RE: 3GPP TSG SA liaison statement to 802.16
Dear Roger,
Thanks for notifying us of this liaison from 3GPP.
For 802.21 members I have placed the LS on 802.21 web site at:
http://www.ieee802.org/21/doctree/2007-05_meeting_docs/L80216-07_022.pdf
Also I have created an initial response for this LS which we plan to
submit to 802.16 for consideration in their May meeting:
http://www.ieee802.org/21/doctree/2007-05_meeting_docs/C80216-07_0xxx.do
c
We shall also plan on discussing this further within 802.21 as well.
Kind Regards
-Vivek
