| --- This message came from the IEEE 802.11 Working Group Reflector ---
Hi Ben, thanks for your email. Seems to me that it may be better to handle what you suggest in 802.19. Coex SC dealt in the past mainly with LSs between 802.11 and 3GPP. Topics were channel access rules and fairness. My interpretation of Andrewâ??s email is to continue with interaction, mainly regarding WLAN/NR-U coexistence. I believe that such interaction should be independent of bands of operation, similarly to approach taken so far in the Coex SC.   Thanks and Regards,  Vinko..    From: Benjamin A. Rolfe [mailto:ben@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx]  --- This message came from the IEEE 802.11 Working Group Reflector --- Hi Andrea, Thank you for the information and outreach, and specifically to those with interests in the 6 GHz band. I read this to indicate that you wish to include coexistence with all services, including other 802 wireless, in the scope of the study group - which is a great idea IMO. If that's the wrong read, please correct. I think you hit a key attitude issue with your "only game in town"; depending on what "town" you mean, in most of the world this has not been a true statement for decades. There are in fact many license exempt uses besides WiFi, and many billions of of those licensed exempt device are based upon 802 standards other than 802.11.  WiFi provides a visible label which consumers recognize, which shows up on the outside of the box.  There are 802 wireless standards enabling operation in a diverse range devices. 802.15.4 in particular is used in a dizzying array of applications where high bits/sec is not the critical performance metric, which includes some rapidly growing application areas such as secure entry. Perhaps the reason many people feel WiFi is the "only game in town" is because in 802 we've taken coexistence seriously and consider the impacts of new standards on the operation of other 802 standards. Seriously - good coexistence is an factor in market success. One of those not noticed things until it's noticed: when you do it right it's not noticed, when we don't, being noticed is a bad thing. We've seen this suppressing 802.11 use in applications where it's feared to be disruptive e.g. 900 MHz 11ah. It really is in "our" best interests to consider how to coexist! Preaching to the choir I suppose, consider it an hearty endorsement of your efforts! If there's an argument in there that helps you, better still. I may be able to provide a short presentation on 6 GHz coexistence at the November meeting, depending on when the SC meets. I've not seen the consolidated schedule yet - when does your SC meet?  I promise to keep it positive. Thanks again, G'day Ben On 10/11/2018 11:01 PM, Andrew Myles (amyles) wrote:
