 * The **wifi BCC AWGN error rate tables** have been aligned with the ones provided by MATLAB and users may note a few dB difference when using BCC at high SNR and high MCS.
 * **`ThreeGppChannelModel` has been fixed**: cluster and sub-cluster angles could have been generated with inclination angles outside the inclination range `[0, pi]`, and have now been constrained to the correct range.
 * The **LTE RLC Acknowledged Mode (AM) transmit buffer** is now limited by default to a size of (`1024 * 10`) bytes. Configuration of unlimited behavior can still be made by passing the value of zero to the new attribute `MaxTxBufferSize`.
+* A **non-AP MLD loses association** when receiving no beacon an any link link for an interval of duration equal to the maximum number of missed beacons times the interval between two consecutive Beacon frames.
