RE: stds-80220-requirements: Antenna Diversity Requirement, 4.1.12



Dear Mr. Kimura

I have to disagree with your notion of not putting a minimum requirement
on antenna diversity. Current generation systems have these capabilities
in the pipeline, so it seems very illogical not to shoot for higher
performance by putting at least a minimum requirement for antenna
diversity.

Subject: stds-80220-requirements: Antenna Diversity Requirement, 4.1.12


Dear ALL

  This is Shigeru Kimura.


  I want to propose to remove the section 4.1.12 of Rev 5.





  Section 4.1.12 - Antenna Diversity


  Current text

  At a minimum, both the Base Station and the Mobile Terminal shall
  provide two element diversity. Diversity may be an integral part of
  an advanced antenna solution.
  Proposed New text
  N/A(Delete section)


  Rationale

  Support for multiple antenna capability is described section 4.1.11.
  Section 4.1.12 defines a minimum antenna number for
  Base Station and Mobile Terminal.
  There is a contradiction between 4.1.11 and 4.1.12.
  Only  section  4.1.11  description is enough for multiple antenna
capability I
  think.
  And the antenna number of Mobile Terminal should not be defined in the
  Requirements Document.
  The important thing is the system performance with cost.

  Thank you.

               Kimura
