RE: stds-802-mobility: FW: [802SEC] new 802.16 PARs for consideration in November

["Chickinsky, Alan" <AChickinsky@northropgrumman.com>]

I have a problem  with item #3.  When I go to the IEEE Working Group 802.16 on Broadband Wireless Access site(http://www.ieee802.org/16/mobile/index.html) there are no minutes.  Section 5.4.1.3 of the IEEE 802 LMSC operating rules state there are to be minutes.  Where are the minutes?

 

In the operation procedures " Procedure 2, PROCEDURE FOR PARS" part 3, sub parapgraph 2 states " The PAR must be presented in summary at the opening Plenary meeting to the general 802 membership. Supporting material must be available in sufficient detail for members of other Working Groups to understand if they have an interest in the proposed PAR, i.e., if they would like to contribute/participate in the proposed work, or identify if there is conflict with existing or anticipated work in their current Working Group. It is highly recommended that a tutorial be given at a previous Plenary session for major new work items."

 

Based on this paragraph, I request-

1- The group identifies the supporting documentation, not a list of contributions.  There is no way to determine which contribtions were accepted, rejected or modified.

2- We get this tutorial so there is no conflict with the mobility study group. 

 

The standard in section #3, does not address the security issues.  It ignores all the security work done under 802.11.  This lack of knowledge is clear by the missing reference to 802.1x

MBWA ECSG Participants

 

At the Cheju meeting the 802.16 Mobile Wireless MAN Study Group the 802 Mobile Broadband Wireless Access Executive Committee Study Group has submitted a PAR for November. The Working Groups have until 5 pm on Tuesday, November 12 to provide comments. The referenced documents are available here:

Subject: [802SEC] new 802.16 PARs for consideration in November

 

 

Dear SEC:

 

I am pleased to notify you that 802.16 is submitting the following three PARs for approval in November:

 

(1) P1802.16.2: 10-66 GHz Test Suite Structure and Test Purposes <http://ieee802.org/16/docs/02/80216-02_45.pdf>

 

This is the second of the three conformance standards we plan for the 10-66 GHZ air interface. The first is moving rapidly; the PAR was approved on August 15 and we have already initiated a Call for Comments on a 161-page proposed draft. We would like to open the new PAR in December because we expect input before the March meeting.

 

 

(2) P802.16d: Detailed System Profiles for 2-11 GHz <http://ieee802.org/16/docs/02/80216-02_47.pdf>

 

This project, an amendment to IEEE Std 802.16, is the lower-frequency parallel to our 802.16c project, which passed Sponsor Ballot and which we expect to be approved by RevCom in December.

 

 

(3) P802.16e: Physical Layer and Medium Access Control Modifications for Mobile Operation in Licensed Bands below 6 GHz

<http://ieee802.org/16/docs/02/80216-02_48.pdf> (PAR)

<http://ieee802.org/16/docs/02/80216-02_49.pdf> (Five Criteria)

 

This PAR, for an amendment to IEEE 802.16, is the work of the 802.16 Mobile Wireless MAN Study Group. It is the next step in the development of the 802.16 air interface, following up the 2-11 specification in 802.16a, which has passed Sponsor Ballot (pending recirculation).

 

We are open to comments from other Working Groups and ask that they be delivered to us, per the custom, by 5 pm on Tuesday of the Plenary Week.

 

Regards,

 

Roger
