History: PAR APP: Sep 21, 1995
Project Scope: Specifications of mechanisms in MAC bridges to expedite delivery
of time critical traffic and to limit the extent of high bandwidth multicast
traffic within a Bridged Local Area Network. Specification of mechanisms
to classify traffic as supporting time critical services or requiring
multicast filtering on the basis of MAC frame information. Specification of
optional protocol mechanism in MAC bridges to support dynamic registration
for time critical delivery or filtering services by end stations.
Specification of optional protocols between MAC Bridges to convey
registration information in a Bridged Local Area Network.
Project Purpose: To improve support of time critical and multicast intensive
applications, including "multi-media" interactive applicatios, across
bridged LANs. To reduce the degree to which the level of multicast traffic
and the loading levels selected for timely information delivery limit the
number of attached stations and the throughput of Bridged Local Area
Networks. To facilitate Bridged Local Area Network support of the
"hierarchical multicast" capabilities developed for internets, in a way that
is compatible with their emerging network layer protocols.

Project Scope: To develop an architecture and protocols for the use of multiple
instances of the Spanning Tree Protocol (-1-) within a network employing
VLANs (-2-). The architecture and protocols will be compatible and
interoperable with existing Virtual Bridged Local Area Network equipment and
will support a range of implemenntations.
Project Purpose: 802.1Q Virtual LANs provides the equivalent of separate LANs
over a single bridged LAN, using a single instance of the Spanning Tree
Protocol. Despite multiple independent implementations employing multiple
instances of the Spanning Tree Protocol, there is currently no
interoperability between different vendors, nor a coherent management
framework for different techniques. This standard will provide an
architecture, protocols, and mappings for bridges to provide that
interoperability and consistent management.

History: PAR APP: Jun 26, 1999, BD APP: Mar 17, 2001, ANSI APP: Aug 2, 2001
Project Scope: IEEE 802.1Q specifies a single PVID variable (Port VLAN
Identifier) for each port of a switch. The configurable value of this
single PVID variable specifies the VLAN into which frames untagged at
ingress to the port are to be classified. The project will develop a
supplement to 802.1Q to specify optional additional classification rules per
port based on the protocol (as designated in the frame by 802 family
portocols identifiers) in the received untagged frame. The project will
consider compatibility and interoperability with existing 802.1Q bridges.
Project Purpose: Classifying multiple protocols into a single VLAN often
imposes VLAN boundaries that are inappropriate for some of the protocols,
requiring th presence of a non-standard entity to relay between VLANs the
frames bearing the protocols for which the VLAN boundaries are
inappropriate. The non-standard relay makes the boundaries of the VLANs
transparent to the relayed protocols, depriving those protocols of the
benefits of the VLANs. The proposed supplement will benefit users of multi-
protocol LANs by permitting them to specify VLAN structures suitable for
each protocol present in a LAN, and removing the need for a non-standard
relay function between VLANs.

Project Scope: Specificatoin of enhancements to the auto-configuring mechanisms
and management controls in 802.1D-1998 that constrain user data frames to
all or part of a loop free topology. Where redundant alternate bridges
and/or connecting LANs are available, these enhancements will provide faster
reconfiguration and restoration of the MAC service if LAN component failure
occurs.
Project Purpose: LAN based applications, including new voice and multi-media
solutions, are increasingly mission critical and require much improved
network availability and scalability. An availability strategy that
includes redundant bridges and LAN media, together with rapid failure
detection and reconfiguration, allows the use of currently available cost
effective LAN components. Techniques that are broadly compatible with
802.1D-1998, but not interoperable, are now emerging from multiple vendors.
The proposed project will provide users with interoperable solutions.

