9. A transmitter in a wireless local area network (WLAN), the transmitter comprising:
a transceiver; and
a processor configured to:
set a second parameter in a second frame based on a first puncturing pattern indicated by a first parameter in a first frame for a basic service set (BSS) set up by an extreme high throughput (EHT) access point (AP); and
control the transceiver to transmit, to a receiver, the second frame,
wherein the first puncturing pattern is one of a plurality of pre-determined puncturing patterns indicated by a third parameter in a third frame,
wherein the plurality of the pre-determined puncturing patterns includes a plurality of non-orthogonal frequency division multiplexing access (non-OFDMA) puncturing patterns, and
wherein a type of the third frame includes EHT multi-user (MU) PPDU frame, and
wherein the third parameter includes punctured channel information included in a universal signal (U-SIG) field in the third frame,
wherein the first puncturing pattern is most recently exchanged puncturing pattern.
