26.3.1

Need a mechanism to allow the transmitter of fragments to re-partition an MSDU for which some fragments have been transmitted. This requires a fragment flush command

Add a mechanism to allow the transmitter of fragments to re-partition an MSDU by creating the ability to signal a fragment flush command to its recipient STA. See 11-18-0218

26.5.4.1

A HE STA may have two possible ways to access to the media: regular EDCA and UORA. Each access needs to maintain its own access parameters, which causes complexity in STA and AP, and extra overhead via transmitting those parameters over the air. In addition, it may cause the fairness concern between the legacy STA and the HE STA as the HE STA has more chance to access to the media. Those two different sets of access parameters are not necessary and can be combined into one set. No matter EDCA or UORA should be able to use the same set parameters to access to the media. Suggeset to use one set of access parameters for channel access.

26.5.4.5

In clause 26.5.4.1, it indicates that "An AP that transmits a Trigger frame that is not a Basic Trigger frame, BQRP Trigger frame or BSRP Trigger frame shall not set the AID12 subfield of any User Info field of the frame to 0 or 2045." In other word, the AP can transmit thoss frames with AID12 = 2045.This conflicts with "an HE AP will not transmit a BQRP or BSRP trigger frame to unassociated non-AP STAs".

1) change the setence in clause 26.5.4.1 to :"An AP that transmits a Basic Trigger frame may set the AID12 subfield of any User Info field of the frame to 2045. An AP that transmits a Trigger frame that is not a Basic Trigger frame, BQRP Trigger frame or BSRP Trigger frame shall not set the AID12 subfield of any User Info field of the frame to 0."2) Delete the sentence "an HE AP will not transmit a BQRP or BSRP trigger frame to unassociated non-AP STAs".

Please clarify the "non-AP STA" means un-associated STA or not in the sentence"A non-AP STA shall include at most one Management frame in S-MPDU format when it transmits an HE TB PPDU in response to a Trigger frame sent by an AP to which the non-AP STA is not associated."If yes, suggest to change wording to"A un-associated non-AP STA shall include at most one Management frame in S-MPDU format in the response HE TB PPDU."

It would be good to have some way to disable EDCA access by Tgax devices in the 6GHz band to allow most efficient use of this new spectrum as new 802.11 amendments are created.

Add a signaling mechanism that allows future devices to disable EDCA in TGax devices operating in channels in 6GHz, that is, those channels that are referenced to a channel starting frequency of 5.940 Ghz as indicated in the tables in Annex E

REJECTED (EDITOR: 2019-11-15 04:00:00Z) - The task group could not reach consensus on any change to the current text that would satisfy this comment.

26.17.2.2

It appears that Beacons may be transmitted in non-HT duplicate PPDU to aid SST operation, but this is not mentioned anywhere in the section. It will be good to clarify the usage for Beacon transmission in non-HT duplicate PPDU.

Add a NOTE to to clarify the usage for Beacon transmission in non-HT duplicate PPDU.

26.17.2.2

All the arguments for allowing Beacon transmissions in non-HT duplicate PPDU would also be valid in the 5 GHz band so why is there restriction for Beacon transmissions in non-HT duplicate PPDU in the 5 GHz band?

Clarify why is there restriction for Beacon transmissions in non-HT duplicate PPDU in the 5 GHz band, else allow Beacon transmissions in non-HT duplicate PPDU in the 5 GHz band as well.

27.3.10.8.5

N_SR is 28 for HE-SIG-B from the equation notation using Kshift(i_bw). Suggest keeping the same practice as HE-SIG-A (collectively Pre-HT modulated fields) to write out the number 28 in the equation instead of pointing to Table 21-5.

Change N_SR to 28 if agreed.

Cannot find the notation T_HE-SIG-B in the equation above.

Remove the line or fix the equation.

27.3.10.8.5

Follow up on CID 21408. Do not agree with the disposition "Without the word duplicated, it is not clear that how content channel is allocated to different 20MHz channels, split, duplicate?" A content channel is not allocated to different 20 MHz channels. Instead, a content channel contains RU Allocation that may cover more than one 20 MHz channels according to Table 27-24. In Line 33 of Page 580, the original text is "... each of which is duplicated once as shown in Figure 27-30 (...)." Here is the suggested wording for reconsideration, "... each of which is repeated as shown in 27-30 (.....) to illustrate its usage of each 20 MHz channel." The suggested wording is applicable to the 160 MHz PPDU.

Please update if agreed, or discuss further offline before the final wording. "DUP" and the captions in the figures may need to change as well when agreed.

E.1 Country information and operating classes

The NPRM was issued by FCC in October 2018, and it proposed to define four U-NIIs in this band. At the same time regulation for use of 6GHz is still under discussion in regulatory athrities, and nothing is decided yet. During the IEEE 802.11 meeting in July 2019, there was dicusion about channelization in this band based on a contribution (19/1199r1), and there were oponions that channelization should be determined after final dicision comes out.The current frequency index was added in D2.3 after 2018 March meeting and does not reflect the latest available information (e.g. NPRM). If It should be alligned with opinions to wait final decision of regulatory authorities (e.g. US R&O), the current frequency index is not useful becasue nothing is decided yet.Frequency index should be blank until final decision comes out, or reflect the latest available information.

Remove contents in column "Channel center frequency index".
