Carlos, Good point, and my bad (having working through this in TGad!). Should be “multi-band”. I guess the full term is “multi-band AP device”? “multi-band device AP”? (The latter feels awkward; the former is potentially confusing and leads to use of “multi-band AP” again…) Mark P.S., a nit, but a STA has a single MAC. It has only one PHY interface. But, it may share that PHY with other STAs. (See 4.9.3.) We worked through that one in TGad, painfully, also… So, here we are again (with the non-AP STA having more than one PHY, and maybe a (vestigial) MAC) - Ugh! From: Cordeiro, Carlos [mailto:carlos.cordeiro@xxxxxxxxx] Hi Mark, Is there any reason for introducing the term “dual-band”? Back in the 11ad/11mc days, we had quite a bit of discussion on the use of such terms. We avoided using terms like “dual-band”, but instead decided to use “multi-band”. Architecturally, a STA has a single MAC and PHY entities. To refer to any box that has more than a single MAC and PHY entity, the 802.11 standard uses the term “multi-band device” (several occurrences of this term in 802.11-2016). Thanks, Carlos. From: *** 802.11 TGba - WUR- Wake-up Radio Operation *** [mailto:STDS-802-11-TGBA@xxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Mark Hamilton All, (CC: TGba, just FYI, for those who have undying interest…) I have uploaded updates to my discussion documents with proposed architecture (reference models) for WUR-capable AP and non-AP STAs, and the state machine view of WUR operation. I think I captured the comments made on the last ARC teleconference. And, these are now pasted as embedded Visio objects within a Word file, so hopefully they will upload and download correctly. These can be found here:
We (the ARC SC) can review these at the F2F in July (San Diego), and decide what to present/discuss with TGba in our joint session on Thursday PM2.
