31 January 2019 doc. : IEEE 802. 18 -19/0012 r 01 U. S. Do. T RFC on V 2 X Ad Hoc -1 of 2 • • A main point can be discerned from the questions, who owns/operates V 2 X over time? • For example, what about the meta data considering security and privacy (and ownership) of this meta data? And how is it dependent on who is gathering and using it? • Private or government, and then what is the data used for overall? This point goes beyond the 9 questions, summarized to 2 sub-points: • • • Do. T may not know what else should be considered with today’s changing environment, beyond the current direction they have been heading. Is there a question on who owns/operates the roadside infrastructure over time? (Related to above. ) • • A - How will the meta data be dealt with over time? B - Ownership of the infrastructure and how will that all work? IEEE 802 is concerned with more than just the radios. Though could Do. T purchase this infrastructure as an option no matter what or who’s technology is? (Generally, Govnmt would like to own and control of all this. ) If a new technology does comes into play, then where does the telcom operator come in? Agenda Slide 12 Jay Holcomb (Itron)

T up to date on this evolution. Q#2 is a prime question for this. • We can bring some in from the 5 GAA waiver also. Running through the 9 questions. • • • #0 – The beyond the 9 questions, and have an owner for this #1 – assigned #2 – assigned #3 – We should answer, some overlap with #2, owner of #2 will look at this one. #4 – This is prime for 11 bd, and overlap with #1, owner of #1 will look at this one. #5 – How is. 11 p and. 11 bd viewed? • • Some qualification will be needed on how the question is interpreted. #6 - Maybe easier to answer #7 - This is very related to #0 #8 - Maybe easier to answer, but keep high level. #9 - Not a clear question. Need to restate interoperability is needed, assigned for a couple of sentences Some of the questions may end up not answered we will see. May have further input Thursday on questions to focus on. There was no additional input in the end. As brought up before, we could consider input from the 802. 11 co-ex standing committee. Agenda Slide 13 Jay Holcomb (Itron)

31 January 2019 doc. : IEEE 802. 18 -19/0012 r 01 5 GAA Waiver to Allow ITS C-V 2 X - reference 2 • Thinking potential comments, any specific points we should consider? • There are 20 comments from phase 1 testing; most say to not divide the spectrum, where the waiver is asking for a division. • Is this a waiver or petition to start a rule making? • • • Some are questioning this approach. • Where it asks incumbents like DSRC to vacate this band is not a (normal) waiver. • Could it be followed by a more aggressive waiver request with further disruptions? 802. 11 – Wi. Fi access to the band. • Disruptive to both approaches, detect and vacate and re-channelization. • Also would hinder other V-C 2 X technologies that are being development. TG 802. 11 bd, is relevant to this and has Pros on sharing in the band better than C-V 2 X. (They are not meeting between now 11 Jan. ) • James Lepp has a document with 4 main parts/areas moving forward, • • https: //mentor. ieee. org/802. 11/dcn/18/11 -18 -1945 -01 -0 ngv-work-breakdown-for-p 802 -11 bd. pptx Why can’t the experimental license accomplish their need? • No input from anyone to comment on this, so will hold for now.

31 January 2019 doc. : IEEE 802. 18 -19/0012 r 01 5 GAA Waiver to Allow ITS C-V 2 X -2 of 3 • From last week: • Look at footnotes of 47&48, why this is a wavier, not cont. as exp. license or a rule making. • There is a test report from 5 GAA, and their summary is they are doing better than DSRC. • Annex D has their test results (link added in 18 -18/0152 r 01) • Appendix C has summary of most all tests that are going on. • Appendix D, these should be they rules for the wavier; e. g. 5925 -5975 for CV 2 X only. • In the long term there is no sharing. • Seems DOT has a connection in some of these test sites.

