May 2009 doc.: IEEE 802.11-09/0549r0
17.2.2. Chair: Are you expecting some more output this week which we can mention at the Friday meeting?
17.2.3. A: I’m not sure, but I’ll check.
17.3. Bluetooth SIG 17.3.1. Chair: We’ll re-sequence this point, as the liaison officer is not currently present
17.4. Wi-Fi Alliance (WFA)17.4.1. Interesting time for Wi-Fi and the industry. Certifications are up by 50% this year, even
despite the economic downturn. Membership remains steady, especially from Asia, which is a good sign.
17.4.2. Brief update on a few WFA projects, showing that the scope is now starting to widen:17.4.2.1. Introduction of new EAP-types in testing17.4.2.2. Emission control17.4.2.3. TGn alignment17.4.2.4. Security
17.4.2.4.1. Management Frame Protection 17.4.2.5. Applications
17.4.2.5.1. Voice Personal17.4.2.5.2. Voice Enterprise (MMAC, 11r, 11k)
17.4.2.6. WPS extensions for IBSS17.4.2.7. Peer to peer (possible Bluetooth killer)17.4.2.8. MESH, which is currently slow, awaiting 11s completion17.4.2.9. Marketing activities regarding 11v issues17.4.2.10. Group looking at 11z type issues17.4.2.11. Next meeting is in Portland, Oregon, June 2009. This will be the 10th Birthday of
WFA.17.4.3. Q: You mentioned that IEEE should do nothing regarding some work (e.g. security), but
WFA should proceed with them.17.4.4. Chair: I’d also like to ask for guidance regarding “gaps” between IEEE and WFA for the
upcoming Portland meeting.17.4.5. A: Ok, from a personal point of view (not as chair as WFA). IEEE needs to identify the
specific problem we are addressing, which is of benefit to the user. However, I think this is a long discussion, which I’d rather not address at this time.
17.4.6. Chair: Perhaps in July we can allocate some more time for this discussion.
17.5. IETF17.5.1. No active liaison requests at the moment.17.5.2. The next IETF is at the end of July 2009, following the next IEEE 802.11 meeting, so we
have time then to work on specific requests for IETF inputs.17.5.3. No questions
17.6. Bluetooth SIG (11-09-0558r0)17.6.1. One of the most recognized world wide brands17.6.2. Growing set of gaming applications, especially with up-coming low powers devices.17.6.3. 3.0+ HS specification now incorporates IEEE 802.11 high speed transport. This may be
the Wi-Fi peer to peer killer. It brings the best qualities of Bluetooth and Wi-Fi together.17.6.4. Note the transmissions are peer to peer, not through the Wi-Fi AP.

May 2009 doc.: IEEE 802.11-09/0549r0
17.6.5. 11n will then assist 3.0+ by being able to push up the data rate again.17.6.6. Chair: I’d like to thank the speaker about this, since we had to wait for NDAs to be
agreed, prior to public disclosure.17.6.7. No questions
17.7. 3GPP17.7.1. The secretary mentioned a liaison to 3GPP CT1 (11-09-0594r0) which is being
considered by TGu this week, as a potential output for the Friday plenary.17.7.2. No questions
17.8. ETSI17.8.1. The ETSI liaison officer is not here this week and there are some candidates to possibly
take over.17.9. No questions
17.10. JTC1 (11-09-0611r1)17.10.1. This presentation shows the future of the JTC1 ad-hoc. The chairman of this ad
hoc group will step down following the July 2009 meeting; so it describes some of the ways forward for this ad-hoc group.
17.10.2. Relationship with IEEE 802 and ISO is very important in some countries. ISO provides WTO cover automatically. ISO is recognized internationally, whereas IEEE is not necessarily so.
17.10.3. A future chair for JTC1 is therefore required for this activity.17.10.4. I’d like to thank all the members of the JTC1 ad hoc for their help.17.10.5. Chair: This is very important, so please can people seriously consider this
position.
18. WG Improvements: Electronic Meetings (11-09-0544r0)
18.1. Vice-chair: Following the January and March 2009 meetings, this presentation addresses some of the issues regarding reducing meeting expenses and logistics.
18.2. This presentation starts with one of those items, namely the use of web tools.18.3. Vice-chair: I’d like to thank all the sponsors for providing teleconference bridges. Note
that these sponsors pick up the costs of the toll free numbers into teleconference bridges.18.4. Chair: the intent is here is to introduce this topic, not to start a long discussion18.5. Q: Regarding slide #2. I’d prefer not to allow substitution of meetings, as it raises issues
about time-zones etc. In 2002, we discussed meeting tools. Perhaps we could ask a University to develop something for us.
18.6. A: Some of the tools listed in the presentation are open source.18.7. Chair: I’d like to stop the questions there please.
19. P&P changes (11-09-0545r0)
19.1. Vice chair: Regarding teleconferences, we’d like to change the P&P so that more than one teleconference per (sub) group can be arranged within the same week. This is regarded as an un-due burden at this time.
Minutes page 10 Stephen McCann, RIM
May 2009 doc.: IEEE 802.11-09/0549r0
19.2. For example, TGad would like to hold teleconferences twice in the same day to allow European and Asian people to feel involved, based on differing time-zones.
19.3. Additionally, this would be a useful method to replace ad-hoc face to face meetings immediately prior to a main face to face meeting; as typically used following the completion of letter ballots.
19.4. C: Please can you set a limit on the number of teleconferences per week.19.5. Chair: The strategy should be that there is no artificial limit set. Regarding the specific
timings themselves, these should be arranged by the group itself.19.6. Vice-chair: This rule change will allow considerable flexibility. The WG still has to
approve the teleconferences.19.7. C: But I think that this will allow chairs to have as many teleconferences as they wish.19.8. C: I speak in favor of this motion, but I ask the chair to police this more carefully. The
chair of 802.11 must especially consider the cancellation of teleconferences which is waste of time.
20. Room Changes
20.1. TGu Chair: I’d like to request Wednesday PM2.20.2. Chair: Is there any objection to allowing TGu to using this slot.20.3. None seen20.4. TGaa released slots
20.4.1. The following slots: Wednesday PM1 and Thursday AM2 are no longer required for TGaa
21. TGaa vice-chair nomination
21.1. TGaa Chair: I’d like to nominate a vice-chair for TGaa: Alex Ashley (NDS)21.2. Elected by affirmation
22. IEEE 1900.4 Liaison (11-09-0615r0)
22.1. This liaison was addressed to IEEE 802 and requests an official liaison between IEEE 802 and IEEE 1900.4 regarding whitespace.
22.2. Chair: Please can you read the material and decide yourself whether a liaison officer is required.
23. TGp/TGu/TGp Timing Advertisement (11-09-0520r2)
23.1. TGv Chair: A joint three way meeting earlier in the week, decided that some harmonization of timing advertisements in these task groups should occur.
23.2. Chair: What is the publication sequence of amendments?23.3. Vice-chair: The technical editor’s report shows TGp, TGv, TGu23.4. TGv Chair: This is the same order that we have assumed for this topic.23.5. Normative text for each task group has been produced. Each task group will hopefully
approve the normative text for each of their own amendments.

