Abstract

According to embodiments, methods, devices and systems can include generating packet data for a narrow band packet. Transmitting first preamble data across a first channel followed by the narrow band packet with a second preamble across at least one resource unit (RU). The RU can have a smaller bandwidth than the first channel and occupy a portion of the first channel. The first preamble can be configured to enable detection of a packet transmitted in the first channel, and the second preamble is configured to enable detection of a packet transmitted in the RU without the first preamble.
