Re: [STDS-802-16] CID in DL Map
Vladimir,
I dont agree with your suggestion that the BS can transmit in the DL
a DLMAP with the broadcast CID and concatenate MPDUs belonging to different
traffic CID as you suggest in the email below.
The burst addressed by a DLMAP using the broadcast CID should have
MPDUs whose MAC header has the broadcast CID only.
similarly
The burst addressed by a DLMAP using the multicast CID should have
MPDUs whose MAC header has the multicast CID only.
Regards,
-Raja

Baraa,
First, "packing" is not related to DL-MAP IEs. Probably you mean
"concatenation" =
creating burst payload by merging several MAC PDUs.
CID in the DL-MAP IE has the following sense for SS. First SS must identify
whether the DL connection identified by the CID belongs to the SS i.e.
was established by DSx procedure with the SS involved as a destination [note
that
this covers also the case of multicast connection].
IF (the connection identified by the CID in DL-MAP IE belongs to the SS)
THEN
the SS must decode the burst and extract all MAC PDUs. Presumably,
all MAC PDUs are addressed to the SS
ELSE IF (CID = broadcast) THEN
the SS must decode the burst, extract all MAC PDUs and decode those
addressed to the SS [according to CID
in Generic MAC Header]
ELSE
SS may ignore the burst

I made a mistake. Please replace:
Reading this I would understand that packing of multiple CIDs (for the
same SS) on the DL is note allowed. Is this understanding consistent
with everyone's?