33.5. TGn (slide #54)33.5.1. I’d like to recognize a large group of people who helped with assisting current TGn “No”
voters in the current sponsor ballot re-circulation.33.5.2. Please note that the timeline has changed, as was mentioned earlier in the meeting.33.5.3. No questions

33.7.1. Still working on resolving the comments from LB147. Hopefully will go to re-circulation ballot in July 2009.
33.7.2. Chair; I’d also like to 33.7.3. No questions
33.8. TGu (slide #77)33.8.1. Managed to go to re-circulation ballot this week.33.8.2. No questions
33.9. TGv (slide #80)33.9.1. Also managed to go to re-circulation ballot this week.33.9.2. No questions33.9.3. Chair: I live thank the chairs & members of TGp/TGu/TGv for their work on
harmonizing the time advertisement issue.
33.10. TGw (slide #90)33.10.1. Currently resolving comments from re-circulation sponsor ballot.33.10.2. Possibly will not meet in the July 2009 meeting.33.10.3. Chair: Since you will have to present to the EC in July 2009, I’m a little nervous
that you’re not meeting prior to the EC.33.10.4. A: Please can talk about the TGn/TGw dependency.33.10.5. C: TGn has a dependency on TGw. TGw is about 1 week ahead in the schedule.
However, there is time between now and July to be able to produce a package by July 17th 2009. Hopefully we’ll only have a few comments and hence changes in the next draft prior to the May 27th 2009 teleconference. If we then get more technical comments, I think TGw still has more time to issue another draft. Hence I think we’re ok, and should not block TGn progress. If this all fails, the dependency will have to be removed.
33.11. TGz (slide #96)33.11.1. Resolved comments from LB143, so hopefully will go to re-circulation ballot.33.11.2. Thanks for the temporary secretary this week.33.11.3. Q: Have you considered the creation of a sponsor ballot pool.33.11.4. A: Yes, there will be a chair’s teleconference on May 28th 2009 to discuss this
issue.
33.12. TGaa (slide #99)33.12.1. Continuing with technical discussions33.12.2. Chair: You want input to a pseudo ballot? When will this start?33.12.3. A: The draft is in the member’s area. I’d like to use the normal comment forms
for members to send in comments.33.12.4. Chair: What is the schedule for this?33.12.5. A: I’m not so sure that we have time to fit this in with all the other formal letter
ballots going on.33.12.6. Chair: What is your schedule for joint meetings with IEEE 802.1avb?33.12.7. A: This will be on Thursday morning at 8am of the July 2009 meeting.33.12.8. C: Please can you use the 802.11 reflector to announce your pseudo ballot, so
that all the members are aware of what is going on.

