Colleagues,

 

The common understanding was that the initial MRPM group was launched with support from folks in 802.11 working on multi radio paging.

[VG] 802.16 is also a component of this.

 

Under advice from the chair, that original work was discontinued.

[VG] There was no such advice and I am not sure if this has been discontinued. The PAR is not very clear on this as well.

The Study Group needs to decide what it wants to do.

 

The new work going on now is quite distinct from that, but unfortunately, the old group name and PAR schedule was preserved. Perhaps that is why the EC has been tolerant, since the new group and its new work are really different from the older work.

[VG] Just not clear what’s being said here. The 802EC is not aware of any such things. They will evaluate the PAR on its merits.

 

Best Regards,

Michael

Subject: [802.21] MRPM PAR: WG LB-3

Multi-Radio Power Management related presentations/discussions have been going on in 802.21 for almost two years.

The MRPM SG was created in July-2007.

Motions to approve the PAR produced by this group failed on two occasions in Jan-2008 and in March-2008.

Thereafter this group has gone ahead and done further work. The latest PAR from this group is now available at:

http://mentor.ieee.org/802.21/file/08/21-08-0250-06-mrpm-par-for-mrpm.doc

 

Below are instructions for WG LB-3 which asks the question to approve this PAR and forward it to 802EC for consideration at the Nov-08 meeting:

http://mentor.ieee.org/802.21/file/08/21-08-0281-00-0000-lb-3-instructions.doc

 

Ballot opening Date: Sep 20, 2008

Ballot closing date:   Oct 04, 2008, AOE (Anywhere on Earth)

 

Best Regards
