This document discusses the scheduling and allocation of resources on multiple channels in the IEEE 802.11-16/1208r0 standard for 11ay technology. It covers topics such as channelization, bandwidth signaling, and channel aggregation in the context of 11ay operation. The document provides insights into how 11ay supports the allocation of SPs and scheduled CBAPs over multiple channels, aiming to enhance efficiency and flexibility in wireless communication systems.

doc.: IEEE 802.11-16/1208r0 September 2016 Background It was agreed that 11ay shall support allocation of SP(s) and scheduled CBAP(s) over more than one channel and over a bonded channel [1].

doc.: IEEE 802.11-16/1208r0 September 2016 Background In 11ad, DTI is coordinated as CBAP and SP using a schedule by PCP/AP, and the scheduling allocation can occur every BI by beacon or announce frame. Flexible channel allocation can maximize the use of all available channels, the method of allocation based on 11ad is not efficient in respect of multi-channel operation. In [2], the reserved bits in Extended Schedule element are proposed to be used for signaling the channel allocation to EDMG STAs for multi-channel operation. Submission Huawei Technologies 3
doc.: IEEE 802.11-16/1208r0 September 2016 Recap on channelization and bandwidth signaling for EDMG [3] It has been agreed that in 11ay, up to six 2.16 GHz channels as well as the overlapped bonded channels can be used. The following fields are agreed to be added in EDMG-Header-A to indicate the channel allocation 1 bit channel aggregation field 8 bits bandwidth field Channel BW Channel BW #1 #2 #3 #4 #5 #6 2.16GHz #9 #11 #13 4.32GHz #10 #12 11ay shall only allow the following combinations for channel aggregation: 2.16GHz + 2.16GHz 4.32GHz + 4.32GHz #19 #17 6.48GHz #18 #20 #25 #26 8.64GHz #27 Frequency (GHz) Submission Huawei Technologies 4
