IEEE P802.11 Wireless LANs LB 195 Comment Resolution: Annex B Comments Date: 2013-05-05 Author(s): Name Affiliation Address Phone Osama Aboul-Magd Huawei Technologies 303 Terry Fox Drive Ottawa, ONT, Canada K2K-3J1 613-287-1405 3014 270.26 In "TVHT1.3", "CF29" is refered, but it shall be "CF30". Replace ""CF29" by "CF30". Accepted. See changes in <this documnet> 3015 270.36 TVHT shall use TVHT_W and TVHT_2W instead of 20 MHz and 40 MHz respectively. Replace "20 MHz" and "40 MHz" by "TVHT_W" and "TVHT_2W" respectively. Accepted. Seechange in <this document> 3016 270.40 TVHTM8.2 shall be removed. Channel widths wider than TVHT_4W and more than 4 spatial streams are not permitted for STAs operating as TVHT STAs. Remove "TVHTM8.2" row. Accepted. See changes in <this document> 3017 270.44 TVHT shall use TVHT_W and TVHT_2W instead of 20 MHz and 40 MHz respectively. Replace "20 MHz" and "40 MHz" by "TVHT_W" and "TVHT_2W" respectively. Accepted. See changes in <this document> 3018 270.48 TVHTM8.4 shall be removed. Channel widths wider than TVHT_4W and more than 4 spatial streams are not permitted for STAs operating as TVHT STAs. Remove "TVHTM8.4" row. Accepted. See changes in <this document> 3019 271.15 TVHTM14 to TVHT14.3 be removed. Channel widths wider than TVHT_4W and more than 4 spatial streams are not permitted for STAs operating as TVHT STAs. Remove TVHTM14 to TVHT14.3 rows. Accepted. In VHT, Channel is used for 160 MHz channels. Its use in TVHT is not needed. B.4.27 B.4.27 B.4.27
3020 272.04 A PICS table for TVHT PHY Features is missing. Insert new subclause B.4.27.2 "TVHT PHY Features", which is based on B.4.23.2 of IEEE P802.11ac D5.0 with following modifications. (1) Remove VHTP3.4, VHTP3.5, VHTP5.4, VHTP5.5, VHTP8.1.13 to VHTP VHTP8.1.24, VHTP8.2 to VHTP8.2.24 and VHTP8.3 to VHTP8.3.24. (2) Replace "VHT" by "TVHT". (3) Replace reference to clause 22 by reference to clause 23. (4) Replace "CF29" by "CF30". (5) Replace "20 MHz", "40 MHz" and "80MHz" by "TVHT_W", "TVHT_2W" and "TVHT_4W" respectively. (6) Replace "400ns GI" by "Short guard interval" Revised. See TVHT PHY Feature section in <this document> 3021 266.60 B.2.2 Abbreviation definitions of "TVHTM" and "TVHTP" are missing. Insert the following entry in the appropriate place in B.2.2. TVHTM Television very high throughput MAC TVHTP Television very high throughput PHY Revised. See changes in <this document> 3022 267.17 The MAC protocol capabilities PICS needs to be modified, because MAC protocol capabilities which are mandatory or optional for a VHT STA are also mandatory or optional for a TVHT STA. Insert new subclause B.4.4.1 "MAC protocol capabilities", which is based on B.4.4.1 of IEEE P802.11ac D5.0 with following modifications. (1) Add "CF30:M" to Status of PC9.1. (2) Add "CF30:O" to Status of PC9.2. Accepted. 1
