Smallest Tolerable Average Data Rates 0x11 2 Smallest Tolerable Average Data Rate indicates the smallest average Data rate at which the application is capable of operating. Units in multiples of 10 Kilobits per second (kbps). 0x0000 = 0 Kbps, 0x0001 = 10 Kbps and so on. No Original Average Data Rate 0x12 2 Original Average Data Rate indicates the average data rate at which the application intends to operate when sufficient station and network resources are available. Units in multiples of 10 Kilobits per second (kbps). 0x0000 = 0 Kbps, 0x0001 = 10 Kbps and so on. No Table 79: Additional QoS and MAC Parameter Fields Exchanged between Two CMs QoS and MAC Parameter Field (CM-CM) FID LEN (Octets) Descriptions Reconfigurable Rx Window Size 0x13 2 Receive window size in number of 512-octet segments. 0x0000 = 0 Receive Window Size and so on. No Smoothing Buffer Size 0x14 3 The smoothing buffer size in octets that is required to support the Link at the transmitter and receiver. If this field is not present and smoothing is requested, the default buffer size is chosen to be the product of Delay (in seconds) and Average Data Rate (in bits per second) 0x000000 = 1 octet and so on. No Bidirectional Burst 0x15 1 This parameter shall only be present in QMPs of Local Link that belong to a bidirectional Connection, and whose traffic is intended to be transmitted as part of Reverse SOF of the Bidirectional Bursts initiated by the other Link in the connection. The presence of this indicates that the payload of this Local Link has to be transmitted as part of Reverse SOF of Bidirectional Bursts. A value of 0x00 is used when both links are local links. A value of 0x01 indicates that the Bidirectional Bursts in CFP will always end with a SACK. A value of 0x02 indicates that the Bidirectional Burst in CFP may end with a Reverse SOF. All other values are reserved. No

Yes Minimum Number of PBs per TXOP 0x82 2 The minimum number of 520-octet PHY Blocks per TXOP required for transporting the MSDUs belonging to this Link. 0x0000 = 0, and so on Yes Maximum Number of PBs per TXOP 0x83 2 The maximum number of 520-octet PHY Blocks per TXOP required for transporting the MSDUs belonging to this Link. 0x0000 = 0, and so on Yes PPB_Threshold 0x84 2 The Pending PHY Block (PPB) threshold indicates the threshold of Pending PBs at which the Link requires extra bandwidth to clear the backlog. If there is sufficient bandwidth available, the CCo should provide Extra Allocation when the PPB threshold is exceeded. 0x0000 = 0 PBs and so on Yes Surplus Bandwidth 0x85 2 Surplus Bandwidth (refer to Section 7.8.1.4) No Exception Policy 0x0a 1 0x00 = terminate the Connection. 0x01 = reconfigure the Connection. 0x02 to 0xFF = reserved Yes CDESC 0x0e 13 or 37 Connection Descriptor (refer to Section 7.8.1.1) Yes Vendor Specific 0x86 Var Vendor-Specific QoS and MAC information (refer to Section 7.8.1.1) Yes Smallest Tolerable Average Number of PBs per TXOP 0x87 2 Smallest Tolerable Average Number of PBs per TXOP indicates the smallest average number of PBs per TXOP at which the application is capable of operating. 0x0000 = 0 PBs per TXOP and so on.
