While the 802.16 Working Group remains in hibernation, work is nevertheless underway on the development of a new amendment to IEEE Std 802.16. The amendment project is entitled P802.16t - "Fixed and Mobile Wireless Access in Narrowband Channels”. The work is being conducted in the IEEE 802.15 Working Group, within new Task Group 16t (chaired by Tim Godfrey).

The new project was authorized on 2020-02-12, as detailed at <https://mentor.ieee.org/802.15/dcn/20/15-20-0088-00-016t.pdf>.
