Hi all,
Thank you very much for providing your valuable comments during my presentation on the Aug. 26 teleconference. I apologize for the delay in our offline discussion.
In this contribution, we pointed out that “TDLS direct link is set up between two non-AP MLDs that have performed ML setup with the same AP MLD.” which does not apply to Roaming in 11bn.
Therefore, we may consider updates to the TDLS procedure for UHR in the following two aspects:
Proposal 1: TDLS rules update
- To set up and maintain a TDLS direct link, both TDLS peer non-AP MLDs shall be associated with the AP MLDs within the same SMD.
- It means that, if a non-AP MLD’s and its peer’s AP MLDs are with the same SMD, their TDLS direct link can be maintained while roaming within the SMD.
Proposal 2: TDLS direct link setup signaling update (i.e., add SMD-related info into the existing signaling and procedure)
Before going to the detailed TDLS procedure updates based on the UHR Roaming (as presented in my slides), I would like to get more feedback from you experts about this direction.
Please feel free to provide further comments. Thanks.