History: PAR APP: Mar 30, 2000, BD APP: Jun 14, 2001, ANSI APP: Oct 25, 2001
Project Scope: Specification of: (a) mechanisms to allow network access
decisions, made using existing standard higher layer authentication and
authorization protocols, to be enforced at individual ports of a networked
system; (b) encoding of those protocols over 802 LANs where no suitable
encoding is yet defined. The project will not define or require systems
that are enforcing network access decisions to: (c) process or interpret
authentication information; (d) modify user data frames to secure
conversations; (e) filter user data frames based on layer 2 or higher layer
adressing or protocol information. The access control mechanism will be
usable on LAN ports of all types of systems attached to a LAN, including
bridges, routers, servers and other end stations.
Project Purpose: There is no standard mechanism that allows a network
administrator to control access to and from a LAN segment based on the
authenticated state of a port user. Simple network connectivity affords
anonymous access to enterprise data and the global Internet. As 802 LANs
are deployed in more accessible areas, there is an increasing need to
authenticate and authorize basic network access. The proposed project will
provide common interoperable solutions using standards based authentication
and authorization infrastructures already supporting schemes such as dial up
access.

Abstract: This standard is part of a family of local area network (LAN)
standards dealing with the physical and data link layers as defined by the
ISO Open Systems Interconnection Reference Model. It describes the
functions, features, protocol, and services of the logical link control
(LLC) sublayer, which constitutes the top sublayer in the data link layer of
the ISO 8802 Local Area Network Protocol. The services required of, or by,
the LLC sublayer at the logical interfaces with the network layer, the MAC
sublayer, and the LLC sublayer management function are specified. The
protocol data unit (PDU) structure for data communication systems is defined
using bit-oriented procedures, as are two types of operation for data
communication between service access points. In one type of operation, PDUs
are exchanged between LLCs without the need for the establishment of a data
link connection. In the other, a data link connection is established between
two LLCs prior to any exchange of information-bearing PDUs.

Project Scope: 1. The CSMA/CD access method of IEEE 802.3 will be retained
without change. Therefore, the only change to Clause 4 Media access Control
and Clause 6 PLS Service Specifications will be to add a subclause 4.4.2.3
containing the parameterized values for 100 Mb/s operation of the MAC.
Management definitions will be provided that build upon the existing set
with minimal changes. 2. The link segment phyical layer specification and
the multiport repeater specification will be optimized for operation over
100 meter TP links supporting one or more of the horizontal wiring schemes
specified in EIA/TIA-568:1991 and TSB-36. The architecture will be
sufficiently open that other physical later specifications may be added as
future projects. A media independent interface (MII) will be defined which
will allow operation of multiple physical later implementations under the
MAC. 3. It is recognized that there may be some minor editorial changes
required for editorial alignment. For example: "The PLS is found in
chapter7" would require correction.l
Project Purpose: This standard will provide a higher speed capability for 802.3
LANs at 100 Mb/s, made possible by recent developments in high spped
signaling, particularly on unshielded twisted pair and advances in silicon
technology. It will afford significant performance improvements with minimal
vendor and customer investments by leveraging the infrastructure of 802.3
research, development and market deployment. The design focus for Higher
Speed CSMA/CD is better performance for existing applications that are
characterized by bursty traffic. This standard is also expected to support
emerging applications in the market.
Abstract: The ISO/IEC CSMA/CD Media Access Control (MAC) is coupled with a
family of new Physical Layer specifications to achieve 100 Mb/s operation.
Known collectively as 100BASE-T, this family of Physical Layer
specifications includes 100BASE-T4, which uses four pairs of ISO/IEC 11801:
1995 Category 3, 4, or 5 balanced cable; 100BASE-TX, which uses two pairs of
Category 5 balanced cable or 150 ohm shielded balanced cable; and 100BASE-
FX, which uses two multi-mode fibers. The two 100BASE-X specifications
(100BASE-TX and 100BASE-FX) reused portions of the 100 Mb/s physical
signaling specifications originally developed for Fibre Distributed Data
Interface (FDDI).

Project Scope: To define the specification for bi-directional, simultaneous
transmission and reception of IEEE 802.3 frames over media capable of
supporting simultaneous bi-directional signaling (twisted pair and/or
fiber). Flow control mechanisms will be addressed as relevant.
Project Purpose: This standard will provide a higher performance option to the
existing standard that allows performance to be optimized for IEEE 802.3
LANs (currently 10 and 100 Mb/s). This performance enhancement is made
possible by the separate transmit and receive channels of twosted pair
and/or fiber technologies. This standard will allow significant performance
improvement and will provide a basis for interoperation of products referred
to as 802.3 Full Duplex.
Abstract: Necessary changes and additions are made to provide for an
additional, full duplex mode of operation on a speed-independent basis.
Changes are made to the MAC and selected Physical Layer implementations
(10BASE-T, 10BASE-FL, 100BASE-T) to support full duplex. A mechanism for
pause-based flow control is also added.

