Chapter 7: Convergence Sublayer (CS)

Table 7.1: CID ranges as defined in Reference . Values are between 0000 (the 16 bits are equal to zero) and FFFF (the 16 bits are equal to one).

The CID value of basic, primary and secondary management connections for each SS are assigned in a ranging message (see Chapter 11). (From IEEE Std 802.16-2004 . Copyright IEEE 2004, IEEE.
