4 Introduction/ Caveats
Aug 2008 Introduction/ Caveats An illustration – for discussion catalyst purposes only. An example to demonstrate the architectural framework result that is desired. Represents a sample component breakdown. Not the only component breakdown approach or the best approach, just an approach. Purpose is to show the components within and the relationship between those components in a consistent architectural framework. Darwin Engwer, Nortel Networks

5 Component Breakdown Approach
Aug 2008 doc.: IEEE /0949r3 Aug 2008 Component Breakdown Approach Component views are often specific to a one architecture and can even become device specific. The goal here is to resist that tendency and create a view that is independent of specific architectures or device implementations. The level of detail must be optimized to yield the best combination of complexity exposure and ease of comprehension. Darwin Engwer, Nortel Networks Darwin Engwer, Nortel Networks

Broadcast data transmission after DTIM Receive data addressed to power:saver. Receive PS:Poll. Send Data/Ack. Ex: no PS:Poll ever received Receive data addressed to power:saver. Notification of leaving PS state. Send Data/Ack. Power saver wakes for beacon, checks TIM, sends PS:Poll. Darwin Engwer, Nortel Networks
