May 2018 Interim doc. : IEEE 802. 18 -18/0050 r 03 FCC NOI 4 GHz -2 • 03 May: This is the old TV down link band. • Sounds like the EU already re-purposed this band years ago to terrestrial mobile. At the time it was a significant effort. • EU 3. 4 - 3. 8 GHz is a pioneer band for 5 G. • In NAM, there are many fixed links yet in this band. • For IEEE 802, do we want to use this band? • Remember, before 802. 11 had no interest in the band below this, with it just NAM. • Though would they now, or 802. 15, or ? • 26 April: • Commlawblog. com has discussed some on this. e. g. could this lead to something like CBRS? • There is discussion from the satellite folks to give up some of the adjacent band to possibly help with CBRS and terrestrial use. More to this with several pieces. • There is an ITU-R connection here also with global use. • This summer will see the NPRM for this band. This NOI is to help setup for the NPRM.

Nonetheless, we seek comment on the following questions: • How should we assess the operations and possible impacts of sharing on Federal and non-Federal users already operating in this band? • How might sharing be accomplished, with licensed and/or unlicensed operations, without causing harmful interference to Federal and non-Federal users already operating in this band, and in which parts of the band would such sharing be feasible? • What other considerations should the Commission take into account in preparing the 3. 7 - 4. 2 GHz Report? Agenda Slide 15 Jay Holcomb (Itron)

May 2018 Interim doc. : IEEE 802. 18 -18/0050 r 03 FCC Public Notice 4 GHz -5 • Does IEEE 802 have anything to reply to this Public Notice docket? • The discussion headed down path to maybe wait till later, reply comments, ex partes or even the NPRM. • With one point outstanding if we do want to comment now, the UWB unlicensed is already there working with the current environment. Similar to the UWB concern at 6 GHz. • Will review again Thursday. • Thursday: • The. 18 chair did send a template for a submission and all the IEEE administrative policies to Encina • Per discussions since Tuesday, UWB inputs will hold on this PN, while 802. 19 is working the process. • So, any change of mind, do we still hold and not do comments at this time? Yes – • We will not do comments at this time • Agenda Next will be the teleconference next week and Encina joining. Slide 16 Jay Holcomb (Itron)

May 2018 Interim doc. : IEEE 802. 18 -18/0050 r 03 EU items • • Anything to share on the EU front? Yes, see below. Anything IEEE 802 should respond to? Nothing specific was mentioned. CEPT continues with major focus on 6 GHz. 60 GHz –extending with 66 - 71 GHz looks like this will be accepted, with an unlicensed piece. Want to keep our use-cases visible there. • • SRDoc - TR 103 583 Request for band beyond 66 GHz still in process. • • Request from CEPT for input on this. • Sharing mechanism it not LBT and is being worked on. • The SRDoc needs more work, and it is unclear with SE-19. EN 302 567, 60 GHz Harmonized Std. • Pending since no Rcvr sensitivity. • Also, need to add the adjacent channel rejection. • The basic could be done in weeks, then the process of a few months to finish. SE 45 – doing technical evaluations of RLANs @ 6 GHz, e. g. sharing with incumbents. • Agenda RLAN request is to be co-primary. With UWB still as secondary. Slide 17 Jay Holcomb (Itron)

May 2018 Interim doc. : IEEE 802. 18 -18/0050 r 03 Wi. Fi / UWB Coexistence -1 • IEEE 802. 19 and other WG chairs are working on IEEE 802 single voice. • From a high level, could we list out some of the following. • Do not want to get into detail, just high level points to consider to help. • What criteria should be considered? • • • Agenda Power out needed, different for each technology. Bandwidth considerations. Channel sense, e. g. LBT. Incumbent protection. Interference types, blocks. vs. range decrease. Operational ranges themselves. Different modulation types. Tuning range of UWB (global considerations). Thursday: Is there a way to ID that UWB is there and transmitting? Slide 18 Jay Holcomb (Itron)

May 2018 Interim doc. : IEEE 802. 18 -18/0050 r 03 Wi. Fi / UWB Coexistence -2 • What Use Cases should be considered? Agenda • • • Higher speed (wider BWs) for Wi. Fi users, e. g. streaming video, etc. • • • Thursday: Global availability (S. Korea just this week consultation 6 – 10. 2 GHz for UWB) UWB applications - Many (See 15 -17/0660), e. g. location is a significant use case. Where devices are used, height, indoor/outdoor, etc. Review 15. 2 co-existence of Wi. Fi / BT / … Co-located in a device, and non-co-located. Nothing new. Slide 19 Jay Holcomb (Itron)

Guidance is to review and comment in detail. • Document 18 -18/0028 rxx, latest revision is our current review markup. • Please send comments to. 18 chair, to integrate, to be reviewed by the TAG. • Becoming clearer the starting premise of the current paper is from several years ago and input is coming in the premise has changed in recent years. • With that trying to understand how to propose edits to the paper. Agenda Slide 20 Jay Holcomb (Itron)

