A method of transmitting a data frame in a wireless local area network (WLAN) is provided. The method includes transmitting, by an access point (AP), a scheduling information element including information on a time period for data frame transmission to a first station (STA) and a second STA, wherein the scheduling information element includes an offset field indicating a start time point of the time period and transmitting, by the AP, the data frame to the first STA and the second STA by using a multi user-multiple input multiple output (MU-MIMO) transmission scheme after the start time point indicated by the offset field.