Project Scope: A physical layer will be defined for 100BASE-T networks
operating over cabling plants where two pairs of ISO/IEC 11801 Category 3 or
better balanced twisted pair cabling are available. The standard will
additionally be compatible with all other currently planned work.
Project Purpose: This standard will allow 100 Mb/s operation on the majority of
balanced cable (e.g. twisted pair) plants in use today, including virtually
all of the cabling specified in the 10BASE-T standard. It will increase the
availability of the 100 Mb/s speed to 802.3 LANs where only two pairs of
Category 3 or better balanced cabling are available. This is a significant
share of the current 10BASE-T user base.
Abstract: Changes and additions to the 100BASE-T portion of IEEE Std 802.3 are
provided to specify an additional 100 Mb/s transceiver type 100BASE-T, which
can support full duplex operation over two pairs of Category 3 or better

Abstract: This local area network (LAN) standard deals with all elements of the
token-passing bus access method and its associated physical signaling and
media technologies. To facilitate interconnection of stations by way of a
LAN using the token-passing bus access method, this standard specifies the
characteristics of the transmission medium; the signaling method used; the
frame formats transmitted; the actions of a station upon receipt of a frame;
the services provided at the conceptual interface between the Medium Access
Control (MAC) sublayer and the Logical Link Control (LLC) sublayer; and the
actions, entities and values used by management. There are four medium
characteristics and signaling methods: 5 and 10 Mb/s phase-coherent FSK; 1,
5, and 10 Mb/s broadband; 10 and 20 Mb/s fiberoptic; and 1 Mb/s phase-
continuous FSK.

History: PAR APP: Nov 28, 1987, BD APP: Dec 6, 1990, ANSI APP: May 30, 1991
Project Scope: The Standard will define a Dual Bus subnetwork incorporating a
shared Medium physical layer of two unidirectioonal buses, a non-isochronous
media access control sublayer based on Distributed Queueing and an
isochronous media access control sublayer based on centralized time slot
allocation. The standard will allow for bridges to interconnect two or more
Dual Bus subnetworks to form a Metropolitan Area Network (MAN). The Dual Bus
subnetwork and MAN shall be capable both of operating in the public
telecommunications network environment and of incorporation in the public
network structure, and shall meet the operations, administration,
maintenance and performance requirements of this environment for criteria
such as reliability, availablity and security. The Dual Bus subnetworks and
MAN shall operate at selected rates exceeding 1 Mbps and consistent with
public network rates. The Dual Bus subnetworks and MAN shall be capable of
operating over areas in excess of 50 kilometers in diameter. The
performance and efficiency shall be essentially independent of subnetwork
size and rate.
Project Purpose: The purpose of the standard is to enable public network
providers to offer Metropolitan Area Network service. The services to be
provided include telephony, high speed and high quality isochronous service,
ISDN access and high speed and high quality packet service such as LAN
interconnection, host interconnection, and workstation connection across a
metropolitan area. The standard will use the installed and planned base
of publioc digital transmission equipment. This will include media such as
optical fibre accessed through standard physical interfaces including CCITT
G.703.
Abstract: This standard is part of a family of standards for local area
networks (LANs) and metropolitan area networks (MANs) that deal with the
Physical and Data Link Layers as defined by the ISO Open Systems
Interconnection Reference Model. It defines a high-speed shared medium
access protocol for use over a dual, counterflowing, unidirectional bus
subnetwork. The Physical Layer and Distributed Queue Dual Bus (DQDB) Layer
are required to support a Logical Link Control (LLC) Sublayer by means of a
connectionless Medium Access Control (MAC) Sublayer service in a manner
consistent with other IEEE 902 networks. Additional DQDB Layer functions are
specified as a framework for other services. These additional functions will
support Isochronous Service Users and Connection-Oriented Data Service
users, but their implementation is not required for conformance.

