RE: August 3rd ad hoc on requirements
Greetings,
Comment 1 on chapter 5.2 on rev 6 requirement document:
The following text:
"The 802.21 standard shall facilitate handover scenarios related to
WLAN-cellular inter-working as specified by Scenarios 4 and 5 in 3GPP
standard."
Shall be removed.
Reason: It is a major architectural requirement, which forces the proposals
to guess how the 3GPP release 7 (in which the scenarios 4 and 5 are possible
candidates) might solve the problem. This is not feasible on the current
802.21 timeframe.
Further information: If the 802.11/15/16/(20?) AP:s are connected to
cellular system's BSCs/RNCs, which possibly is the consequence of the
scenarios 4 and 5 which must be expanded to all the 802 systems that 802.21
should cover, it means considerable additions on the above mentioned
cellular system nodes. By removing the above mentioned text, the proposals
will have more freedom how to solve the interoperability between 802 and
cellular systems. When the 802.21 proposals are available for evaluation, it
is possibly also better known also within the 802.21 into which direction
the 3GPP is moving on the scenarios 4 and 5, and thus the evaluation process
can take that information also into account.
