RE: stds-802-16: letter from ITU-R to IEEE 802.16



Folks,

I represented Alvarion in the 8A/9B meeting. Clearly, the existing study
charter of this group:
- fixed systems using mobile technology !
- RLANs (the nomadic function was classified as a mobile one).
was achieved.

 Was much discussion around 802.16 and the fixed-mobile convergence issue.
9B Chair has invited myself to provide for next meeting (end Feb) a
description of a
 converged fixed-mobile system, to be addressed by 9B in relation to the
Spectrum
 vision active question. Regarding 802.16e mobile systems or future 802.20,
these
 are 8A competence, if terms of reference like "beyond 3G" are avoided.

The classification of "nomadic systems" as mobile, is making now many
regulators
to exclude the nomadic use of 3.5GHz band. In my view, 802.16 should make
the first 
step towards including nomadic outdoor-to-indoor use in fixed bands.

That makes sense.

Brian,

Our letter to ITU-R focused on our existing (fixed) standards.

Note that the ITU-R response discusses an issue closely related to the
one you mentioned:

"The meeting discussed in which ITU-R series this draft Recommendation
should be developed. The ITU-R view is that the initial preparation
should be based on a F-series Recommendation (Fixed service) taking into
account that the material derived from the IEEE Standard 802.16 would
focus on fixed aspects of the standard. Subsequently, the inclusion of
the mobility capabilities would be the aim of a M-series Recommendation
(Mobile service)."

Roger
