[STDS-802-11] DMG - Minimum antenna gain requirement for quasi-omni antenna



--- This message came from the IEEE 802.11 Working Group Reflector ---
Hello.

This is a courtesy notice that TGmf has marked the following CID 346 as Ready for Motion.
I think the suggestion from the commenter makes sense, but sending out this courtesy email so that 60 GHz/DMG experts could also take a look before the CID is motioned at the January Interim meeting.
If you have concerns/feedback, please respond back to this thread.

Proposed Change
346
20.9.1
3880.27
"the antenna gain of the main beam of a quasi-omni antenna pattern should be at most 15 dB lower than the antenna gain in the main beam" is ambigous. Is it "the antenna gain ... is at most" the value which is 15 dB lower, or "the antenna gain ... is at most 15 dB lower" (but could be "less lower")?
Change to, "the antenna gain of the main beam of a quasi-omni antenna pattern should be higher than or equal to the antenna gain in the main beam for a directional pattern minus 15 dB"

DMG STAs use a quasi-omni antenna pattern. For a STA that is not operating in a TDD SP (see 10.39.6.2.2 (SP with TDD channel access)), the antenna gain of the main beam of a quasi-omni antenna pattern should be at most 15 dB lower than the antenna gain in the main beam for a directional pattern the antenna gain of the main beam of a quasi-omni antenna pattern should be higher than or equal to the antenna gain in the main beam for a directional pattern minus 15 dB, unless the STA is an EDMG STA that supports beamforming for asymmetric links (see 10.42.10.3 (Beamforming for asymmetric links)). In this case, the difference in antenna gain may be greater than 15 dB.

Thanks,
Youhan
