            |   | 25 |  * Previous schemes only suggest two channels, one radio. This C2M needs 2 radios. | 
          
          
            |   | 26 |  * The performance improvement comes from a "shaky" assumption: RTS/CTS is sending in lowest rate. If RTS/CTS is in the same rate as DATA frames. The conclusion would be: little throughput improvement.  | 
          
          
            |   | 27 |  * RTS/CTS is not mandatory in IEEE 802.11. In most scenarios, the benefits of RTS/CTS are fairly small. If the CS range is set to equal to interference range, the hidden node could be avoided without RTS/CTS.  | 
          
          
            |   | 28 |  * Continue from above, is per-packet reservation a bad idea? | 
          
          
            |   | 29 |  * With a new digital channel, more comprehensive information could be transported in that channel, instead of per-packet reservation. | 
          
          
            |   | 30 |  * It is possible to put ACK in control channel for better spatial reuse (for receiving block problem....) |
