[802SEC] +++ ECM +++ Approval of 5G/IMT-2020 SC +++ Early Close

Dear EC Members,

 

Paul has delegated the conduct of the EC electronic ballot on the following motion to me.

 

======

Background

 

At the January IEEE 802 meeting there was a discussion on the 5G standardization landscape and in particular a review by Roger Marks on the IMT process (EC-16-10).  The discussion resulted in the creation of a draft scope for an EC standing committee to create a report for the EC to guide IEEE 802.  This motion is the formalization of the SC as a type 2 EC subgroup.   The creation of a new subgroup requires majority approval rate, as per section 5.6 of the IEEE 802 LAN/MAN Standards Committee (LMSC) Policies & Procedures.

I am declaring an early close (see below).

 

Regards,

Glenn

o    as a set of technologies,

o    or as one or more technologies within a proposal from external bodies (e.g., 3GPP)

During its lifetime,  to act as the communication point with other IEEE organizations on this topic.