31 January 2019 doc. : IEEE 802. 18 -19/0012 r 01 Presidential Memorandum on Developing a Sustainable Spectrum Strategy for America's Future -2 of 2 • How can we support this policy? • From plenary: Members were not seeing it from 802. 18, though asked to review later. • Also, maybe the EC could do a Press Release on some of the topics. • • Here is a start of a response leveraging from IEEE SA Spectrum Statement. https: //mentor. ieee. org/802. 18/dcn/18/18 -18 -0147 -00 -0000 -ieee-802 -draft-press-releasesupporting-us-spectrum-strategy. docx • • • 802. 18 discussed in some depth and still not seeing anything from 802. 18. This is not like a public comment solicitation that. 18 would normally respond to. Question asked, what value will we add to the process, as we are not part of the executive branches being asked for input? We agree there is a critical need. This is something we should keep our eyes on. May not have immediate impact, but could go off the rail some time. It does have some connection to the IEEE SA position statement they just released on unlicensed spectrum allocation and management. Should a response come from IEEE SA or even IEEE USA? This could be an opportunity for us to remind people that we need a balance between license and unlicensed spectrum allocation. • • • Agenda Slide 29 Jay Holcomb (Itron)

The attached report provides a detailed summary of the testing methodology, measurements, and observations.

31 January 2019 doc. : IEEE 802. 18 -19/0012 r 01 General Discussion Items -4 b of 6 • • Phase I testing of prototype U-NII-4 devices -2 of 3 As summarized in the report, we found the prototype devices reliably detected DSRC signals. The report includes the results of the evaluation of the Wi-Fi sharing techniques since one of the proposed band sharing methods would require re-channelization of the DSRC spectrum. In brief, the test results show that the prototype U-NII-4 devices were able to detect a co-channel DSRC signal and implement post detection steps as claimed by the submitters. • Knowing history, can we get agreement on points to comment on? • What would they be? • • • Detect and vacate mentioned above, is not covering if there is any harmful interference. Mitigation seems to still be open. DOT will be the judge on safety of transportation. They get the say what is needed. The report is just a testing report, and not on the safety of transportation. O’Reily’s comment does not consider there is CV 2 X, C-V 2 X, …. …. coming along now, that is being discussed elsewhere. In the end for those on the earlier call, not looking like there is interest for IEEE 802 to comment. Agenda Slide 32 Jay Holcomb (Itron)

31 January 2019 doc. : IEEE 802. 18 -19/0012 r 01 General Discussion Items -4 c of 6 • Phase I testing of prototype U-NII-4 devices -3 of 3 • Statement of commissioner Michael O’Rielly on 5. 9 GHz phase I testing data • • DOC-354831 A 1. docx DOC-354831 A 1. pdf DOC-354831 A 1. txt While I appreciate release of the 5. 9 GHz Phase I testing data, the results are not all that surprising given the simple questions posed. The reality is that the entire debate has gravitated away from the type of sharing regime envisioned in the testing. Instead, the Commission should move past this and initiate a rulemaking to reallocate at least 45 megahertz of the band, which is completely unused today for automobile safety • Commissioner Rosenworcel on phase I test report of prototype U-N-II-4 devices. • • DOC-354830 A 1. docx DOC-354830 A 1. pdf DOC-354830 A 1. txt “Nearly two years after the deadline for completing a three-phase test plan to determine whether auto safety and Wi-Fi can share the 5. 9 GHz band, this agency is releasing the results of its lab testing. These results are long overdue. But we need to do more than just make our work public. We need to start a rulemaking to take a fresh look at this band its real possibilities. ” Agenda Slide 33 Jay Holcomb (Itron)

31 January 2019 doc. : IEEE 802. 18 -19/0012 r 01 Potential reference document when doing comments • Note: in the 802. 19 co-existence <1 GHz meeting it was brought up for IEEE 802 as a whole to put together a document on basic spectrum parameters that would be good for all IEEE 802 standards to co-exist (less interference…. ) • Actually, need to have this for all IEEE 802 to just work in the spectrum, e. g. BWs needed. Not just coexistence. • Point being that 802. 18 can refer to / use when responding to regulators on different consultations, to encourage regulators in general to configure their spectrum to allow all the IEEE 802 standards in a more consistent/friendly way. • For the many in attendance, it was felt many regulators would appreciate at least knowing this. • Additional point to add to the doc, duty cycle is not for the protocol/standard/amendment being discussed, it is a regulation to allow others (and their packet lengths) to have access to the spectrum.
