This document provides resolutions for MAC CIDs on Sectorization.

Some STAs "STAs may not support sectorization, and supporting would not consider themselves in grp sectorization 0 consider themselves in grp 0 by default". 3576 9.48 293 51 Why define two Sectorized Tx modes Merge the Reject. in parallel? Our experience with two Zhang some optional 11n features proved sectorization that multiple modes of the same modes into feature will eventually kill this feature, one mode because of interop issues. 3722 Liwen 8.4.2.170e 133 1 How can you indicate Period in Change to in Reject Chu Beacon Intervals when Period is in 0.1 Beacon of 10 milliseconds?

I think it also need comment. to be clear how to differentiate sectorized Beacon Intervals and Omni Beacon intervals from non-AP STA point of view.