33.13. TGac (slide #107)33.13.1. A document has been approved as a base line channel model. However some
more work is still necessary to produce an initial draft. Perhaps this will appear at the July 2009.
33.13.2. There are some issues with TGaa, which we have to discuss in the future.33.13.3. On May 28th 2009, we hope to have 2 teleconference calls in the same day to

33.14. TGad (slide #113)33.14.1. Interesting discussions on the channel model.33.14.2. TGad would also like multiple calls on the same day to cover differing time
zones. The same material will be presented twice.33.14.3. Chair: regarding the joint meeting with 802.15.3c, is Wed PM2 a good time?33.14.4. A: yes, it’s fine.33.14.5. Q: You’ll still have to co-ordinate with 802.15.3c regarding the room
assignments for July 2009.33.14.6. A: Ok.
33.15. JTC1 Ad Hoc (slide #119)33.15.1. The group met three times this week. There will be a SC6 meeting in Tokyo in
early June 2009.33.15.2. No questions

work with IEEE 802. 34.2.4. A: This is not a Chinese standard, it’s a commercial document.34.2.5. Chair: Since Al Petrick is not here, we cannot have the scheduled detailed report on 15.6
BAN.

34.3. IEEE 802.18 (11-09-0643r3)34.3.1. This presentation has some follow up on Wednesday presentation regarding the FCC NoI
(Notice of Inquiry).34.3.2. Nothing affects any of the IEEE 802.11 standard, but it may be useful to provide some
feedback, which is due by June 2009. 11-09-0649r1 is the document to look at.34.3.3. IEEE 802.18 will have some teleconference calls to collate comments to provide a
response to the FCC.34.3.4. Chair: You mentioned that 802.16h might respond?34.3.5. A: I’m not sure as there is no document on the server at the moment.34.3.6. Chair: What about 802.22?34.3.7. A: Yes, they have but their document just contains diagrams at the moment.34.3.8. C: We are rather exposed as an industry to frequency bands opening up. Are you
addressing this weakness in your document?34.3.9. A: I think at the moment, this is just a notice of inquiry and that level of detail is
probably not required.

37. Other New Business
37.1. Web Conferencing & Meeting Logistics (11-09-0544r1)37.1.1. Continuation of earlier presentation from the mid-week plenary.
37.1.2. Straw Poll #1 (slide #11)37.1.3. Are you interested in pursuing further Electronic Meeting Services?37.1.4. Yes: 10, No: 10
Minutes page 21 Stephen McCann, RIM
May 2009 doc.: IEEE 802.11-09/0549r0
37.1.5. Straw Poll #2 (slide #12)37.1.6. Would you be willing to pay $40 per month to cover the cost of full-featured web
conferencing tools? Multiple platforms; Audio/web integration; Polling; Minimum 25 person cap;
37.1.7. Q: How do intend to bill this? If it’s built in to meeting fees, then I’m happy, but otherwise there may be problems.
37.1.8. Chair: We haven’t got to that level of detail yet.37.1.9. A: This figure is across the whole IEEE 802.11 membership.37.1.10. Q: What does the package include?37.1.11. A: Remember that toll free bridges, still incur a charge to the original provider.37.1.12. Q: Ok, so does the $40 include the call back feature?37.1.13. A: Yes, although it’s just an average figure.37.1.14. Q: I think you’re possibly scaring people by introducing this, unless this is very
simple indeed.37.1.15. Q: I think we have suppliers of this type of service present, who should be
recused.37.1.16. Chair: No, I don’t think we need to consider that, as this is an end user issue.37.1.17. Yes: 5, No: 17
37.1.18. Moving to document 11-09-0652r037.1.19. This document addresses some of the other improvement ideas regarding our
meetings.37.1.20. Chair: One of the topics discussed in teleconference voting. We normally rely on
face to face meetings for voting. I think this would then require a different type of voting status. Of course, this then starts a quorum debate. Hence, currently we are not thinking about teleconference voting, but perhaps we can initiate letter ballot votes between meetings. Details need to be sorted out, regarding this point.
37.2. IEEE Anniversary Celebrations37.2.1. This year the IEEE celebrates its 125 year. In March 2010, it’s also the 30th Anniversary
of IEEE 802 (Orlando, Florida). Hence the IEEE 802 chair is looking for suggested events for this.
37.3. Venue Planning37.3.1. C: I notice that IEEE 802.21 is not meeting with us for our future interims. Will this
affect our future hotel bookings?37.3.2. Chair: Our current plans indicate not, but perhaps we need to re-evaluate this. However,
the attendance at 802.15 meetings is increasing, whilst we are reducing. The bigger issue is hotel room nights, as some people appear to be staying in alternative accommodation.
37.3.3. Vice-chair: 11-09-0371r2 does show historical attendance. Please look at this.
38. AOB
38.1. Q: I tried to register for the San Francisco meeting, but I could only get the hotel reservation, but not the meeting registration?
38.2. Chair: Action: Ok, I’ll check.
38.3. Q: When will the September meeting be available for reservations?
Minutes page 22 Stephen McCann, RIM
May 2009 doc.: IEEE 802.11-09/0549r0
38.4. Chair: Action: Probably at the July 2009 meeting, but I need to find out if we can have it earlier on the website.
38.5. C: I’d like to thank the planning team who help on the face to face registration desk.
39. Next Meeting
