Interpretation of a Motion to Adopt

A motion to approve this submission means that the editing instructions and any changed or added material are actioned in the TGah Draft. This introduction is not part of the adopted material.

Editing instructions formatted like this are intended to be copied into the TGah Draft (i.e. they are instructions to the 802.11 editor on how to merge the text with the baseline documents).

TGah Editor: Editing instructions preceded by “TGah Editor” are instructions to the TGah editor to modify existing material in the TGah draft. As a result of adopting the changes, the TGah editor will execute the instructions rather than copy them to the TGah Draft.

CID / P.L / Clause / Comment / Proposed Change / Resolution
1507 / 179.44 / 9.26.1 / The sentence "The normative behavior of the RD protocol defined in this subclause applies to both types of STAs." is not correct. Given that S1G is added to the list of STAs that support RD then it should be to the three types of STAs. In addition it seems redundant because it is specified in the previous sentence which types of STAs may support RD. / Remove "The normative behavior of the RD protocol defined in this subclause applies to both types of STAs." / Revised –
TGah editor to make changes shown in 11-13-1433-00-00ah under the heading for CIDs 1507, and 2084.
2084 / 201.44 / 9.26.1 / Typo: we define 3 types and then refer to "both types". / "all three types". / Revised –
TGah editor to make changes shown in 11-13-1433-00-00ah under the heading for CIDs 1507, and 2084.

Discussion: Agre in principle with both commenters. Proposed resolution is to remove the sentence in discussion as it is redundant.

9.26   Reverse Direction Protocol

9.26.1   General

Change the first paragraph of the subclause as follows:

The RD protocol may be supported by an HT STA, S1G STA, and by a DMG STA. The normative behavior of the RD protocol defined in this subclause applies to both types of STAs. For an HT and S1G STA, the RDG/More PPDU subfield and the AC Constraint subfield are present in the HTC field, and for a DMG STA, the RDG/More PPDU subfield and the AC Constraint subfield are present in the QoS Control field.
