoded signal by performing a precoding process on a first baseband signal and a second baseband signal, outputting a third signal by inserting a pilot signal into the first precoded signal, outputting a fourth signal by applying a first phase change to the second precoded signal, outputting a fifth signal by inserting a pilot signal into the fourth signal, and outputting a sixth signal by applying a second phase change to the fifth signal.

Embodiments of an access point (AP), station (STA) and method for communication in accordance with frame formats of varying sizes of pilot portions are generally described herein. The AP may transmit, to the STA, a first downlink frame in accordance with a first downlink frame format. The AP may receive, from the STA, a phase noise measurement of the STA. The AP may select, based at least partly on the received phase noise measurement, a downlink frame format to enable a phase noise compensation at the STA. The AP may generate a downlink frame in accordance with the second downlink frame format, and may transmit the second downlink frame to the STA. In some cases, the first and second downlink frame formats may be based on different ratios of pilot portions to data portions.
