2. doc.: IEEE 802.11-12/0904r1 Submission July 2012 Jon Rosdahl (CSR)Slide 2 Abstract This slide contains the review of the PARS that were under consideration for the 2012 July Plenary in San Diego. The response to the comments are added in the slide after the respective comment.

3. doc.: IEEE 802.11-12/0904r1 Submission PARs under consideration July 15-20, 2012, San Diego, CA USA 1.802.16q, amendment for multi-tier networks, PAR and 5CPAR and 5C 2.802.16.3, new standard for mobile broadband network performance measurements, PAR and 5CPAR and 5C 3.802.3bm, amendment for 40 Gb/s and 100 Gb/s Operation Over Fiber Optic Cables, PAR and 5CPAR5C 4.802.3bn, amendment for Ethernet Passive Optical Networks Protocol over Coax Networks, PAR and 5CPAR5C 5.802.11aj, amendment for Enhancements for Very High Throughput to support one or more of the Chinese 40-50 GHz and 59-64 GHz frequency bands, PAR and 5CPAR5C July 2012 Jon Rosdahl (CSR)Slide 3

4. doc.: IEEE 802.11-12/0904r1 Submission 1. 802.16q, amendment for multi-tier networks, PAR and 5C In 8.1 an item number is required when adding an extra explanation : “(Item number and Explanation)” The statement is not really an Explanation of any item, but rather a statement of an additional requirement that could be part of the Scope of the project statement. This may also be addressed in the 5C similar to how 802.16 responded in that case about conformance in 802.16.3. July 2012 Jon Rosdahl (CSR)Slide 4

5. doc.: IEEE 802.11-12/0904r1 Submission Response from 802.16q Item numbers have been added to the Explanations in the Explanatory Notes section. The new text is as follows: "[5.5] The 'variety of overlaid smaller cells' includes micro cells, pico cells, and femto cells. [5.2.b] A 'multi-tier network' is a wireless Metropolitan Area Network (MAN) comprised of macro cells, micro cells, pico cells, and femto cells, typically controlled by the same operator. [5.2.b] The enhancements specified by this amendment are limited to licensed-band operation." July 2012 Jon Rosdahl (CSR)Slide 5 In 8.1 an item number is required when adding an extra explanation : “(Item number and Explanation)”

6. doc.: IEEE 802.11-12/0904r1 Submission Response from 802.16q (cont) The following sentence has been removed from Section 8.1 of the PAR Document and appended to Section 5.2.b of the PAR Document: "This amendment shall comply with IEEE Std 802, IEEE Std 802.1D, and IEEE Std 802.1Q." July 2012 Jon Rosdahl (CSR)Slide 6 The statement is not really an Explanation of any item, but rather a statement of an additional requirement that could be part of the Scope of the project statement. This may also be addressed in the 5C similar to how 802.16 responded in that case about conformance in 802.16.3.

7. doc.: IEEE 802.11-12/0904r1 Submission 2. 802.16.3, new standard for mobile broadband network performance measurements, PAR and 5C “Mobile Broadband Network Performance Measurements” 4.2 or 4.3 may have an incorrect date – general rule of thumb is that it takes about 6 months for the fastest start of Sponsor Ballot to submittal to RevCom... Spell out first use of acronyms in 8.1 – IETF, ITU-T, lmap… In 5C -3 please add the “(a)” and “(b)” to indicate the response to the specific questions (similar to what was done in 16q). July 2012 Jon Rosdahl (CSR)Slide 7

8. doc.: IEEE 802.11-12/0904r1 Submission Response from 802.16.3 Agreed July 2012 Jon Rosdahl (CSR)Slide 8

9. doc.: IEEE 802.11-12/0904r1 Submission 3. 802.3bm, amendment for 40 Gb/s and 100 Gb/s Operation Over Fiber Optic Cables, PAR and 5C The 5C that was used is not the currently approved set of 5Cs that are required by 802 EC OM (see 11.5.2). Please update and respond accordingly. The title of the PAR and the 5C is different… The 5C document does not reference the PAR. Some note to tie the two together should be made. In response to page 11 of the 5C document: July 2012 Jon Rosdahl (CSR)Slide 9

10. doc.: IEEE 802.11-12/0904r1 Submission Response from 802.3bm The 5C that was used is not the currently approved set of 5Cs that are required by 802 EC OM (see 11.5.2). –Accepted. Please see the attached 5C document. PG6, and all questions updated per latest 802 EC OM requirements. The title of the PAR and the 5C is different… The 5C document does not reference the PAR. Some note to tie the two together should be made. –Accepted. Please see the attached 5C document. PG4 In response to page 11 of the 5C document: –Thank you again. :) ;) July 2012 Jon Rosdahl (CSR)Slide 10

11. doc.: IEEE 802.11-12/0904r1 Submission 4. 802.3bn, amendment for Ethernet Passive Optical Networks Protocol over Coax Networks, PAR and 5C 8.1 please add an item number reference for the statement for which the acronym definition is being given. The title in the 5C seemed a bit different than the PAR title. Should it be Coax or Coax Networks? The 5c does not actually reference the PAR. In the 5C – Economic Feasibility: –What is OLT and CNU? The 5C that was used is not the currently approved set of 5Cs that are required by 802 EC OM (see 11.5.2). Please update and respond accordingly. July 2012 Jon Rosdahl (CSR)Slide 11

12. doc.: IEEE 802.11-12/0904r1 Submission Response from 802.bn Delete the current explanatory note under 8.1 Delete the last word (Networks) from the PAR title. Expand acronyms OLT and CNU in the Economic Feasibility response Use the Compatibility criterion as recorded in 802 EC OM 11.5.2, and add the following statement to the response: –– The PAR for P802.3bn mandates that the amendment shall comply with IEEE Std 802, IEEE Std 802.1D, and IEEE Std 802.1Q. Add a statement to the PAR, under 8.1 Additional Explanatory Notes: –– Item 5.2.b: The amendment will comply with IEEE Std 802, IEEE Std 802.1D, and IEEE Std 802.1Q.
