PHY-FH –Switch channels during Tx of PPDU.

Submission Doc: IEEE 802.15-09-0536-00-004eJuly 2009 Wun-Cheol Jeong et al.Slide 8 MAC Channel Diversity vs PHY-FH If PHY-FH generates set of physical channels for Tx of a PPDU, say length of m, MAC shall see m orthogonal logical channels. Same channel diversity can be applied using these logical channels to obtain diversity gain. Set of PHY-FH sequences can be generated by LUT method or pseudo random method like polynomial-based generator (or other method that PHY suggests). However, logical channel shall indicate unique set of physical channels.
