Abstract

Provided are a system and method of transmitting an Aggregated Media Access Control (MAC) Protocol Data Unit (A-MPDU) in a Wireless Local Area Network (WLAN) system. A MAC layer divides service data transferred from an upper layer into a plurality of MPDUs, forms a single transmission frame including the sequentially arranged MPDUs, delimiter information for distinguishing each of the MPDUs, and ACK request information for requesting for a reception result of the MPDUs, and transmits the formed transmission frame to a recipient. Accordingly, service coverage is extended, and a transmission delay is minimized, resulting in improved service efficiency.