Abstract: This standard specifies the design, installation, and test parameters
for broadband cable medium. The medium supports the communication of IEEE
802.3b, IEEE 802.4, video, and narrowband radio frequency (RF) modem
devices. The broadband bus topology consists of amplifiers, coaxial cable,
and directional couplers that create a full duplex directional medium.
Inbound signals flow from user outlet transmitters to a central headend
location. The headend processes the signals and then transmits the signals
via an outbound path to all user outlets. The medium utilizes frequency
division multiplexing (FDN), which supports the simultaneous coexistence of
services. Each service is assigned a unique inbound and outbound channel
frequency.

Project Scope: This standard will specify procedures for P, C, B and D channel
services for interworking between IEEE 802.9 Access Units. This standard
will specify the Access Unit Architectural Model and Recommended procedures
to enable the provisioning to support P, C, B and D Channel Services for
interworking across an Access Unit which serves one 802.9 subnetwork, for
the purpose of connecting to integrated services workstations connected to
another 802.9 subnetwork, served by the latter IEEE 802.9 Access Unit. As
part of this work topic, the minumum/optical MIB elements for the Access
Unit required to effect AU to AU interworking will be specified. With the
access unit's dual role as both an agent to a LAN manager and an agent to
the WAN manager, the necessary procedures to coordinate the AU will also be
specified in the course of this work.
Project Purpose: Since the application users will find it necessary to
construct a network consisting of multiple IEEE 802.9 subnetworks (each
consisting of an access unit with its subtending integrated services
workstations), it is important that an architectural model and a common set
of procedures be defined to facilitate open systems interworking rather than

Project Scope: To define a standard for services, protocols, data formats, and
interfaces that will allow secure IEEE 802 LAN products to interoperate.
IEEE 802.10 has specified three areas for standardization: Secure Data
Exchange, Key Management, and Security Management, and the objects necessary
to manage each protocol. The goals of each of these areas of SILS are to
be as independent as possible of any particular encryption algorithm, such
as DES or RSA, and of the transmission media. The work in each area is
based on the OSI Seven Layer model (IS 7498) and on the OSI Security
Architecture (IS 7498/2). The Key Management Standard specifies a Layer 7
protocol that will provide secure automated management of the cryptographic
keys to be used by the Secure Data Exchange at Layer 2 or by Security
Management at Layer 7. The standard will draw on work already done for Key
Management by other standards groups. The ANSI X9.E9 group has written a
Key Management standard for use by the Banking Community. ECMA TC32/TG9 has
proposed a framework for secure applications, and the Secure Data Network
System (SDNS) project has developed a key management standard for use with
public key algorithms. The 802.10 Key Management standard will consider
each of these standards to determine if the standard or some form of the
standard is appropriate for use with LANs. The appendices to the SILS Key
Management standard will provide explanatory information for the standard.
The Rationale for Security Services Appendix will explain why the services
that Key Management provides are appropriate for the management of
cryptographic keys on LANs and how those services address the threats posed
to the security of automated key distribution on LANs. The Examples of
Algorithms Appendix will give an example of the use of Key Management
withparticular algorithms. The Philosophy of Key Management Appendix will
provide guidelines on the manual aspects of key management such as the
secure distribution of Initialization Keys.
Project Purpose: The purpose is threefold. First, the standard must specify
the minimally acceptable security services to be supported primarily by
encryption for IEEE 802 LANs. Second, the standard must define logical and
physical mechanisms for achieving these services; this includes the managed
objects required to support the processing to provide the services. Finally
and most important, the standard must maximize interoperability of products
in an open systems interconnection architecture.

