3. IEEE 802.11 RTA TIG ◆ Missions： ◆ Objectives：
➣  Investigate latency and stability issues observed with real time applications such as mobile and multiplayer games, robotics and industrial automation
➣ Potential mechanisms to address the identified issues
◆ Objectives：
➣ Publish a requirement document to guide the development of MAC layer and upper solutions
➣ Ensure RTA TIG meet the timeline as the group consensus
➣ Publish necessary test environment and test plan as needed to validate the requirements stated in use model
