Proposal for TGm SDD Call for Proposal Topics

Proposal for TGm SDD Call for Proposal Topics Schedule Document Number: IEEE C 802. 16 m-08/256 r 2 Date Submitted: 2008 -03 -20 Source: Jose Puthenkulam (jose. p. puthenkulam@intel. com), Sassan Ahmadi (sassan. ahmadi@intel. com) Intel Corporation Hokyu Choi (choihk@samsung. com), Heewon Kang (hkang@samsung. com) Samsung Electronics Venue: IEEE 802. 16 Session #54, Orlando, FL Base Document: None Purpose: To enable TGm to decide when proposals for various topics could be invited and also to enable contributors to know how much time they have to develop their proposal contributions. In addition to to enable completion of the SDD in a reasonable time Notice: This document has been prepared to assist IEEE 802. 16. It is offered as a basis for discussion and is not binding on the contributing individual(s) or organization(s). The material in this document is subject to change in form and content after further study. The contributor(s) reserve(s) the right to add, amend or withdraw material contained herein. Release: The contributor grants a free, irrevocable license to the IEEE to incorporate material contained in this contribution, and any modifications thereof, in the creation of an IEEE Standards publication; to copyright in the IEEE’s name any IEEE Standards publication even though it may include portions of this contribution; and at the IEEE’s sole discretion to permit others to reproduce in whole or in part the resulting IEEE Standards publication. The contributor also acknowledges and accepts that this contribution may be made public by IEEE 802. 16 Patent Policy: The contributor is familiar with the IEEE 802. 16 Patent Policy and Procedures <http: //ieee 802. org/16/ipr/patents/policy. html>, including the statement "IEEE standards may include the known use of patent(s), including patent applications, provided the IEEE receives assurance from the patent holder or applicant with respect to patents essential for compliance with both mandatory and optional portions of the standard. " Early disclosure to the Working Group of patent information that might be relevant to the standard is essential to reduce the possibility for delays in the development process and increase the likelihood that the draft publication will be approved for publication. Please notify the Chair <mailto: chair@wirelessman. org> as early as possible, in written or electronic form, if patented technology (or technology under patent application) might be incorporated into a draft standard being developed within the IEEE 802. 16 Working Group. The Chair will disclose this notification via the IEEE 802. 16 web site <http: //ieee 802. org/16/ipr/patents/notices>.

Motivation • • Presently TGm SDD call for proposal topics are decided each meeting. To improve the process, we suggest TGm agrees on the topics beforehand in order to help contributors to better plan the development of their material. The topics suggested are at a high level. Nevertheless, they provide a framework to manage the scope of the contributions to keep the schedule. Also presently the TGm Work Plan (07/001 r 1) conceives completion of the SDD by Jul’ 08 and initiation of Amendment by May’ 08, which needs to be updated (See slide 5). We suggest to clarify the scope and schedule of the SDD (See Slide 3) in order to have a complete SDD by Nov’ 08. However, we want to have a stable SDD by Sep ‘ 08. In order to accelerate SDD development, we prefer to focus on architectural descriptions and defer specification details for the Amendment (Stage 3). We also suggest initiation of the Amendment working document by Sep’ 08 reflecting the present status. 2

Proposal for TGm SDD CFP Schedule IEEE Meetings Schedule Suggested Main Topics for new material for TGm SDD for each IEEE meeting January 2008 Frame Structure, Multiple Access Schemes March 2008 DL Symbol Structure, Pilots, Resource Allocation DL control channel design May 2008 UL Symbol Structure, Pilots, Resource Allocation, UL control channel design, DL MIMO Schemes, HARQ architecture July 2008 DL synchronization, UL MIMO Schemes, Interference Mitigation Concepts, Upper-MAC Concepts (Mobility and power management) MAC and PHY specific topics to discussed in parallel September 2008 Relay, Multi-Radio Coexistence, MBS, LBS, Security principles (Begin baseline stage 3 document) Deadline for new proposals November 2008 SDD Clarifications/Comments Only for clarification and correction Notes Note: SDD [Stage 2] contributions should include only system architecture and concepts. Implementation details are 3 in the scope of the amendment [Stage 3].

Backup • The following slide is presented for information only. • We propose updating the Work Plan in the July session after ITU-R meeting in June. 4
