About This Item

 

Full Description

Scope

This amendment defines modifications to the IEEE 802.11 medium access control layer (MAC) and to the Directional Multi Gigabit (DMG) and enhanced DMG (EDMG) PHYs to enhance Wireless Local Area Network (WLAN) sensing (SENS) operation in license-exempt frequency bands between 1 GHz and 7.125 GHz and above 45 GHz. This amendment enables: • Stations to perform one or more of the following: to inform other stations of their WLAN sensing capabilities, to request and setup transmissions that allow for WLAN sensing measurements to be performed, to indicate that a transmission can be used for WLAN sensing, and to exchange WLAN sensing feedback and information, • WLAN sensing measurements to be obtained using transmissions that are requested, unsolicited, or both, and • A MAC service interface for layers above the MAC to request and retrieve WLAN sensing measurements. This amendment defines modifications to the PHY service interface of the High Throughput (HT), Very High Throughput (VHT), High Efficiency (HE) and Extremely High Throughput (EHT) PHYs. This amendment provides backward compatibility and coexistence with legacy IEEE 802.11 devices operating in the same band.

Purpose

The purpose of this standard is to provide wireless connectivity for fixed, portable, and moving stations within a local area. This standard also offers regulatory bodies a means of standardizing access to one or more frequency bands for the purpose of local area communication.

Abstract

Amendment Standard - Active - Draft. This amendment defines modifications to the IEEE 802.11 medium access control (MAC); the physical layer (PHY) service interface of High Efficiency (HE) and Extremely High Throughput (EHT) PHYs; and to the Directional Multi Gigabit (DMG) and enhanced DMG (EDMG) PHYs to enhance Wireless Local Area Network (LAN) sensing operation in license-exempt frequency bands between 1 GHz and 7.125 GHz and above 45 GHz.
