Sure. I will add them to the Documentation file.

There is no strict binding between TPDM and TPDA.
TPDA can have multiple TPDMs connect to it.
But There must be only one TPDA in the path from the TPDM source to TMC 
sink.
TPDM can directly connect to TPDA's inport
or connect to funnel which will connect to TPDA's inport.

The TPDMs which are connected to same TPDA shares the same
trace-id. When TPDA does packetization, different port will have
unique channel number for decoding.
