31.1. VC1: There were some meetings this week to discuss PARs from other working groups. All of our comments were accepted and there is nothing controversial. 31.2. No questions

32. IEEE 802.11 Network Observations

32.1. Rick Alfin (Verilan): I just wanted to give you some feedback about the IEEE 802.11 network here. This venue is quite nice with a 200 Mb link from the hotel. We have 54 APs serving 800 people. 32.2. In addition to this meeting, we now serve larger meetings up to 1800 people in other venues (e.g. iCAN in Prague). This was served using 11n APs. 32.3. So, IEEE 802.11 works and it works well. 32.4. Chair: Note, that we’re not actually running 11n APs here in our meetings. 32.5. No questions

33. IEEE 802.16 Study Group (11-12-0973r0)

33.1. IEEE 802.16 Chair: This is a follow up from the presentation given in the May 2012 meeting. 33.2. This is a presentation about the HetNet and Metrology study groups. There will be two PARs presented at the EC this afternoon for new groups today. 33.3. Chair: I understand that the HetNet project may have an impact on IEEE 802.11. Therefore I’ve tried to indicate when these meetings occur. Would it be possible to have cross credits between 802.16 and 802.11 to encourage cross participation. Perhaps we need to start doing this in September. 33.4. IEEE 802.16 Chair: Sure, perhaps we can try and co-ordinate slots in September. I’m sure we can do something with IMAT. 33.5. VC1: IEEE 802.16 will be in Indian Wells in September 2012 33.6. No questions

34. WG Committee Reports (11-12-0734r0)

34.1. Technical editor (slide #7) 34.1.1. C: If you recall TGmb have out their awards for IEEE 802.11-2012 on Wednesday. But we forgot to mention Jon Rosdahl who contributed to TGmb quite extensively. I would like to mention and congratulate him for his efforts.

34.2. WNG SC (slide #15) 34.2.1. There were 9 presentations this week with an extensive amount of work and discussions. 34.2.2. Chair: One topic within WNG SC was “Cellular Oriented Wi-Fi” (item 3 on slide #15) which generated a lot of off-line interest. Therefore I propose that during the September 2012 meeting, the Tuesday evening WNG SC be targeted at this topic. Something like carried orientated WLAN may be a suitable title. I will ask the presenter of this topic to return in September and possibly re-present on this topic. However, I think that a call for presentations on this topic is also appropriate. In addition, I think it’s a little early to start a specific study group on this topic. 34.2.3. VC1: Focusing the WNG SC on this one topic will be the only meeting on the Tuesday evening with a room size of 250. 34.2.4. Chair: There should also be a tutorial presentation from the IEEE 802.11 community, in order to educate to the carriers, e.g. unlicensed as opposed to licensed spectrum use. 34.2.5. WNG SC Chair: Another option is to adopt specific Interest Groups (IG) 34.2.6. C: This “cellular” topic is not going to go away. Carriers are terrified about this, and 95% of Internet traffic is now running over wired and wireless (IEEE 802.11) links. Of course, they have a difference in perception regarding performance. More and more devices will have dual mode cellular and WLAN radios. Therefore we need to organize ourselves to work this through with the carrier people. There must be 6 or 7 other SDOs and for a working on this topic. 34.2.7. Chair: I encourage you to prepare some material for September please. 34.2.8. A: Sure, I will. 34.2.9. C: This is not a new topic and please remember that this is a volunteer project, so we need contributions.

34.3. ARC (slide #18) 34.3.1. Q: What is TRILL 34.3.2. A: I can’t remember, but it will come up again later in this meeting.

34.4. JTC1 SC (slide #23) 34.4.1. Please remember that this is an IEEE 802 level group. 34.4.2. Q: We have had conflicts between ISO SC6 meetings and IEEE 802.11. Can this be resolved? 34.4.3. A: We have requested this, and just hope it’s taken into account.

34.5. Regulatory SC (slide #28) 34.5.1. No questions

34.6. TGac (slide #35) 34.6.1. No questions

34.7. TGad (slide #39) 34.7.1. No questions

34.8. TGaf (slide #46) 34.8.1. Please note that document 11-12-0877r0 should be 11-12-0866r0 in the slides. 34.8.2. No questions

34.9. TGah (slide #53) 34.9.1. Chair: Are either your old or new secretaries here, to thank them for their help? 34.9.2. C: No, but we can thank them anyway. 34.9.3. No questions

34.10. TGai (slide #58) 34.10.1. No questions

34.11. CMMW Study Group (slide #71) 34.11.1. Assuming the PAR is approved at the EC today, the task group will be entitled “IEEE 802.11aj” 34.11.2. Chair: Comments may occur at the EC meeting today, not NesCom as stated in the slides. 34.11.3. Chair: Some people were anticipating attending the first meeting in Beijing. There will be a letter of invitation from the IEEE office in Beijing for visa applications. So, I’d like to know how many people in the room, intend to go to this meeting, who are not Chinese Citizens. 34.11.4. 2 people. 34.11.5. Q: So how will attendance be recorded? 34.11.6. Chair: There will be effectively two interims in September, one in Beijing and one in Indian Wells. There is a document that discusses all the logistics. 34.11.7. Q: Will this group of people also meeting in Indian Wells? 34.11.8. Chair: They can do if they wish, but there’s no association between them. There will be no CMMW SG meetings at the Indian Wells meeting in September.
