doc.: IEEE /0126r00 Submission Comments received on P BEFORE Tuesday 5 pm Slide 18

doc.: IEEE /0126r00 Submission Comments from the Working Group 2.1 Title – Consider that “SOS” is a internationally recognized acronym for emergency requests. Consider changing or eliminating the acronym… Response: Accept: Eliminated the acronym 5.2 The Scope should not talk about the “project”, but rather describe the document that will be created. Please remove project specific definitions and instead describe what the standard will be defining. Response: Accept, the word Project has been changed to ‘Standard’ 5.2 “initially” defines? The Standard will have a set definition that as far as this revision is concerned is the only one that will exist. Do not describe or promise future enhancements. Response: Accept. The word ‘initially’ has been removed Slide 19

doc.: IEEE /0126r00 Submission Comments from the Working Group 8.1 is for extra explanation for identified clauses. The clause id is not included. Generally a history is not included in 8.1 Response: Accept. Some of the contents from Section 8.1 has been moved back to Section 5.5 Need for the Standard and the new Section 8.1 only contains a reference CSD: – Cite standards correctly. Response: Accept CSD: Seems the History is repeated for several responses. Response: Accept. Redundant information has been removed CSD: Seems overly verbose Response: Reduced the verbosity by eliminating repetitions Slide 20

doc.: IEEE /0126r00 Submission Comments from the Working Group Your title is too long. Please shorten the title to something more concise Response: Accept. The new title has been considerably shortened to ‘Standard for Spectrum Occupancy Sensing’ Since the scope of the project will become the scope of the actual standard, you should delete comments about the “SOS Project” since when the standard is published, there will no longer be an SOS Project, just and SOS standard. Response: Accept, the word Project has been changed to ‘Standard’ The standard should not specify “measurement devices” it should specify “measurement parameters and device behaviors” Response: Accept. Slide 21

doc.: IEEE /0126r00 Submission Comments from the Working Group The phrase “means that enable coalescing the results from multiple such devices” is quite wordy and does not seem to convey a clear message. Is this intended to say “the standard includes protocols for exchanging measurement information?” Response: Accept in Principal: Comment has been accepted with a few modifications - The Spectrum Occupancy and Characterization Sensing (SOCS) Standard creates a system specifying measurement parameters and device behaviors. It includes protocols for reporting measurement information that enable coalescing the results from multiple such devices. Since when the standard is published the project scope will be the standard scope, you should delete the word “initially” from the scope, so that the scope specifies what is in the standard. In an amendment this could be expanded. Response: Accept. The word ‘initially’ has been removed Slide 22

doc.: IEEE /0126r00 Submission Comments from the Working Group The sentence “This standard may specify interfaces and primitives to provide value added sensing information to various spectrum sharing database services” seems to describe some commercial benefits that might fit better into the Need section rather than the Scope section of the PAR. Response: Accept in Principal – We removed ‘may’ but kept this in the Scope section In the Need section of the PAR change “low cost sensors” to ““low-cost spectrum occupancy sensors” Response: Accept in Principal – But reconciled this with TAG comments The Explanatory Notes Section is used to provide additional information about specific sections in the PAR above. Instead in this PAR it seems to provide a lot of other information but does not explain a specific section above. Response: Accept. Some of the contents from Section 8.1 has been moved back to Section 5.5 Need for the Standard and the new Section 8.1 only contains a reference Slide 23

doc.: IEEE /0126r00 Submission Comments from the Working Group For the PAR: For the PAR: We suggest to delete the phrase “creation of low cost sensors for”. in the following line. Low cost would be vendor sensitive. From: “5.5 Need for the Project: This project will enable creation of low cost sensors for improved spectrum utilization and other shared spectrum applications.” To: “5.5 Need for the Project: This project will enable improved spectrum utilization and other shared spectrum applications.” Response: Accept in Principal – Changed to This project will enable improved spectrum utilization and support for other shared spectrum applications. This will benefit the primary users as well as the opportunistic users of the spectrum. Slide 24

doc.: IEEE /0126r00 Submission Comments from the Working Group For the CSD we have a couple of suggestions: In a) b. IEEE P1900.6a, should not have the ‘P’, should say “ b. IEEE a… Also further down in paragraph 3, the same. “… emerging P1900.6a Standard.” should read: “… emerging a Standard.” Response: Accept in Principal. Reference changed to the published IEEE Std a-2014 Slide 25

doc.: IEEE /0126r00 Submission Comments from the Working Group In a) we suggest the term “Companies” be changed to “Organizations” when referring to NICT, ETRI, etc. Response: Accept. Also in a) the paragraph starting with: “Systems simiar to the proposed SOS has been…” should read: “Systems similar to the proposed SOS have been…” Response: Accept. In a), the first line should remove ‘low cost’ to be consistent with comment above. From: “This standard aims at creating economies of scale through uniform and consistent operation of low cost spectrum sensors.” To: “This standard aims at creating economies of scale through uniform and consistent operation of spectrum sensors.” Response: Accept Slide 26

doc.: IEEE /0126r00 Submission Comments from David Law : This PAR has a very long 8.1 that does not point to any PAR item (as indicated in the parenthetical instruction). I guess it could point to 5.5 Need. Response: Accept. Some of the contents from Section 8.1 has been moved back to Section 5.5 Need for the Standard and the new Section 8.1 only contains a reference Slide 27

doc.: IEEE /0126r00 Submission Comments received on P AFTER Wednesday 5 pm Slide 28

doc.: IEEE /0126r00 Submission Comments from WG Comment from the Working Group 2.1 Suggest title be “Spectrum Characterization and Occupancy Sensing (SCOS)” then update throughout the the PAR. Response: WG accepted that suggestion during the WG closing plenary. The WG will request PAR and CSD with that change in the Name from ‘Spectrum Occupancy Sensing’ to ‘Spectrum Characterization and Occupancy Sensing’ to be submitted to the IEEE SA NESCOM. Slide 29

doc.: IEEE /0126r00 Submission WG Motions to Approve the P PAR and CSD, Wednesday, July 16, 2014 Move to approve the contents of the document: Rev4 form.docx as the contents of the P Spectrum Occupancy Sensing PAR, and the contents of the document: Rev spectrum-occuoancy-sensing-criteria-for-standards-development.docx as the contents of the P Criteria for Standard Development (CSD), to be forwarded to the IEEE 802 EC.
