Hi Rui,

Thanks for your comments.

I add the responses inline.

I hope that it can be helpful to resolve your questions.

Hi Dongguk,

Thank you for proposing those motions. I have a few questions about these Motions. I was not able to attend the meeting when you presented 11-21/1015r2. I would apologize if they have been answered during the meeting.

Regarding Motion 1:

1) Is this motion for trigger or non-trigger based operation or both?

[Dongguk Lim] It can be applied to both cases.

2) In the Note of this motion, you have “This procedure can be applied to pre-HE STAs (i.e. not limited to HE/EHT STAs)”. Is your intention to reuse the NDPA frame and NDP for pre-HE STAs in the proposed measurement procedure? Also, since there is no NDPA frame defined in 11n, how this procedure can be achieved?

[Dongguk Lim] Yes, I consider the reuse of NDPA and NDP procedure. as you mentioned, the NDPA frame is not defined in 11n, but a similar PPDU was defined in 11n. This PPDU to solicit the NDP frame includes the NDP announcement subfield. please refer to the below definition and the clause 10.36 Null data PPDU (NDP) sounding in 11REVme. regarding this issue, we can further discuss in later because the detail of NDPA is not decided yet.

3) Could you explain what “validate the STA(s) participation” in the last sub-bullet means? In other words, what needs to be validated?

[Dongguk Lim] Since we can’t know exactly the STA(s) status that participates in the sensing measurement, it may need to check whether the STA(s) can participate or not. for example, even though the STA completes the sensing negotiation, it can be assume that the STA cannot participate in sensing due to interference or channel conditions.

Regarding Motion 2:

4) Can transmission of NDP from HE STAs be triggered? I believe there is not such a triggering procedure in the 11ax standard.

[Dongguk Lim] We consider the reuse of 11az in 11bf and this procedure that NDP is solicited by trigger frame is defined in 11az. so, I think that if HE STAs supports the 11az procedure, those STAs can use this procedure.

5) The procedure proposed in this motion is similar to implicit sounding, which is not covered in your contribution (11-21/1015r2). Could you confirm?

[Dongguk Lim] you are right. Actually, it is not included in the contents of my original slides. but, when I presented my slides, it was discussed. so, I modified my SP related to this motion based on the comment received when I presented and an offline discussion.

Best regards,

Ray

Hi Solomon,

Thanks for your suggestion.

It looks good to me.

I'll modify the motion text as per your suggestion to remove the unclear things

best regards,

Dongguk

Hi Dongguk,

I suggest modifying as follows

• The transmitter(s) shall transmit an NDP SIFS after receiving the Trigger frame.

otherwise, the difference between NDPA and TF flows is unclear

Hi Tony,

I’d like to run the two motions based on the passed SPs( SP#2(Results: 28Y/1N/9A) and SP#3(Results: 29Y/0N/7A)) in 11-21/1015r2

Please add the following Two motions to the TBbf agenda

Motion 1

• Move to add the following to 11bf SFD:

– 11bf supports an NDPA/NDP-based measurement procedure in which:

• The measurement is initiated by an NDP Announcement frame.

• The transmitter shall transmit an NDP SIFS after the NDP Announcement frame.

• The detailed definition of the NDP Announcement frame is TBD.

• The process to validate the STA(s) participation is TBD

– Note : This procedure can be applied to pre-HE STAs (i.e. not limited to HE/EHT STAs)

Motion 2

• Move to add the following to 11bf SFD

– 11bf supports an Trigger/NDP-based measurement procedure in which:

• A Trigger frame is used to solicit the NDP transmission(s).

• The transmitter(s) shall transmit an NDP SIFS after the Trigger frame.

• The detailed definition of the Trigger frame is TBD.

– Note : This procedure is for HE/EHT STAs. Supporting other STAs are TBD.

best regards,

Dongguk.
