Re: stds-802-mobility: New Proposed for IEEE 802.20 March Plenary Schedule
Bob
I support your proposed agenda with a minor modification. I think
we should order the sessions on tuesday afternoon
according to where we have seen the most progress since the
Vancouver meeting. Here is what I propose for tuesday afternoon:
Evaluation Criteria review and contributions 1:00pm – 2:15pm
Break 2:15pm – 2:45pm
Traffic Models review and contributions 2:15pm – 3:15pm
Channel Models review and contributions 3:15pm – 4:15pm
