1. A non-transitory computer-readable medium comprising computer-executable instructions stored therein for performing a method of communicating data from an end station receiving a data input comprising: adding logical link control (LLC) data to the data input to form a LLC frame using a LLC layer operating on the end station; adding media access control (MAC) data to the LLC frame to form a MAC frame using a MAC layer operating on the end stations; adding convergence data to the MAC frame to form a convergence frame using a convergence layer operating on the end station; adding physical (PHY) data to the convergence frame to form a PHY frame using a PHY layer operating on the end station; configuring the MAC data as one-dimensional data sufficient to indicate a start time and a duration of the MAC frame, the start time indicating a desired time to begin transmitting the MAC frame and the duration indicating a length of time needed to transmit the MAC frame; and configuring the convergence data as two-dimensional data sufficient to translate the one-dimensional start time and duration of the MAC frame to frequency and time coordinates of a two-dimensional MAP used by the convergence layer to indicate start time, start frequency, duration according to a number of sub-frames and bandwidth according to number of sub-channels of the convergence frame.
