This contribution proposes text changes to Flow ID section of the IEEE 802.16m D1 [2] . The proposed changes
is to specify the allocation of each FID value.

15.2.1.2.2 Flow Identifier (FID)
Each AMS connection is assigned a 4bits long FID that uniquely identifies the connection within the AMS.
FIDs identify management connection and transport connections. One Control FID and one Pre-provisioned
transport connection for BE are pre-assigned. If the value is 0010 it indicates that the MPDU is signaling header.
See table xxx for the specific value.

There are two types of unicast control connections - Basic connection and Primary connection. There is a single
unicast Control connection. HARQ shall be enabled for MAC control messages sent on the unicast cControl
connections.
