September 2015 doc.: IEEE 802.11-15/1121r0 Introduction Many features that are candidates for 11ax require a wide range of control information to be exchanged between HE STAs and AP Examples include: Buffer status feedback, channel quality information feedback, resource allocation, power save feedback, power control, rx. operation mode change, etc. All this control information needs to be signaled somewhere within exchanged frames between STAs We propose to define an HE Aggregated (A-) Control field that: Is a universal carrier of all control information needed for different 11ax features, Is flexible and can be dynamically added to any PPDU with minimal overhead Submission Slide 8 Alfred Asterjadhi, et. al.
September 2015 doc.: IEEE 802.11-15/1121r0 HE A-Control field 0-3 Bytes If 4 Octet boundary is preferred Padding HE Control 1 HE Control 2 HE Control N HE A-Control field We propose to define an HE A-Control field that: Carries one or more HE Control fields Each HE Control carries control info. for different HE features [1, 2, 3] HE A-Control field can be carried in PPDUs as part of: QoS Data/MGMT frames in the HT Control field HE A-Control field is compatible with HE variant of HT Control field See next slide It will be 4 Octets in length, i.e., no change in MAC header size Keeps backward compatibility Submission Slide 9 Alfred Asterjadhi, et. al.
September 2015 doc.: IEEE 802.11-15/1121r0 HE A-Control field as HT Control variant 2 2 6 6 6 2 0/6 0/2 0/4 0/8 variable 0/8 4 Duration /ID QoS Ctrl HT Ctrl CCMP Header Frame Body FC A1 A2 A3 SC A4 MIC FCS variable B1 B2 B6 B7 B0 VHT (1) HE (1) Control ID EOH (0) Ctrl. Info. Reserved value indicates HE A-Control variant of HT Control field HE A-Control field HE A-Control field added to QoS Data/Mgmt frames (variant of HT Control field) Currently the type of the HT Control field is determined by values of B0 and B1 B0 of HT Control field differentiates the VHT variant from the basic HT Control field (11n/11ac) If B0 and B1 are 1 then the HT Control field contains an HE A-Control field variant (11ax) Control ID field identifies the control information (usable for future amendments as well) End of HE Control (EOH) subfield in an HE Control indicates if another HE Control follows Contents of HT Control field across multiple MPDUs of an A-MPDU Currently it is the same for all HT Control fields generated by pre-11ax STAs (11n/11ac) Within HE PPDUs we may want to consider relaxing this restriction: A large variety of control information can be carried within the A-MPDU Increases robustness of info. by aggregating it in different parts of A-MPDU with minimal overhead Slide 10 Submission Alfred Asterjadhi, et. al.
September 2015 doc.: IEEE 802.11-15/1121r0 HE Control field: Preview Octets: 1 0 or more Reserved Control ID EOH Control Information Bits: 2 5 1 Control ID Control Information Description 0 Ack Indicates an Ack (successful RX of immediately preceding MPDU) 1 BAR Indicates a Block Ack Request (request for a block ack) 2 BA Indicates a Block Ack (receive status of previously received MPDUs) 3 QoS Control Indicates buffer status request/report (enhanced version of QoS Control) 4 CQI Control Indicates channel quality info./MCS feedback (enhanced version of HT) 5 Unicast Trigger Indicates a Trigger (resource allocation and other parameters for UL) 6 ROMI Indicates a receive operating mode change [2] 7-30 TBD 31 Extension Reserved for future extension See Appendix for a couple of examples Submission Slide 11 Alfred Asterjadhi, et. al.
September 2015 doc.: IEEE 802.11-15/1121r0 Summary We propose defining an HE A-Control field that: Is a universal carrier of control information needed for new 11ax features, Is flexible and can be dynamically added to any PPDU with minimal overhead Is extensible for future amendments Submission Slide 12 Alfred Asterjadhi, et. al.
September 2015 doc.: IEEE 802.11-15/1121r0 Straw Poll 1 Do you agree defining an HE variant (of the VHT variant) of the HT Control field that carries one or more control fields for HE control information? B0 and B1 of the HT Control field in this case are set to 1 The control fields can be called HE Control field Submission Slide 13 Alfred Asterjadhi, et. al.

July 2015 doc.: IEEE 802.11-15/1121r0 HE Control: E.g., request/response for ack Octets: 1 0 or more Ack (Control ID 0) Control ID Control Information Reserved EOH Octets: 2 4 Bits: 2 5 1 BAR (Control ID 1) BAR Control BAR Information HE Control 1 HE Control n Octets: 2 variable BA (Control ID 2) BA Control BA Information HE A-Control field Same contents as Ack/BAR/BA frames STA adds HE Control to request/respond for/with acknowledgements HE Control is part of the HE A-Control field The STA can carry control information in an HE A-Control field instead of adding Ack, BlockAck, or BAR frames whenever possible Reduces MAC overhead and simplifies design as it eliminates the need of aggregating multiple CTRL frames Submission Slide 16 Alfred Asterjadhi, et. al.
September 2015 doc.: IEEE 802.11-15/1121r0 HE Control: E.g., buffer status poll/report Octets: 1 2 2 Control ID Control Information QoS Control (Control ID 3) QoS Control Reserved EOH Bits: 2 5 1 Reserved TID/ SF TXOP Duration Requested TID /SF HE Control 1 HE Control n Queue Size BS polling BS report The AP polls the STAs for their buffer status in an efficient way [3] It sends BS polling frames that contain an enhanced QoS Control field Specifying whether polling is per-TID , all-TID and other related BS polling parameters Non-AP STAs deliver buffer status reports in the QoS Control field Per-TID BS information is carried in QoS Data and QoS Null frames All-TID, per-TID BS information is carried in the enhanced QoS Control field The enhanced QoS Control can be aggregated with other info. in HE A-Control Reduces the incurred MAC overhead and has other benefits as specified in [3] Submission Slide 17 Alfred Asterjadhi, et. al.
September 2015 doc.: IEEE 802.11-15/1121r0 HE Control: E.g., unicast Trigger Octets: 1 0 or more Octets: Variable (TBD) Control ID Control Information Unicast Trigger (Control ID 5) Trigger Information Reserved EOH Bits: 2 5 1 Same contents as per-STA Info field of Trigger frame HE Control 1 HE Control n HE A-Control field AP can add an HE Control field to indicate unicast trigger information Subchannel allocation for a STA, compressed/uncompressed UL MAC format, etc. Reduces overhead of a standalone MAC frame etc. [1] By being part of an HE A-Control carried in a DL MU PPDU This way additional control information for the STA can be carried in the DL MU PPDU with minimal overhead Submission Slide 18 Alfred Asterjadhi, et. al.
