| 1. A method for wirelessly communicating a packet over a wideband communication channel comprising a plurality of orthogonal
frequency division multiplexed (OFDM) channels, the method comprising communicating:
a channelization field on a single OFDM channel identifying which of the OFDM channels that are used for communicating subsequent
wideband fields of the packet; and
a wideband-header field on each of the identified OFDM channels to identify sub-fields present in the wideband-header field
and the presence of a wideband-data field following the wideband-header field,
wherein the OFDM channels that comprise the wideband channel are separated in frequency from each other.
