Therefore, the Link Type field does not make sense. "Link Type" field shall be replaced by "Initiator" field, which indicates whether the sender is the initiator. Accepted- TGay editor to make the changes in under all headings that include CID 1145. 1498 75 1 The SU/MU field of the MIMO Setup Control element is set to 1 in case of SU, while the SU/MU format field in the field is set to 0 in that case. The MAC and PHY have different rules, and it is confusing and inconvinient. Use the same rule as PHY: 0/1 for SU/MU, instead of 1/0. Additionally, the field name can be changed to "MU mode" for example. Revised- Agreed to use the same rule for SU/MU field as PHY. But it is unnecessary to rename the SU/MU field to the MU mode field. Similar change should be made on the SU/MU field in the MIMO Poll Control element and the MIMO Feedback Control element.

Replace "Aggregation Requested with "Channel Aggregation Requested field", and change all references to the field accordingly.
