16. An apparatus used on a station side, wherein the apparatus comprises a transceiver and a processor;
the transceiver is configured to cooperate with the processor to receive a first frame sent by an access point (AP), wherein the first frame comprises P station information fields, each of the P station information fields corresponds to one resource unit (RU) allocated to a first station (STA), P is a positive integer greater than 1, each station information field further comprises end indication information, and the end indication information indicates whether the station information field is the last station information field in the P station information fields; and
the processor is configured to receive or send data information based on P allocated RUs, wherein before receiving the first frame, the processor is configured to implement the following:
receiving, from the AP, a request frame, to request information of a quantity of RUs that are simultaneously supported by the first STA for transmission, so that the AP determines the P allocated RUs and a type of each RU for the first STA based on the number of RUs and a service volume to be transmitted by the first STA.