Project Scope: To define a standard for services, protocols, data formats, and

IEEE 802.10 has specified three areas for standardization: Secure Data
Exchange, Key Management, and Security Management, and the objects necessary
to manage each protocol. The goals of each of these areas of SILS are to
be as independent as possible of any particular encryption algorithm, such
as DES or RSA, and of the transmission media. The work in each area is
based on the OSI Seven Layer model (IS 7498) and on the OSI Security
Architecture (IS 7498/2). The Security Management Standard will specify a
Layer 7 set of services, and if necessary a protocol, that will provide
secure management of the objects associated with the Secure Data Exchange
protocol, the Key Management protocol, and the Security Management protocol.
The standard will use any work in progress on Security Management. If, at
any time, a Security Management standard is developed by ISO, that standard
will be closely evaluated for use on LANs and comments will be submitted to
change the ISO standard rather than continuing the definition of security
management within 802.10. The approaches to be evaluated by 802.10 for
security management are the use of ISO, CMIP, Common Management Information
Protocol (DIS 9596/2), and the use of IEEE 802.1, Systems Management. The
use of the Secure Data Exchange to provide confidentiality and integrity for
CMIP or 802.1 will be explored. Also, 802.10 will investigate the
definition of a separate protocol that does not depend on the security
services of the Secure Data Exchange, but provides all the security services
required for secure management at Layer 7. The goals of the 802.10 Security
Management definition are to assure first that 802.10 objects can be managed
securely and second that the security management protocol could be used by
other protocols to manage their objects securely.
Project Purpose: The purpose is threefold. First, the standard must specify
the minimally acceptable security services to be supported primarily by
encryption for IEEE 802 LANs. Second, the standard must define logical and
physical mechanisms for achieving these services; this includes the managed
objects required to support the processing to provide the services. Finally
and most important, the standard must maximize interoperability of products
in an open systems interconnection architecture. Modern LANs provide users
connectivity to network resources. Distributed applications and shared
resources allow users easy access to the network data. The intended result
is that data is readily available to all users. However, as use of LAN
resources increases in commercial and military environments, the data
security threat increases. Manufacturing design data, financial analysis
data, and health data cannot be protected from modification, disclosure, or
unauthorized access without LAN security. The communciation required
between these systems cannot be achieved without interoperability of the
security mechanisms protecting these systems. To assure secure
interoperability, the SILS Security Management standard must consider the
issues of cryptography and of IEEE 802 LAN compatibility. The cryptography
issue is to define Security Management to be as independent of any
particular algorithm as possible. The issue of IEEE 802 LAN compatibility
is that the security mechanisms of Security Management should not require
changes to the existing IEEE 802 LAN standards. This should not become an
issue as Security Management could be defined either as a Layer 7 set of
service or as a Layer 7 protocol or could use the existing 802.1 System
Management protocol, so it would not affect the existing 802 protocol.

Project Scope: To develop a Medium Access Control (MAC) and Physical Layer
(PHY) specification for wireless connectivity for fixed, portable and moving
stations within a local area.
Project Purpose: To provide wireless connectivity to automatic machinery,
equipment or stations that require rapid deployment, which may be portable,

To offer a standard for use by regulatory bodies to standardize access to
one or more radio frequency bands for the purpose of local area
communication.
Abstract: The medium access control and physical characteristics for wireless
local area networks are specified in this standard, part of a series of
standards for local and metropolitan area networks. The medium access
control unit in this standard is designed to support physical layer units as
they may be adopted dependent on the availability of spectrum. This
standard contains three physical layer units: two radio units, both
operating in the 2400-2500 MHz band, and one baseband infrared unit. One
radio unit employs the frequency-hopping spread spectrum technique, and the
other employs the direct sequence spread spectrum technique.

History: PAR APP: Dec 9, 1997, BD APP: Sep 16, 1999, ANSI APP: Feb 11, 2000
Project Scope: The project will evaluate the possibility orf taking advantage
of the provisions for rate expansion that are in place on the current
standard PHYs. The 802.11 MAC defines a mechanism for operation of
stastions supporting different data rates in the same area. The current
802.11 standard already defines the basic rages of 1Mbit/s and 2 Mbit/s for
both Frequency Hopping *FH) and Direct Sequence (DS) PHYs. The two rates
are supported by having same header for both rates with length and rate
information passed in the header at the lowest ("basic") rate; then the body
of the packet is transmitted at the rate chosen and with the corresponding
modulation method. The header structure of the two PHYs already supports
passing rate information up to 4.5 Mbit/s (in 0.5 Mbit/s increments) for FH
and up to 25.5 Mbit/s (in 0.1 Mbit/s increments) for DS. The proposed PAR
targets further developing the provisions for enhanced data rate capability
of 802.11 networks. The 802.11 MAC incorporates already the interpretation
of this information and the computation of expected packet duration even if
the specific station does not support the rate at which the packet was sent.
The 802.11 MAC is compatible and will accommodate the higher PHY rates.
Project Purpose: To extend the performance and the range of applications of the
802.11 compatible networks in the 2.4 GHz band by increasing the data rate
achieveable by such devices. This technology will be beneficial for
improved access to fixed network LAN and internetwork infrastructure
(including access to other wireless LANs) via a network of access points, as
well as creation of high performance ad-hoc networks. The purpose of
802.11a is also for higher data rates, however, that project is for
operation in the 5 GHz band, whereas this project is for operation in the
2.4 GHz band.

