By leveraging existing standards, the proposed MAC builds upon mature protocol implementations that have been thoroughly evaluated and tested. The authors believe this will allow the vendor community to bring a complete and solid MAC solution to the market as quickly as possible. Purpose To provide a detailed description of a proposed MAC layer specification for IEEE 802.16 WG. Notice This document has been prepared to assist IEEE 802.16.
