[STDS-802-11] Discussion on a potential new IEEE Std 802 Project

--- This message came from the IEEE 802.11 Working Group Reflector ---

Dear All,

 

The ARC SC is discussing if there is an 802.11 WG need for a new Project to include a standardized 802 architecture in IEEE Std 802 for the 802 “family” of specification (802.1, 802.3, 802.11, ….).

 

Background and information on this possible new Project is provided in 11-22/1600r0.   This new Project would likely be an 802 SC level project, managed by 802.1 (as the current maintenance project (PAR) IEEE P802-REVc – “Standard for Local and Metropolitan Area Networks: Overview and Architecture” is being managed)

 

The question the ARC SC is discussing is (from slide 3 of 11-22/1600r0):

 

Do we agree with any of these, or want to suggest another alternative?

    1. IEEE Std 802 should provide a standardized 802 architecture
    2. IEEE Std 802 should standardize a “harmonization” / “translation” for the “802 family”
    3. IEEE Std 802 should not provide standardized architecture

 

This email is intended to start an 802.11 reflector discussion, allowing for broad participation in this 802.11 WG discussion.  If you have an opinion,  thoughts, comments, or questions please share them on this email thread.  This topic will also be discussed during the ARC SC meeting in Bangkok,  Tuesday 15 November 2022 AM2 (10:30-12:30 h THA).

 

Regards,

Joseph Levy (InterDigital)