History: PAR APP: Mar 30, 2000
Project Scope: To develop recommended practices for an Inter-Access Point
Protocol (IAPP) which provides the necessary capabilities to achieve multi-
vendor Access Point interoperability across a Distribution System supporting
IEEE P802.11 Wireless LAN Links. This IAPP will be developed for the
following environment(s): (1) A Distribution System consisting of IEEE 802
LAN components supporting an IETF IP environment. (2) Others as deemed
appropriate. This Recommended Practice Document shall support the IEEE
P802.11 standard revision(s).
Project Purpose: IEEE P802.11 specifies the MAC and PHY layers of a Wireless
LAN system and includes the basic architecture of such systems, including
the concepts of Access Points and Distribution Systems. Implementation of
these concepts where purposely not defined by P802.11 because there are many
ways to create a Wireless LAN system. Additionally many of the possible
implementation approaches involve concepts from higher network layers.
While this leaves great flexibility in Distributions System and Access Point
functional design, the associated cost is that physical Access Point devices
from different vendors are unlikely to inter-operate across a Distribution
System due to the different approaches taken to Distribution System design.
As P802.11 based systems have grown in popularity, this limitation has
become an impediment to WLAN market growth. At the same time it has become
clear that there are a small number of Distribution System environments that
comprise the bulk of the commercial WLAN system installations. This project
proposes to specify the necessary information that needs to be exchanged
between Access Points to support the P802.11 DS functions. The information
exchanges required will be specified for, one or more distribution Systems;
in a manner sufficient to enable the implementation of Distribution Systems
containing Access Points from different vendors which adhere to the
recommended practices.

Project Scope: To enhance the Demand Priority MAC to provide full duplex
operation when connecting two nodes (the term nodes includes
bridges/switches). Define an optional burst mode capability which allows an
end node to send multiple packets per grant up to a defined time limit.
This will include definition of configuration field bits in the training
packet to indicate availability of full duplex mode and burst mode and
definition of related network management objects. Full duplex mode will be
compatible with the existing and future simplex physical layers.
Project Purpose: To support full duplex data transmission between switches,
between an end node and a switch, and between a pair of end nodes. Full
duplex data transmission provides for more efficient operation, especially
in cases where the data exchange is symmetrical. Also, to support burst
mode which improves efficiency for half duplex operation.

coexistence between multipoint systems and point-to-point systems in the
frequency range 10-66 GHz, with a focus on the range 23.5 to 43.5 GHz. Two
types of point-to-point systems will be considered: those used by fixed BWA
operators and those used as individually assigned links, commonly licensed

Project Scope: This project covers development of a Recommended practice for
the design and coordinated deployment of broadband wireless access (BWA)
systems to minimize interference so as to maximize system performance and/or
service quality. This practice will provide for coexistence using frequency
and spatial separation and will cover three areas. First, it will recommend
limits of in-band and out-of-band emissions from BWA transmitters through
parameters including radiated power, spectral masks and antenna patterns.
Second, it will recommend receiver tolerance parameters, including noise
floor degradation and blocking performance, for intereference received from
other BWA systems as well as from other terrestrial and satellite systems.
Third, it will provide coordination parameters, including band plans,
separation distances, and power flux density limits, to enable successful
deployment of BWA systems with tolerable interference. The scope includes
interference between systems deployed across geographic boundaries in the
same frequency band and systems deployed in the same geographic area in
different frequency bands (including different systems, deployed by a single
license-holder in sub-bands of the licensees authorized bandwidth). The
scope does not cover coexistence issues due to intra-system frequency re-use
wihin the operator's licensed band, and it does not consider the impact of
interference created by BWA systems on non-BWA terrestrial and satellite
systems.
Project Purpose: The purpose of this recommended practice is to provide
coexistence guidelines to license holders, service providers, deployment
groups, and system integrators. The equipment parameters contained wihtin
this practice will benefit equipment and component vendors and industry
associations by providing design targets. The benefits of this practice
will include: Coexistence of different systems with higher assurance that
system performance objectives will be met; Minimal need for case-by-case
interference studies and coordination between operators to resolve
interference issues; Preservation of a favorable electromagnetic environment
for deployment and operation of BWA systems, including future systems
compliant to the 802.16 interoperability standard; Optimization of coverage
and spectrum utilization; Cost-effective system deployment.

