Hi, Dimitry,
Yes, your understanding on our proposal is correct.
Best regards,

So there is no way for such single-radio EHT STA to initiate channel access on the conditional link only. If there is really a use case with conditional link channel access for a single-radio STA or enhanced version, further discussion is needed. For now, our current framework intentionally avoids it to not complicate things.

>> 1, The main problem for Non-STR AP MLD is to devise a solution such that there won't be a case that a non-STR MLD will transmit and receive at the same time. In terms of the gain, every TXOP, if there is an additional data pipe that could be of use, we think it is better. Similar analogy could be found on the channel puncture schemes.

>> 2, Some companies are interested in Trigger-based access on the conditional link, we have no strong opinion on this. Our proposal works for both DL and UL without the assumption that Triggered channel access is supported. This simply reflects the reality that most STA won’t be able to send Trigger frame for now.

>> 3, There are 3 flavors in Non-STR STA MLD operation with the STR AP MLD discussed in the group, a) PIFS or some variants of PIFS based method, b) Receiver-assisted method using RTS/CTS-style exchange c) Receiver-decided method; in our opinion, at least a) and b) could be suitable for Non-STR AP case.

>>> 1. Per this proposal, legacy STAs (that are more likely to be 5 GHz versus 6 GHz in short run) will be parked in basic links while EHT STAs on the conditional link. Now, assuming the 5 GHz link is more congested, the chances of winning channel access for 5 GHz link may be small. Since you are further constraining yourself to transmit on the conditional link only after winning the channel access on the basic link, this means the performance gain for the EHT STA is pretty limited. Looking at the proposal, I am not sure why this constraint is even needed.
