IEEE Study Group In November 2004 the Executive Committee approved an 802 P&P change to require production of a Coexistence Assurance (CA) document for all new unlicensed wireless projects which could potentially impact coexistence with other 802 wireless networks

CA Methodology The TAG took on the task of producing an internal document describing how to produce such a CA document The TAG currently has a 64 page document, which is a work in progress, but is starting to be used by the working groups – b

Study Group The TAG believes that using the current internal document as a starting point it could produce an IEEE Recommended Practice or Guide that would be very useful to the industry The IEEE document would describe how to predict coexistence of wireless networks The document would target the following classes of wireless networks –WPAN –WLAN –WMAN –WRAN
