receiving—by the receiver a Block Acknowledgement Request (BAR) frame in the data transmission from the transmitter;
determining by the receiver an overall size of a bitmap for the BA frame from the BAR frame configured to acknowledge the data transmission;
configuring by the receiver the BA frame of the response to include the bitmap having the determined overall size;
transmitting by the receiver the configured BA frame to the transmitter,
wherein the bitmap of the BA frame includes bits representing reception results of packets of the data transmission received from the transmitter.
