  7. Introduction • Purpose • Improve the working relationship between the technical experts and the regulatory specialists, especially when it comes to critical technical issues • Scope • The group will review new regulatory changes or impending changes affecting 802.11 standards • Each meeting will focus on the most critical issue at the time • Critical Issue Focus • Direct impact on IEEE 802.11 current and future standards • Response/Input deadlines • Coordination with IEEE 802.18 (RR-TAG) • Coordination with the Wi-Fi Alliance • Outputs from this group must go through 802.18 Rich Kennedy, self

  8. DSRC Coexistence Tiger Team • What should be the outcome from the group? • Set of coexistence requirements for 802.11 in the 5 GHz band with ITS safety of life and property communications in the 5.9 GHz band • Form a group to provide a formal interface to other organizations in the automotive industry, NHTSA, DOT and other ITS players • What is the required milestone timeline • Dependent upon the FCC et al, progress on the rollout of the standards, technologies and laws • Outcome of experiments prior to rulemaking; proof of concepts • CAMP/DOT testing and validating • Updates from Los Angeles • FCC letter approved by 802.18 and ExCom • Sent to FCC (Julius Knapp) on 2/6/14 Rich Kennedy, self

  9. ETSI ERM TG11 and ETSI BRAN • BRAN • Adding additional measures to ensure DFS cannot be bypassed • TG11 • New test methodology to simplify that in EN 300 328v1.8.1 • Heard a proposal from the Industrial Automation industry to add a “Central Control Point” to the 2.4 GHz band • Analysis not complete (802.11b-only) • Will bring completed version in February • Wi-Fi and Bluetooth industries responded with questions and concerns with the IA proposal Rich Kennedy, self

  10. Globalstar NPRM • Proceeding IB Docket 13-213 • NPRM FCC 13-147 • Released November 1, 2013 • Still not published in the Federal Register • More than 100 days so far • Is there a reason why it has not been published? Rich Kennedy, self

  11. LTE-U Discussion • RAN TSG#63 will review in March • We should prepare a position statement • For any FCC action • For liaison to RAN63 or 64? Rich Kennedy, self

  12. Other Regulatory Updates • First R&O in 5 GHz bands changes expected 1H14 • Re-open 5600 to 5650 MHz with firmware security • Extend U-NII-3 to 5850 MHz (was 5825) • Possibly U-NII-1 band as well • 60 GHz onboard aircraft to be considered • ETSI ERM TG11 • EN 300 328 v1.9.1 to be ready to start approval process in February • Plan to have it ready for voluntary use by January 1, 2015 • 5 GHz bands in China Rich Kennedy, self

  13. Any Other Actual Business • Plan going forward • Continue DSRC Coexistence TT; IEEE 802.18 and ExCom approvals required • Response to Globalstar NPRM • Follow ETSI ERM and BRAN • 5 GHz band activities • TV bands auctions • Other Geo-location database opportunities • Other dynamic spectrum allocation work • Dyspan meeting in April 1 – 4 in McClean, VA • My plans Rich Kennedy, self
