Comment
There is control for ranging support defined in the standard but there is actually no real specification.
Proposed Change
The definition of the ranging methods need to be implemented in a real chapter and defined in enough detail to enable interoperable solution. Moving the ranging techniques in a informative annex is counterproductive to the idea of supporting interoperable implementations.

3. CID 151 (cont’d) Proposed Resolution Reject

CID 151 (cont’d)
Proposed Resolution
Reject
The allocation of a bit in the PHR to control ranging is consistent with the base standard (e.g. ranging in the UWB PHY). Ranging facilities are also provided at the MAC which further extend the ranging facilities in the base standard, with minimal added complexity and overhead.
