[802SEC] +++ ECM: IEEE P802.18 response to Ofcom consultation +++



 

Dear EC Members,

 

At the January IEEE 802 Wireless Interim, members of the RR-TAG developed and approved responses to question from the Ofcom consultation on Fixed Wireless Spectrum Strategy. Although fixed wireless technologies are not represented in IEEE 802 standards, the spectrum implications potentially could have an impact, requiring us to respond.

 

The consultation: https://mentor.ieee.org/802.18/dcn/18/18-18-0003-00-0000-ofcom-fixed-wireless-spectrum-strategy.pdf

 

The group approved https://mentor.ieee.org/802.18/dcn/18/18-18-0009-02-0000-ofcom-questions-and-answers-fixed-wireless-spectrum-strategy.ppt, by a vote of 10/0/0. An r3 was created to help voters to navigate through the consequential responses. No changes were made to the approved text.

 

Before submittal, these approved responses will be put into the Ofcom consultation format.

 

Mr. Paul Nikolich has therefore delegated the conduct of the EC electronic ballot on the following motion to me.  As the closing date for the consultation is February 1, 2018, I am asking for an expedited review and approval.

 

Motion: Approve the responses in document https://mentor.ieee.org/802.18/dcn/18/18-18-0009-03-0000-ofcom-questions-and-answers-fixed-wireless-spectrum-strategy.ppt as the IEEE 802 input to the Ofcom Fixed Wireless Strategy consultation, to be submitted to Ofcom on or before February 1, 2018 in their format.

 

Approved in the TAG 10/0/0

 

Moved by Rich Kennedy

Seconded by Adrian Stephens

 

Start of ballot:        Tuesday 23rd January 2018

Close of Early ballot: Sunday 28th January, 11:59PM ET

 

Early close: As required in subclause 4.1.2 'Voting rules' of the IEEE 802 LAN/MAN Standards Committee (LMSC) Operations Manual, this is notice that, to ensure the release is provided in a timely manner, this ballot may close early once sufficient responses are received to clearly decide a matter. Sufficient responses to clearly decide this matter will be based on the required majority for a motion under subclause 7.1.1 'Actions requiring approval by a majority vote' item (h), 'Other motions brought to the floor by members (when deemed in order by the Sponsor Chair)' of the IEEE 802 LAN/MAN Standards Committee (LMSC) Policies and Procedures.

 

Thank you.

 

Rich Kennedy

IEEE 802.18 Chair
