  1. On the Need for an 802.11ai Annex Authors: • Date:2014-09-15 Xaiofei WANG, InterDigital

  2. Abstract • Some comments received in response to LB201 have suggested that an Annex describing how the various optional FILS elements/indicators in the FD frame and the beacon may be used. Xaiofei WANG, InterDigital

  3. FILS Elements for System Use • E.g., CID 4911 comments: Add an Annex to explain the system requirements for FILS. • Some of the text in the Procedure clause (10.44, D2.0) provided information about frame elements which has no MAC procedures associated with them • These elements have higher layer and implementation “procedures” which they can enable. But, these “procedures” are not in the scope of 802.11. • These redundant element descriptions in the Procedures clause are proposed to be removed, as the elements are defined in the Frames clause. • Hence, the standard does not provide insight on how to use these elements. • Previous amendments have addressed this issue by adding an Annex which describes the suggested “procedures”, e.g., GAS provided Annex V Interworking with external networks. Xaiofei WANG, InterDigital

  4. Straw Poll • Do you agree that TGai should generate an Annex to describe and clarify the use of the FILS elements and how they can be used to enable Fast Initial Link Setup? • Yes: • No: • Abstain: Xaiofei WANG, InterDigital
