2. Resolution to Comments on MAC Subheader
Rev 1
NICT

3. Summary
This document proposes the resolutions for the 2 comments on MAC Subheader

4. Resolutions
Comment #446: Unify Subheader lengths 33 and 34 by using 34
Resolution: Accept. In D00, MAC subheader is 34 octets for standard mode, 36 octets for low latency EEP mode, and 68 octets for low latency UEP mode. As indicated in the resolution for comment #310, it is suggested to add one octet RX buffer size field and three octet reserve bits field in MAC subheader of standard mode to have only two lengths for MAC subheader of 38 and 70 octets. It is suggested by comment #297 to add 2 more octets for MSDU-Reply field.
Comment # 451: There are three subheader rates with little saving. Reduce subheader rate options to 2 in Table 102
Resolution: Accept. There is no much difference in terms of efficiency using spreading factor of 1 and 2 in header, while using spreading factor 2 offers better header protection. Remove Subheader rate of 572 Mbps with pi/2-BPSK and spreading factor of 1. Keep Mbps with spreading factor of 2 and Mbps with spreading factor of 4 . 4 4
