History

• SG approved March 2001– Presentations at Plenary and Interims– Proposed organization developed at Portland plenary

• Rules change for SC was recommended• September meeting was cancelled

– Study group extension motion missed in Austin• Extenuating circumstances

• Meeting as BoF at Dallas interim and St. Louis plenary– LMSC rule change not desired – TAG preferred

• Attendance has consistently shown strong interest (40+ attendees at each BoF)

Submission

Goals of COEX TAG

• A committee that reviews and makes coexistence recommendations to ExCom on current or proposed PARs and WG draft standards within the established wireless WGs of the IEEE802 standards body– The functional charter of this new group is to

address the wireless coexistence issues across all wireless WGs

– Chartered to write guidelines for addressing coexistence of draft standards prior to sponsor ballot

July 2001



Submission

Functional Charter Discussion• First order of business: Define Coexistence and the Recommended

Procedures for establishing whether a draft has adequately addressed coexistence– For example, a WG should develop a set of usage models and

demonstrate through analysis or simulation the impact of the proposed standard on other approved IEEE wireless standards

• This group is responsible for reviewing all unlicensed wireless proposed PARs– The group generates a report to ExCom relative to coexistence with

published wireless standards and those in the development process– This report shall be used by ExCom as a technical expert opinion for

evaluating the proposed PAR• This group is responsible for generating a final conformance report of

the Draft Standard prior to Sponsor Ballot– This report will be presented to the sponsoring WG and ExCom and a

copy will be sent to the Chairs of all other wireless WGs within IEEE802– Evaluates the Draft Standard against the Recommended Procedures for

Coexistence

Submission

802 COEX Proposed Procedures• Membership & Voting

– Attendance at the 802 COEX Tag meetings is open to registered attendees

– WG chairs are members ex officio– WG chairs designate official liaisons (3)– Attendees: attendance at first meeting grants membership– TAG follows WG rules after that– Attendance at 802 COEX TAG meetings will count towards attendance at

the individual’s primary WG• WG chairs would have to agree to this

• Ratification of guidelines– A guideline requires a 75% approval vote by the members of the 802

COEX TAG as outlined above– The guideline is then presented to ExCom and the appropriate wireless

WG(s)• Minority opinion summary would be included
