[STDS-802-11-TGBN] Regarding SP in 25/1498r1, "UL Transmission in SMD BSS Transition"



Hi all,

I presented my contribution 25/1498r1, "UL Transmission in SMD BSS Transition" on today TGbn (PM2) session.

There are two SPs in the contribution as below.
If you have any questions or comments regarding SP, please let me know.

SP1
Do you agree that the current AP MLD may forward received UL data to the target AP MLD?
•SMD Information element shall provide the capability that the forwarding of UL data from the current AP MLD to the target AP MLD is supported or not.
•The current AP MLD shall provide information about limitations on UL transmission to the non-AP MLD.
•This information is included in ST preparation response.
•One of this information is UL Draining Period duration. Other information is TBD.
•How to decide UL Draining Period duration depends on implementation.
•UL Draining Period starts after the reception of the acknowledgement of the ST execution request.
•The non-AP MLD shall not transmit UL data to the current AP MLD after the UL draining period expires.
•If the target AP MLD rejects the ST execution request, the current AP MLD should pass up UL data to the DS.

SP2
Do you agree that a non-AP MLD may transmit Data frames to the target AP MLD before it receives ST execution response under following conditions?
•The Per-SMD PTK mode is used.
•If the non-AP MLD sends an ST execution request to the target AP MLD and the ST execution request has a request indication for the target AP MLD to receive Data frames before ST execution response.
•The target AP MLD may indicate its capability to buffer Data frames from the non-AP MLD prior to the ST execution request.
•If the non-AP MLD receives ST execution response with the Status Code field set to REJECTED_ST_EXEC, the non-AP MLD should resend UL data to the current AP MLD.
•If SMD has UL data forwarding capability, the target AP MLD may forward UL data to the current AP MLD.

I will request to run SPs after receiving some feedback.

Best regards,
Ryuichi
