[STDS-802-16] DL-MAP frame length



Dear all,
I have some doubt in DL-MAP frame length.

It's given that the minimum length of DL-MAP message is 24 bytes(whether it means neglecting
DL-MAP IE & Extended IE messages???)
But when I refered to Std 802.16-2004(OFDM phy),I was able to get only the following fields in
DL-MAP frame,Mgmt_Message_type(1 byte),DCD_Change_Cnt(1byte),BS_Id(6 bytes),
Mac_generic_header(6 bytes),CRC(4 bytes)(I am negleting DL-MAP IE & extended IE),
so i get a total of 18 bytes only...

I am missing any or I am wrong...

Thanks
Vimal
