Call for Proposals - r1
All,
A member noticed two typing mistakes
that are fixed in this version.
Thank you,
Jerry Upton
All 802.20,
The IEEE 802.20 Working Group is
requesting submissions of proposals for the initial 802.20 Specification.
This Call for Proposals is issued based upon the approval of a Technology
Selection Process document and completion of other prerequisite work items.
The members of the working group approved the Technology Selection Process
document at September session #16.
All Proposal Packages shall
be sent to the Chair of IEEE 802.20 for posting on the working group’s
website no later than close of business on October 31, 2005. The
Chair will acknowledge all received Proposal Packages by email.
Proposals shall not be accepted
before October 16, 2005. All Proposal Packages are due no later than October
28, 2005. Any Proposal Package received by the Chair after
October 28, 2005 shall not be considered by the working group at the November
Plenary, 802.20 Session #17. The Technology Selection Process shall start
at the November IEEE 802 Plenary.
A Proposal Package is defined
as follows: A Proposal Package is a set of documents and presentations
submitted for consideration of the 802.20 Working Group. A Proposal
Package shall contain at minimum, the following:
1. A Summary Classification
Statement: This shall state whether the proposal is for a TDD Technology
or a FDD Technology or both. The statement shall state
whether the proposal is Complete or Partial and whether the proposal is
Compliant or Not Compliant. Complete, Partial, Compliant and Not Compliant
are defined in Section 2.0 of the approved IEEE 802.20 Technology Selection
Process document (IEEE P802.20-PD-10.)
2. Technology Overview: The Technology Overview shall
consist of a Technology Overview Document, and a Technology Overview Presentation.
The Technology Overview Document included with the package shall
provide a high-level description of all elements of the submitted design.
Format and presentation of the Technology Overview Document should
be consistent with a high-quality technical white paper, or a report submitted
for publication to an IEEE Journal. The Technology Overview Presentation
shall consist of a set of slides, with included speaker’s notes describing
in detail the salient features of the submitted technology. All slide
presentations shall be formatted in accordance with accepted IEEE 802.20
document templates.
3. A proposed Draft Technology Specification: This shall
specify the core technology submitted for consideration and shall be written
and formatted in a manner consistent with other IEEE 802 Specifications.
The Technology Specification shall contain a detailed description
of the proposed specification of physical and medium access layer of an
air interface for the 802.20 standard. The detail and style of the
text should be consistent with IEEE 802 draft standards documents.
4. A Systems Requirements Compliance Report: The Requirements
Compliance Report shall contain a statement of Compliance Status either
Compliant, or Not Compliant. The Proposal Compliance Report shall
contain a Requirements Compliance Matrix, as defined and shown in Annex
1 of the IEEE 802.20 Technology Section Process document. A Requirements
Compliance Report may also contain textual clarification of the Proposal
Type, Compliance Status, or one or more Compliance Matrix Elements. These
may be presented as notes for the Requirements Compliance Matrix, or as
separate discussion paragraphs, in the case of the Proposal Type, or Compliance
Status.
5. Technology Performance and Evaluation Criteria Report:
The Technology Performance Report is a document containing simulation
results of performance, consistent with the approved IEEE 802.20 Evaluation
Criteria, and Channel Models documents. The Technology Performance
Report shall contain separate sections to demonstrate that the technology
meets all claimed performance requirements of the approved IEEE 802.20
Systems Requirements Document, using the methods specified in the IEEE
802.20 Evaluation Criteria Document, PD-09. The Evaluation Report 1, as
defined is the Evaluation Criteria document, shall be submitted with the
Proposal Package due no later that October 28, 2005. The Evaluation Report
2 is optional for the November Plenary. However it shall be available at
the beginning of the January session. Technology Selection shall start
at the November Plenary. Data may be organized as appendices to validate
the results presented. Proposals must specify and justify any deviation
from the evaluation methodology or any evaluation criteria that are not
applicable (N/A) to them.
6. Technology Performance Presentation: The Technology
Performance Presentation shall consist of a slide set, consistent with
the Technology Performance Report that describes in high-level form, the
results of the evaluation of the technology. The Technology Performance
Presentation slides shall be formatted in accordance with accepted IEEE
802.20 document templates.
All adopted and approved working
group documents are posted on the IEEE 802.20 website under working group
permanent documents. Please review these documents and the Technology Selection
Process document before creating and submitting a Proposal Package.
It is requested that an Intent
to Submit a Proposal be sent to the 802.20 reflector by October 14, 2005
for agenda planning purposes.
As safe guard for receipt of the
proposals, please send all Proposal Packages to both email addresses listed
below for the Chair of 802.20. Also please note, the Chair will be
on holiday from September 28 to October 17, 2005 and will have no email
access.