Project Scope: This standard specifies the physical layer and medium access
control layer of the air interface of interoperable fixed point-to-
multipoint (and, in license-exempt bands, optional mesh topology) broadband
wireless access systems (e.g., those supporting data rates of DS1/E1 or
greater). The specification enables access to data, video, and voice
services with a specified quality of service in licensed bands designated
for public network access and license-exempt bands. It applies to systems
operating between 2 and 11 GHz, where such services are permitted. This
Amendment expands the scope of the IEEE Standard 802.16 by extending it to
bands between 2-11 GHz, whereas the scope of the original project was
limited to 10-66 GHz.
Project Purpose: To enable rapid worldwide deployment of innovative, cost-
effective and interoperable multi-vendor broadband wireless access products.
To facilitate competition in broadband access by providing wireless
alternatives to wireline broadband access. To facilitate coexistence
studies, provide mechanisms for coexistence with other license-exempt band

Project Scope: This standard specifies the medium access control layer and
physical layers of the air interface of interoperable fixed point-to-
multipoint broadband wireless access systems. The specification enables
transport of data, video, and voice services. Physical layers are specified
for both licensed and license-exempt bands. This Amendment expands the scope
of the original project by extending it to license-exempt bands (thereby
defining the Wireless High-Speed Unlicensed Metropolitan Area Network
[WirelessHUMAN™] Standard). It specifies the physical layer and medium
access control layer of the air interface of interoperable fixed broadband
wireless metropolitan area network systems, including point-to-multipoint.
The standard enables access to data, video, and voice services with quality
of service in unlicensed (i.e., license-exempt) bands designated for public
network access. It will focus on the 5-6 GHz range and may be applied to
unlicensed bands between 2 and 11 GHz. It will address strategies for
coexistence with other unlicensed applications. The project will utilize or
modify applicable elements from the following: · MAC: IEEE 802.16 · PHY:

Project Scope: Provision of a small number of Ethernet type values for
prototype and experimental use. Provision of a mechanism for vendor
assignment of protocol identifiers for use with proprietary protocols.
Project Purpose: The existing Ethernet Type number space is a finite resource.
In order to develop protocols that will use an Ethernet Type value as a
protocol identifier, it is necessary for vendors to apply for type values
from this limited number space, both for development purposes and for
assignment to the final protocol. This can lead to wastage of the number
space for no useful purpose. This amendment to IEEE Standard 802 will allow
prototype and experimental protocols to be developed without consuming type
values, and will also provide a means whereby protocol developers can assign
permanent protocol identifier values without consuming type values.

Abstract: This standard is part of a family of local area network (LANs) and
metropolitan area network (MANs) that deals with the physical and data link
layers as defined by the ISO Open Systems Interconnection Reference Model.
The functions, features, protocol, and services of the Logical Link Control
(LLC) sublayer, which constitutes the top sublayer in the data link layer of
the ISO/IEC 8802 Local Area Network Protocol, are described. The services
required of, or by, the LLC sublayer at the logical interfaces with the
network layer, the MAC sublayer, and the LLC sublayer management function
are specified. The protocol data unit (PDU) structure for data communication
systems is defined using bit-oriented procedures, as are three types of
operation for data communication between service access points. In the first
type of operation, PDUs are exchanged between LLCs without the need for the
establishment of a data link connection. In the second type of operation, a
data link connection is established between two LLCs prior to any exchange
of information-bearing PDUs. In the third type of operation, PDUs are
exchanged between LLCs without the need for the establishment of a data link
connection, but stations are permitted to both send data and request the
return of data simultaneously.

