4. Status – Usage Models 11-03-802r7 is latest version on the server
Jan 2004
Status – Usage Models
r7 is latest version on the server
R0 is the version containing usage models that have been voted and adopted in an earlier session
Simulation Scenarios need some work to fix inconsistencies
Missing simulation scenario for point-point link throughput simulations
Possibly missing specification of PHY impairments for PHY-level simulations
Adrian Stephens, Intel Corporation

5. Status – Functional Requirements
Jan 2004
Status – Functional Requirements
r6 was the latest version presented at the end of the last TGn session
Motion to adopt was tabled
Version R9 contains only editorial changes from R6, and is the latest version on the server
Adrian Stephens, Intel Corporation

6. Status – Comparison Criteria
Jan 2004
Status – Comparison Criteria
r7 is the latest version on the server
Contains 80 CC
6 Have been approved by FRCC Telecons
74 Have not yet been considered
There are a significant number of functional duplicates

7. Goals for this FRCC Session
Jan 2004
Goals for this FRCC Session
Complete Simulation Scenarios
Complete CC
In TGn session:
Adopt FR r9
Adopt CC r?
Adopt r?
Adrian Stephens, Intel Corporation

8. Strategy for this session
Jan 2004
Strategy for this session
Only FR and UM bug-fixes will be considered
No new CC content that does not replace or reduce existing content
Divide and conquer the CC!
4 Groups to work on CC, 1 group to work on simulation scenarios inconsistencies (SS)
CC Groups:
1. Mary Cramer, sections 4.2 and 4.2
2. John Ketchum, sections 4.3 and 4.4
3. Sanjiv Nanda, section 4.5
4. Jeff Gilbert, section 4.6
SS Group: Adrian Stephens (pro tem)
Adrian Stephens, Intel Corporation

9. Tentative FRCC Agenda Appoint secretary Review & Discuss Strategy
Jan 2004
Tentative FRCC Agenda
Appoint secretary
Review & Discuss Strategy
Agree logistics for the group meetings
Identify volunteers for each group (also chair SS group?)
Split into ad-hoc groups until work substantially complete
Editorial merge from groups
Report changes from Group Representatives
… (4 hours meeting time elapses) …
Motions to adopt documents
Adrian Stephens, Intel Corporation

10. Jan 2004
Goals of the CC groups
1. Remove duplicate CCs (if there is a choice between alternates that cannot be settled in the group, wordsmith two CCs and bring to a vote between them in the full session)
2. Remove any that do not meet requirements in section 1.1 of CC doc
3. Ensure CC description is complete and unambiguous
4. Reduce number of CCs by 50%
Rank the critera by assigning a priority to each
Define the form in which CCs are to be disclosed
All output must be wordsmithed, ready for merging
Adrian Stephens, Intel Corporation

11. Jan 2004
Goal of the SS group
Fix up any inconsistencies between application definitions and simulation scenarios

Jan 2004
Strategy for Thursday 10:30-15:30 (4 hours of meeting time)
At 8:00am, move to modify the TGn agenda to start this process at 10:30 (special orders)
At 10:45-11:00 discuss simulation methodologies
At 11:00 Invite all major objections to the FR, CC and SS to be declared in the TGn session and listed realtime
After the list, entertain a motion to limit debate on the points to give a total of 2 hours debate time.
Then, work through list of objections and edit documents realtime in front of TGn
Then, move to adopt UM, FR, CC documents on completion of edits
Then, move to adopt CFP document
Then, Plan activities for Orlando Meeting (March 2004)

13. Purpose of Simulation Methodology Special Committee (SMCC)
Jan 2004
Purpose of Simulation Methodology Special Committee (SMCC)
1 To define a mandatory MAC-PHY interface that shall be used in all MAC simulations generating results reported in the CC
2 To recommend methodology that may be used by complete or partial proposals to aid in the generation of results to be reported to the CC
To define a PHY-MAC interface to be used in MAC simulations generating results reported in the CC and vote upon completion whether it should be mandatory or optional
Adrian Stephens, Intel Corporation

14. Jan 2004
Term of SMSC
The term of the SMSC will expire at the end of the March 2004 session, unless renewed at the March 2004 session
