Re: [STDS-802-16] Fwd: 802.11 Contention-Based Protocol SG update



Roger,

We may use the 802.16h night session to draft the 802.16 comments.

The coexistence in light-licensed bands should be appropiately addressed in
the 802 relevant standards, independent of the future FCC regulatory
decissions on the 3.65GHz band. Can we propose a Study Group to address this
issue? Which would be the best location: 802.16, 802.19, 802?

Regards,

Mariana

Interesting news below regarding plans for the 802.11 Contention-Based
Protocol SG. There appears to be an intent to withdraw the PAR proposal for
now.

If 802.16 has comments on the PAR, we might still want to submit them, in
the unlikely case that 802.11 would decide to go ahead with the PAR in spite
of the SG recommendation. Or we could simply submit a statement supporting
the plans, or proposing a modification of the plans.

802.11 Contention Based Protocol Study Group (CBP SG).

unclear at present as pertaining to the current 802.11y PAR and 5C work
effort, the study group members feel that acting upon approval of this PAR
for forwarding with EC approval to NesCom is questionable at present.
Therefore, the current resolve is to present the facts to the 802.11 WG body
during our Monday afternoon WG Plenary in San Francisco. This would be to
recommend to the WG membership that the PAR and 5C be removed for
consideration by the 802 EC on and withdrawn from the Friday agenda at the
July session. Subsequently, the 802.11 would ask for the 802 EC at the
closing Friday meeting to extend the life of the CBP SG up to and including
the next Plenary in November 2005, if so approved by the 802.11 membership.

>Finally, the Chair of the SG unfortunately has an unavoidable personal
issue so he will not be able to attend the 802 EC Meeting on Monday or the
802.11 Opening Plenary, but will be at our session from Wednesday onwards.
In the meantime I have asked Jan Kruys to act as Chair pro-tem until Peter
joins us later in the week. Jan has played an active part in the work of the
SG and will be present at the 802 EC Monday meeting as well as driving the
WG debate.

>>Hi Stuart,
>> 
>>At our last SG telecon, we reviewed the situation:
>> 
>>There is no timetable for the start of FCC actions. The publication of FCC
05-45, 70/80/90 GHz took three months, of 05-65 3650-3700 MHz took two
months.
>>
>>FCC 05-65 Wireless Broadband Services in the 3650-3700 MHz Band became law
May 11th
>>
>>Eight petitions for reconsideration were received by the FCC on June 10th
>>
>>There are four distinct possibilities:
>>
>>The FCC publishes a notice asking for comments on the petitions, and
replies to those comments (60 days)
>>
>>The FCC publishes a notice asking for replies to the petitions (15 or 30
days)
>>
>>The FCC writes a memorandum opinion and order, perhaps making small
changes
>>
>>The FCC does nothing
>>
>>The CBP-SG felt that acting on 802.11-05/565r1 draft PAR in the July
session is questionable, and will discuss the situation in the 802.11 Monday
WG Plenary, and ask that the Study Group be continued through the November
Plenary, so that we can make whatever changes seem adequate and have the
November ExCom meeting decide.
