Minutes page 9 Stephen McCann, BlackBerry

January 2014 doc.: IEEE 802.11-14/0023r0

17.2.4. The next WFA meeting is in Singapore in March 2014.17.2.5. No questions

17.3. IETF (11-14-0100r0)17.3.1. Q: Should some of the pervasive monitoring aspects within IETF be also discussed with

IEEE 802.11?17.3.2. A: I understand that this will be discussed at the IEEE 802 level. Going forward, perhaps

a presentation within WNG would be appropriate.

17.4. 3GPP (11-14-0154r0)17.4.1. Q: Regarding the untrusted Wi-Fi in the lower right hand corner of the diagram on slide

#3, where is the AP in this diagram. Is it in the ePDG?17.4.2. A: No, it’s within the untrusted Wi-Fi cloud in the bottom right hand corner. ePDG

means “enhanced Packet Data Gateway”.17.4.3. Q: I see that the presentation mentions CAPWAP (slide #3). Is this still to be used?17.4.4. A: I’m not sure about that, but I’ll try to find out for you.

18. Meeting Venue Volunteer update

18.1.1. VC1: I would like to ask for volunteers for future meetings, for example suggesting restaurants for people with specific dietary requirements.

18.1.2. At the moment, I’m looking for people who can help with Beijing. A small ad-hoc group of people would create some recommendations that we can put on the face-to-face page for the March 2014 meeting.

18.1.3. In addition, there is also the Waikoloa meeting in Hawaii, which I would appreciate help with.

18.1.4. Any volunteers? If not, please contact me afterwards.

19. Webex Experiment (11-14-0036r2)

19.1.1. VC2: This is the current situation with the IEEE-SA Webex facility that various groups have been using for the last few weeks.

19.1.2. Chair: We are currently talking to IEEE-SA about this going forward.19.1.3. Q: When using a PC, muting causes a problem with a recording that means you can’t

hear the conversation.19.1.4. A: Yes, we know about that particular issue and apparently nothing can be done.19.1.5. Comment (C): Using a local mute does not work well for an echo suppression system.

We should tolerate that 10 second recording.19.1.6. VC2: As mentioned, I’ve reported this back to IEEE-SA.

20. Officer Elections March 2014 (11-13-1486r2 slide #37)

There are a number of appointed positions that the new chair will decide upon.20.1.3. Task Group officer election will then take place in May 2014.20.1.4. No questions

Minutes page 10 Stephen McCann, BlackBerry

January 2014 doc.: IEEE 802.11-14/0023r0

21. Room change requests (11-13-1486r2 slide #45)

21.1. There are some changes on the room schedule.21.2. TGah ad-hoc: Please can we release Wednesday PM1 in room “Olympic 1”21.3. TGai: They would like 3 new slots: Wed PM1, Thu AM2 and Thu PM1.21.4. Chair: We need to check with face-to-face (the room planners) about the 2 rooms on

Thursday, as we’re not sure at the moment21.5. Chair: Is there any objection to approving these changes (if possible with the room

planners)?21.6. VC1: Rooms have now been allocated as follows: Thurs AM2: Park, Thurs PM1:

Constellation 2. Note: Please can members work through the VC1 to do these arrangements with the room planners, as personal emails directly to them confuse the planning.

22. Officer Changes

22.1. Chair: Yongho Seok has been nominated as the new chair of TGah.22.2. I would like to ask for confirmation of his position.22.3. I also understand that TGah will have a vice-chair and a co-editor later in the week.22.4. Chair: Note, we will still have a TGah election in May 2014, as per our rules.22.5. Chair: There is still an open position for the Regulatory chair

23. Convention on document access (11-14-0036r2 slide #27)

23.1. VC2: Someone who was involved in a project and now longer attends, can’t then upload documents after some time. A former member of TGad, found that he could not upload documents to resolve some issues found in TGmc, during the 11ad roll up.

23.2. C: Such people may need to be also updated about changes in style and format.23.3. Q: So, if someone attends once, then they would become a life member for write access

to the document server. Could we set the bar (threshold) at a former voter instead?23.4. VC1: But that then changes the entry rules for how you obtain reflector access in the first

place.23.5. C: This is a good proposal. But I also think they will need access to the WG reflector, so

they can be made aware of any changes to the rules and procedures.23.6. VC2: I don’t think there’s any conflict of state as mentioned earlier.23.7. VC2: I’ll bring this back on Friday, after taking your comments into consideration.

24. Regulatory liaison letter (11-14-0025r5)

24.1. Chair: this is a liaison letter from Regulatory to IEEE 802.18, regarding a DSRC sharing scheme at the upper end of the 5 GHz band.

