RE: stds-802-16: 802.18 draft: Reply Comments on 5 GHz NPRM



I paste here the text that was in the July document:

19.	While we fully realize that the power limits for the 5150-5350
 and 5470-5725 MHz bands have been set by recent changes to the
 ITU Radio Regulations, and furthermore that the subject of additional
 "high power" spectrum in the 5 GHz region is beyond the scope of the
 instant NPRM, we are not convinced that the Commission's
 expectation as stated above is necessarily correct.

20.	The 5725-5825MHz U-NII "high-power" band is currently used
 by WLANs (IEEE 802.11a), point to point systems, point to multipoint
 WAN/local broadband wireless access systems (IEEE 802.16 and
 other systems), and numerous other Part 15 systems, including
 cordless phones. We therefore have a general concern that the
 Commission's expectation that the 100 MHz of the 5725-5825 MHz
 band will remain sufficient for higher power operations may not be
 realistic, particularly if the band is used by more than one public
 access or public service operator in the same geographic area.

Hi,

I recommend to "NOT APPROVE" the proposed text.

5 GHz NPRM, pct. 18, is asking for comments regarding the
 spectrum for high power operations:

" We expect that the 100 MHz of spectrum that is already available at
 5.725-5.825 GHz will remain sufficient for higher power operations.
  We note in particular that operations over longer distances employ
 directional antennas that allow for high reuse and sharing of the spectrum,
 which mitigates the need for additional spectrum for these types of
 operations.  We seek comment on this analysis."

In July 802.18 meeting, at my and Ley John's request, the 802.18 agreed
 response was to make clear that this spectrum is not enough (appropriate
 text was in the document; as result of my satisfaction I supported the
 document approval, as seconder).

The mentioned response shall be re-inserted.

I request that 802.18 input documents are posted on the Server,
 (my July input document is not on the 802.18 contribution list, but
 has been discussed) and the outputs as well, according to
 IEEE 802 rules. July output is also not available on 802.18 Server 
(wrong link). 


Best Regards,

Marianna

As noted below, the 802.18 TAG is considering a submission to the FCC 
and has sent it to the 802.11 and 802.15 plenaries in Singapore for 
review.

Carl has uploaded the draft for our review. See the document 
beginning "18-03-0061" at <http://wg.wirelessman.org>.

Let me know if you have comments.

Roger
