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 Patent Policy and Procedures: The contributor is familiar with the IEEE 802 Patent Policy and Procedures, 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 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 Working Group. If you have questions, contact the IEEE Patent Committee Administrator at. Date: Authors:

doc.: IEEE / 1162 r1 Submission November 2005 Ariel Sharon, MotorolaSlide 2 Abstract This document is the second IEEE – TIA TR (8.8) liaison report. –The first report ( , September 2005) provided an overview of TIA, with emphasis on Broadband activities. –This report concentrates on Wireless Broadband for Public Safety applications.

doc.: IEEE / 1162 r1 Submission November 2005 Ariel Sharon, MotorolaSlide 3 Broadband Task Group A new Broadband Task Group (BBTG) was created in October (2005) to integrate the needs of Public Safety users for wireless broadband applications considered by TR8.8. The BBTG currently reviews proposals for using as a PHY/MAC protocol for public safety in the 4.9GHz band. The US 4.9GHz Public safety band is only 50MHz wide and a 5MHz (1/4 clock) channel bandwidth is deemed an important modification to the current j, which only considers the use of the 4.9 (and low 5)GHz band in Japan. Four Public Safety Use Case are considered as shown in following slides:
