  1. Placement Options 802 Handoff ECSG Postion Statement

  2. Type Of Standard • 802.1 has concentrated on 802 level architectural standards, albeit not exclusively. • There appears to be a default mapping between 802 handover and 802.1 based on the media access independent nature of the 802 handover proposal.

  3. Wired and Wireless Focus • 802.1 emphasized wired technology (E.G. 802.1X is a wired-focused standard). • The handover standard will probably be used most commonly by wireless users, however it must necessarily address both the wired and wireless cases simultaneously. • As a separate WG we are in a position to attract people with the skill to address both wired and wireless domains. 802.1 has a large majority of people with a wire oriented skill set.

  4. Liasons • We believe a WG focused on handover issues as we currently understand them needs to have a focused and vigorous liaison process with other important standardization bodies. E.G. The IETF, 3GPP and 3GPP2. • Liaison for this work need to be focused on specific IETF efforts and cellular standards that wouldn’t normally interface with the wired focused standards groups in IEEE.

  5. Avoiding Imposition on 802.1 • We anticipate putting a significant amount of effort into working and communicating technical issues with other standards bodies both external and internal to the IEEE, particularly wireless groups. • Since these interactions should be made at a WG level, this would imply a substantial increment to the workload in 802.1 while 802.1 is heavily occupied with LinkSec and HiLi.

  6. Interworking with IEEE Groups • We expect in interim and ad hoc sessions we would be seeking to co-locate with other wireless groups in order to coordinate technically. E.G. 802.11, 802.16, 802.20. • The organizational benefits from 802.1’s meeting organization efforts are not felt by the handover group. We would be benefiting equally from the meeting organization efforts of other groups. • Therefore one of the priniciple reasons for locating disjoint work within a WG (I.E. organizational effort sharing) does not apply.

  7. EC Representation • A number of organizations attach high importance to these interworking efforts within the IEEE. • It is felt that to achieve appropriate representation, EC representation is necessary to defend the interests of the group.
