Subject: +++ EC review +++ a draft IEEE 802 LMSC submission to Qatar CRA
To: STDS-802-SEC@LISTSERV.IEEE.ORG <STDS-802-SEC@listserv.ieee.org>

 

Dear colleagues,

I would like to request the review of the following draft IEEE 802 LMSC submission by Monday, 16 September 2024, A.O.E, before asking the EC to consider approval of the submission tentatively via a letter ballot.

On 25 August 2024, Qatar's Communications Regulatory Authority (CRA) launched a public consultation on its position paper entitled "Position Paper on IoT and M2M in the State of Qatar".  , The administration proposes to position Wi-Fi (2.4 GHz, 5 GHz, 6 GHz), Bluetooth, Zigbee, and Z-Wave as the same category of access technologies for local area networks (there is no mention about IEEE 802.11ah (sub 1 GHz), UWB, and Wi-SUN though).  

A couple of individuals prepared a response to ask the administration to consider taking into account IEEE 802.11ah, IEEE 802.15.4 UWB, and IEEE 802.15.4 Wi-SUN in the position paper. The submission was reviewed and approved by IEEE 802.18 on 12 September 2024 with the following voting results:  17 Yes, 0 No, 1 Abstain.
