The 11mc BRC discussed the resolution to CID 6302 yesterday, and felt

the wider group's input should be sought on the following point.

2227.9 reads (there is similar text at 2281.30):

CCA shall report busy at least

while a high rate PPDU with energy above the ED threshold is being received at the antenna.

The comment was to ask where else a PPDU could be received, and the

change proposed by the commenter was to delete "at the antenna".

However, discussion in the BRC suggested that maybe "at the antenna"

was intended to refer to where the energy thresholding was performed.

There was further discussion of whether this threshold was w.r.t.

the energy at the antenna or rather at the antenna connector (since

in general 802.11 talks of things at the latter).

The question to the group is therefore: was the intent of the above

to say:

CCA shall report busy at least

while a high rate PPDU with energy at the antenna above the ED threshold is being received.

or:

CCA shall report busy at least

while a high rate PPDU with energy at the antenna connector above the ED threshold is being received.
