Original Abstract Submitted
an embodiment is method performed by a first beamformee to participate in a channel sounding process. the method includes receiving a null data packet (ndp) announcement frame from a beamformer, wherein the ndp announcement frame includes partial bandwidth information for the first beamformee and partial bandwidth information for a second beamformee, each indicating a same first bandwidth. the method further includes responsive to receiving a beamforming report poll (bfrp) trigger frame from the beamformer, transmitting a first report frame and a second report frame to the beamformer, wherein the first report frame includes a first partial bandwidth change indication bit indicating there is a change in partial bandwidth for the first beamformee and the second report frame includes a second partial bandwidth change indication bit indicating there is a change in partial bandwidth for the second beamformee.
