Hi Chunyu,
I agree with Jarkko that additional discussion is needed for the usage of the Quiet element.
If I understand well, the interest of the usage of the quiet element for low latency, is to quiet all stations, especially legacy stations.
However, some limitations exit on the usage of the quiet element that make it interesting only for few cases for low latency.
For instance, only 160MHz BSS bandwidth supports this feature.
11.8.3 Quieting channels for testing
[…]
A non-VHT AP shall not transmit a Quiet Channel element. An AP shall not transmit a Quiet Channel element
with the AP Quiet Mode field value equal to 0 in frames that do not include at least one Quiet element. An AP
shall not transmit more than one Quiet Channel element with the AP Quiet Mode field equal to 0.
An AP shall
not transmit a Quiet Channel element if the BSS bandwidth is neither 160 MHz nor
80+80 MHz.
This implies that even if we modify the rules for 11be, legacy stations may not support it for other bandwidths than 160MHz.
So additional mechanism will be required to solve same issue on other bandwidths.
As I mentioned during your presentation, I agree on the direction, but I think more discussions are needed.
I have a document on the server (1843r1) that can provide a mechanism fully compatible
with your proposal dealing with same issue.
Best regards.
Stéphane.

Subject: [STDS-802-11-TGBE] Question on Quiet element / 1046r10
Hi Chunyu and all,
There was a long queue of questions to 1046r10 and I was not able to ask my question.
I am wondering how to use Quiet element to protect real time traffic.
Quiet element was designed to measure channel especially in DFS channels to detect radars.
The Quiet Period is given in units of Beacon periods. Low latency traffic likely transmits more often than once per Beacon period.
I am wondering how you are planning to use the Quiet elements to protect the low latency traffic? Are you planning to include multiple Quiet elements to Beacon or just protect all time for restricted TWT?
Cheers,
Jarkko
