Introduction
Current Figures 9, 10, 11 and 14 are not uniform to the current SDD texts on the IEEE 802.16m
protocol structure in Section 8.1. For example, according to the current SDD texts in Section
8.1, Interference Management is a functional block and is not a part of PHY Control block.
However, in Figures 9, 10, 11, and 14, Interference Management is a part of PHY Control block.
In addition, according to the current SDD texts in Section 8.1, MAC includes the Inte-BS
Coordination block. However, Figures 9, 10, and 11 do not include Inter-BS Coordination block.
As a result, Figures 9, 10, 11 and 14 need modifications to keep uniformity with the current
SDD texts in Section 8.1.
