Abstract
This disclosure provides methods and apparatuses related to beam training for performing beamforming in wireless communications. In an implementation, an access point (AP) sends training configuration information to a plurality of stations, wherein the training configuration information comprises a first antenna configuration indicating a plurality of first uplink beams corresponding to the plurality of stations. The AP receives a plurality of training frame sent by each of the plurality of stations by using a corresponding second uplink beam and determines, based on the plurality of training frames sent by the plurality of stations, a plurality of third uplink beams for the plurality of stations to send uplink data.
