This disclosure describes methods, apparatus, and systems related to a high efficiency signal field load balancing system. A device may determine one or more high efficiency signal fields of a high efficiency preamble, wherein at least one of the one or more high efficiency signal fields includes at least in part a common field and one or more user specific fields. The device may determine a resource allocation index associated with the one or more user specific fields. The device may determine a partition of the one or more user specific fields between a first subfield of the at least one of the one or more high efficiency signal fields and a second subfield of the at least one of the one or more high efficiency signal fields based at least in part on the resource allocation index. The device may cause the one or more high efficiency signal fields to be wirelessly transmitted to one or more devices over a wireless communication channel.