24.1.1. Submit 802.11REG SC document 11-14/25r5 to 802.18 and subsequent forwarding to the FCC.

24.1.2. Moved on behalf of the Regulatory Group: Second Stuart Kerry.24.1.3. [REG SC results: Moved: John Notor, Second: Stephen McCann, Y – 22, N – 0, A – 0]24.1.4. No objection to approving by unanimous consent.

Minutes page 11 Stephen McCann, BlackBerry

January 2014 doc.: IEEE 802.11-14/0023r0

25. LTE-U (11-13-1486r2)

25.1. Chair: Here is some brief information about the potential use of LTE in unlicensed spectrum.

25.2. C: It’s also worth noting that in Europe, some people are referring to the use of LTE in the VHF/UHF bands also as LTE-U.

25.3. IEEE 802 Chair: Will IEEE 802.11 consider having a liaison with 3GPP on this topic?25.4. Chair: There is currently no liaison on the floor. Generally speaking 3GPP would prefer

not to have a liaison with IEEE 802.11.25.5. Q: what about the IEEE 802.11 – 3GPP liaison officer?25.6. A: That role is to just to report on 3GPP activities regarding WLAN. There has not been

any formal agreement for exchange of documents. If a specific topic wants to be raised and liaised to 3GPP then a letter can easily be crafted.

26. TGak Ad-Hoc (11-14-0050r1)

26.1. TGak Chair: This is a proposal to have a TGak ad-hoc in May 2014 in Hawaii.

27. Working Group Motions (Old Business) (11-14-0144r0)

27.1. TGak Ad-hoc (slide #4)27.1.1. Authorize TGak to hold an ad hoc meeting in Hawaii at the end of the week before

the Waikoloa meeting in May for the purpose of developing draft improvements and comment resolutions.

27.1.2. Moved: Donald Eastlake 3rd on behalf of TGak27.1.3. [TG result: Mover: Dick Roy, Seconder: Mark Hamilton, Vote: 7-0-2]27.1.4. No objection to approving by unanimous consent.27.1.5. Chair: Please can you send the logistics information to the WG email reflector.

28. TGac drafts

28.1. VC2: Following publication, the TGac drafts and other material will now be removed from the web-site.

29. Graphical Formats (11-11-0875r3)

29.1. VC2: Please note the following rules about graphics and figures for drafts.29.2. Basically I would prefer Visio. If it’s not in Visio, then at some point, someone will have

to re-draw it in Visio. Please note that this is just a recommendation.29.3. Q: within TGaq, the request was for separate figures within documents to be saved as

separate images.29.4. VC2: The discussion within TGaq was mistaken, as these were guidelines for the

technical editor and not the submitters.29.5. TGaq chair: As I was unsure of the current recommendations from the technical editors, I

decided to move the TGaq discussion to this meeting instead.

Minutes page 12 Stephen McCann, BlackBerry

January 2014 doc.: IEEE 802.11-14/0023r0

29.6. Q: Additionally within TGaq, someone did not use Visio and wishes to know what to do.29.7. VC2: If it’s not possible to provide any form of Microsoft documentation, then .pdf can

be used. There is no requirement to use a specific tool, just a recommendation to produce a certain type of output.

30. Progress about the HEW SG PAR (11-14-0151r0)

30.1. HEW SG Chair: These are some slides which summarize the current progress on the HEW SG PAR.

30.2. Q: I’m concerned about the text “2 times improvement”. Improvement from what?30.3. A: It is relative to 11ac and 11n. This is explained in the PAR explanatory notes.30.4. Q: On slide #5, I think that mobile technologies should be considered in the future.

Perhaps a liaison with 3GPP could be considered. I know this would occur at the working group level.

30.5. A: I’ve not mentioned it in this summary. This should be a working group discussion, as opposed to HEW SG.

30.6. Q: Could the liaison to 3GPP or the chair consider this?30.7. Chair: Which portion of 3GPP would be considered? If there is a specific request, then

we could consider it during the Friday closing plenary.30.8. A: In future HEW SG meetings, we could address this further.30.9. Chair: Again, perhaps the chair of IEEE 802 and IEEE-SA could assist with such a

liaison.30.10. Q: When would the “2 times improvement” occur? Would this be in 2020? Is it worth it?30.11. A: Sure, but the target of the HEW project would be more than that. However, we’re not

in a position to state this within the PAR.30.12. C: Yes, I agree that this appears to be a under whelming expectation. Surely we can do

better than this.30.13. C: Please remember that we are talking about aggregate conditions, including very dense

deployments, which do not work well at the moment. It is not an easy issue to solve.