Abstract: This Local and Metropolitan Area Network standard, ISO/IEC 8802-5:
1995, is part of a family of local area network (LAN) standards dealing with
the physical and data link layers as defined by the ISO Open System
Interconnection Reference Model. Its purpose is to provide compatible
interconnection of data processing equipment by means of a local area
network using the token-passing ring access method. The frame format,
including delimiters, addressing, and frame check sequence, are defined, as
are medium access control (MAC) frames, timers, and priority stacks. The MAC
protocol is defined. The finite-state machine and state tables are
supplemented with a prose description of the algorithms. The physical layer
(PHY) functions of symbol encoding and decoding, symbol time, and latency
buffering are defined. The services provided by the MAC to the station
management (SMT) and the services provided by the PHY to SMT and the MAC are
described. These services are defined in terms of service primitives and
associated parameters. The 4 and 16 Mb/s, shielded twisted pair attachment
of the station to the medium, including the medium interface connector (MIC)
are also defined. The applications environment for the LAN is intended to be
commercial and light industrial. The use of token ring LANs in home and
heavy industrial environments, while not precluded, has not been considered
in the development of the standard. A Protocol Implementation Conformance
Statement (PICS) proforma is provided as an annex to the standard.

Abstract: This standard is part of a family of standards for local area
networks (LANs) and metropolitan area networks (MANs) that deals with the
Physical and Data Link Layers as defined by the International Organization
for Standardization (ISO) Open Systems Interconnection Reference Model. A
high-speed shared medium access protocol for use over a dual,
counterflowing, unidirectional bus subnetwork is defined. The Physical Layer
and Distributed Queue Dual Bus (DQDB) Layer are required to support a
Logical Link Control (LLC) Sublayer by means of a connectionless Media
Access Control (MAC) Sublayer service in a manner consistent with other IEEE
802 networks. Additional DQDB Layer functions are specified as a framework
for other services. These additional functions will support Isochronous
Service Users and Connection-Oriented Data Service Users, but their
implementation is not required for conformance.

History: PAR APP: Sep 16, 1999, BD APP: Jul 6, 2001, ANSI APP: Nov 1, 2001
Project Scope: This project covers development of a Recommended Practice for
the design and coordinated deployment of fixed broadband wireless access
(BWA)systems operating from 10-66 GHz (with a focus on 23.5-43.5 GHz)in
order to minimize interference so as to maximize system performance and/or
service quality. This practice will provide for coexistence using frequency
and spatial separation and will cover three areas. First,it will recommend
limits of in-band and out-of-band emissions from BWA transmitters through
parameters including radiated power,spectral masks and antenna patterns.
Second,it will recommend receiver tolerance parameters, including noise
floor degradation performance, for interference received from other BWA
systems. Third,it will provide coordination parameters,including separation
distances,and power flux density limits,to enable successful deployment of
BWA systems with tolerable interference. The scope includes interference
between systems deployed across geographic boundaries in the same frequency
band and systems deployed in the same geographic area in different frequency
bands (including different systems deployed by a single license-holder in
sub-bands of the licensees authorized bandwidth). The scope does not cover
coexistence issues due to intrasystem frequency re-use within the operator
's licensed band,and it does not consider the impact of interference created
by BWA systems on non-BWA terrestrial and satellite systems.
Project Purpose: The purpose of this recommended practice is to provide
coexistence guidelines to license holders,service providers,deployment
groups,and system integrators.The equipment parameters contained within this
practice will benefit equipment and component vendors and industry
associations by providing design targets. The benefits of this practice will
include: · Coexistence of different systems with higher assurance that
system performance objectives will be met. · Minimal need for case-by-case
interference studies and coordination between operators to resolve
interference issues. · Preservation of a favorable electromagnetic
environment for deployment and operation of BWA systems, including future
systems compliant to IEEE 802.16 interoperability standards. · Improved
spectrum utilization. · Cost-effective system deployment.
