Hi Vishnu,
Thank you for reviewing the document and for the offline discussions.
I will incorporate the editorial change in the next revision. Thank you for pointing it out.
Regarding initiation of the frame exchange sequence, I think the current statement does imply that AP should not initiate frame exchanges either (in addition to ending it).
However, if you think that it needs to be explicitly called out, I can revise the statement.
About the second point, as I mentioned in our offline discussions, a non-AP MLD must have the flexibility to decide which link to receive the Beacons on. Moreover, it cannot
be assumed that the non-AP MLD listens to the Beacons on the same EMLSR link each time. The proposed text in document 1706r1 provides a recommendation to the AP to avoid overlaps b/w frame exchanges and group addressed frames on two EMLSR links. If the AP
MLD does initiate frame exchanges, then it also provides flexibility to the non-AP MLD to not respond to the initial Control frame. Therefore, the problem you mentioned in your example will not occur.
Thanks,
Gaurang

Thanks Gaurang for the draft, discussions and for incorporating some of my offline comments. I still have few more comments (some of which we discussed about before but I want
to include here for others’ consideration as well):
-
Minor grammatical correction: “An AP affiliated with the AP MLD should end frame exchanges initiated with a STA affiliated with the non-AP MLD in one of the EMLSR links at least
an EMLSR transition delay, indicated in the EMLSR Transition Delay subfield,
before another AP …”
-
Your text seems to have rules on termination of frame exchanges by AP but not on the start of a frame exchange. Why not also have additional text of the form: “An AP affiliated with an AP MLD shall not initiate a frame exchange with an STA of a non-AP MLD
in one of the EMLSR links if:
-
Either the frame exchange duration is expected to overlap with group-addressed frame transmissions on another EMLSR enabled link or the frame exchange duration is separated from group-addressed frame transmission on another EMLSR enabled link by less than
an EMLSR transition delay
-
and the STA affiliated with the non-AP MLD in the other EMLSR link is expected to receive those group addressed frames”.
I remember you had some text for start time before. Any reason it was removed?
- According to your current text, a frame exchange between an AP and a nonAP EMLSR STA will not be feasible if it overlaps
with a TBTT on any of the other EMLSR enabled links of the nonAP MLD. Considering a 100ms beacon rate and 3 EMLSR links, this can be very inefficient since many potential TXOPs can be lost, as illustrated in red in the figure below. In particular, a nonAP
MLD may decode just one beacon every listen interval (shown in green in the Figure) so preventing TXOP overlap with all TBTTs on all links can be an overkill. Some better mechanism may be required to improve channel access opportunities of EMLSR, especially
considering a nonAP MLD doesn’t decode all beacons. One possible option can be that an EMLSR nonAP MLD elects a primary link to receive group-addressed frames on. There needs to be defined a mechanism for the EMLSR client to inform the AP about the same and
correspondingly the AP operation would be to avoid TXOP overlap with only group addressed frames on this primary link. I bring this up because this is inherently tied to the resolution of this comment CC6946.
Regards,
Vishnu
