[STDS-802-11-TGBE] CID 11697 (Punctured channel indication)



Hi, Oded,

 

Regarding CID 11697 in 11-22/1101r1, your proposed resolution results in the following change at D2.1.1 P719L25:

The following punctured patterns are defined for an 80 MHz frequency subblock: 1111, 0111, 1011, 1101, 1110, 0011, 1100, and 1001. The puncturing pattern may vary for different 80 MHz frequency subblocks. In these patterns a “1” denotes a nonpunctured 20 MHz subchannel and a “0” denotes a punctured 20 MHz subchannel. The 4-bit bitmap is indexed by the 20 MHz subchannels in ascending order with the MSB indicating the lowest frequency 20 MHz subchannel.

 

But 11be D2.1.1 P661L25 states

B3–B6 is a 4-bit bitmap that indicates which 20 MHz subchannel is punctured in the 80 MHz frequency subblock where U-SIG processing is performed. The 4-bit bitmap is indexed by the 20 MHz subchannels in ascending order with B3 indicating the lowest frequency 20 MHz subchannel.

 

This is quite confusing as one explanation uses LSB as the lowest frequency, while your new explanation uses MSB as the lowest frequency.

 

Hence, I suggest to modify the resolution to CID 11697 as follows:

REVISED

 

Add the following sentence at the end of the paragraph ending at P719L25:

“See the Punctured Channel Information field in Table 36-28 for definition of these 4-bit patterns.”

 

Thanks.

Youhan