May 2018 Interim doc. : IEEE 802. 18 -18/0050 r 03 IEEE EU Position Statement -2 • Went through 18 -18/0028 r 01 review copy, the remaining sections we have not reviewed and found a couple of specific areas that need clarity. • And brought audience up to speed on point premise of paper is from a few years back and had agreement with those that spoke up. • Some general questions: • Should the IEEE SA (the position statement we reviewed in November and January) and the IEEE EU collaborate on these 2 separate position statements in some fashion? • Then move above them. (. 18 should still review) • • • What was original driver to do the statement? Who is the general audience it is written for? As it is, there is a concern if it is sent out and organizations our members are working with, CEPT, BRAN, etc. it will cause confusion, and more. • Request that anyone with specific input to continue to please pass on to the. 18 chair, sooner. • . 18 chair will cleanup the review revision of the paper (should end up r 02) and ask the IEEE 802 chair for further guidance on next steps.

May 2018 Interim doc. : IEEE 802. 18 -18/0050 r 03 Any Other Business • 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.

May 2018 Interim doc. : IEEE 802. 18 -18/0050 r 03 Google Wavier -2 • • Google would like to work with IEEE 802 on what they can do to answer our questions. • They did contact the IEEE 802 chair and may join us for a Thursday call in the future. • They do not want to interfere and was thinking if meeting EU standards that would help. • https: //mentor. ieee. org/802. 18/dcn/18/18 -18 -0045 -00 -0000 -google-s-waiver-request-google-replycomments-motion-sensing-57 -64 -ghz. pdf • Google has asked to operate Soli technology at the requested power levels only in devices for which Google is the responsible party under the Commission’s device authorization rules. • Devices incorporating Project Soli technology will operate at a much lower duty cycle. For instance, a duty cycle of 0. 1% would reduce a Soli device’s time-averaged output power by some 30 d. B. • … This assumption that a single Wi. Gig OFDM symbol will be repeatedly affected by Soli emissions, and that Wi. Gig will be continuously affected, led Lovefield Wireless to the highly conservative results in its paper. The considerable amount of time during which Project Soli technology will not interfere with the channel can be taken into account to the extent there are concerns about the requested waiver. Google’s forthcoming data submission will include analysis conforming Lovefield’s results to this real-world circumstance, in response to the comments received. We need to be sure that any discussions w/Google are in our open meetings. The reply comments are closed. These discussions and any results to these, ex partes are optional, and would need to be tied to formal FCC record. Agenda Slide 31 Jay Holcomb (Itron)

This lead to further discussion. • • There looks to be 2 topics, the NPRM/5. 9 GHz and the standard update. • We need to be clear what is regulatory based and what is standards base. • Maybe start with just the NPRM/5. 9 GHz focused status, and not the 802. 11 p for now? Ran short on time, where we were getting to: • Will introduce this to the NGV SG in Warsaw first. • Could do teleconference as needed after that. FCC WAC documents could add to this……. Maybe start with this. • Agenda The letter needs to talk to backward compatible and interoperability also. Peter will put a presentation together for the NGV SG in Warsaw.

May 2018 Interim doc. : IEEE 802. 18 -18/0050 r 03 IMT 2020: The buzz in the industry on future steps in mobile technology — 5 G — has seen a sharp increase, with attention now focused on enabling a seamlessly connected society in the 2020 timeframe and beyond that brings together people along with things, data, applications, transport systems and cities in a smart networked communications environment. In this context, ITU and its partners, sharing a common community of interest, have recognized the relationship between IMT — International Mobile Telecommunication system — and 5 G and are working towards realizing the future vision of mobile broadband communications. In early 2012, ITU-R embarked on a programme to develop “IMT for 2020 and beyond”, setting the stage for 5 G research activities that are emerging around the world. Through the leading role of Working Party 5 D, ITU’s Radiocommunication Sector (ITU -R) has finalized its view of a timeline towards IMT-2020. The detailed investigation of the key elements of 5 G are already well underway, once again utilizing the highly successful partnership ITU-R has with the mobile broadband industry and the wide range of stakeholders in the 5 G community.

May 2018 Interim doc. : IEEE 802. 18 -18/0050 r 03 IMT 2020 -cont: In September 2015, ITU-R has finalized its “Vision” of the 5 G mobile broadband connected society. This view of the horizon for the future of mobile technology will be instrumental in setting the agenda for the World Radiocommunication Conference 2019, where deliberations on additional spectrum are taking place in support of the future growth of IMT. ITU has a rich history in the development of radio interface standards for mobile communications. The framework of standards for International Mobile Telecommunications (IMT), encompassing IMT-2000 and IMT-Advanced, spans the 3 G and 4 G industry perspectives and will continue to evolve as 5 G with IMT-2020. https: //www. itu. int/en/ITU-R/study-groups/rsg 5/rwp 5 d/imt-2020/Pages/default. aspx Agenda Slide 38 Jay Holcomb (Itron)
