  11. ETSI TC BRAN#83 • June 23-26, 2015 • Submissions discussed: • BRAN(15)000097a2_3GPP_Work_Item_on_Licensed-Assisted_Access_to_Unlicensed_Spectrum • BRAN(15)000062r1_A_proposal_for_a_path_forward_for_EN_301_398_in_ETSI_BRAN • BRAN(15)000064 • BRAN(15)000065  Broadcom indicated that these three documents (64, 65 and 66 basically support 62r1, so they were not displayed • BRAN(15)000066 • BRAN(15)000071_On_LBT_parameters • BRAN(15)000072_On_Uplink_LBT_options • BRAN(15)000073_On_the_adaptivity_clause_for_LBE_in_EN_301_893 • BRAN(15)000074_On_adaptivity_rules_for_LBE_in_EN_301_893 • BRAN(15)000077_Status_and_summary_conclusions_of_3GPP_licensed_assisted_acc • BRAN(15)000078_Directions_for_the_content_of_Adaptivity_clause_in_EN_301_89 • BRAN(15)000079_Adaptivity_requirements_for_load_based_equipment • BRAN(15)000079r1_Adaptivity_requirements_for_load_based_equipment • BRAN(15)000078_Directions_for_the_content_of_Adaptivity_clause_in_EN_301_893 • BRAN(15)000094_A_review_of_document_BRAN_15_000078 • BRAN(15)000095_Ericsson_comments_to_submitted_Adaptivity_contributions

  12. ETSI TC BRAN#83 • Discussion of the Cisco document (62r1) was extensive. The Chair asked to continue with it on Thursday, so that we could get through review all of the coexistence documents. Cisco contends that the 3GPP simulations did not consider enough hidden node scenarios, so this also generated considerable discussion. • The flowchart included in a number of submissions generated additional discussion, and was also pushed to Thursday. • The afternoon session covered DA2GC harmonised standards, so the coexistence discussion continued informally in another room. Progress was slow on finding a technology neutral means of determining what technology the energy detected is. Cisco proposes using a Wi-Fi preamble, but others, including the UK regulator says this is not acceptable as it is not technology neutral. • The coexistence meeting resumed at 5:45pm and introduced all the rest of the documents on this subject matter.

  13. ETSI TC BRAN#83 • Thursday morning was dedicated to completing review of submissions, and attempting to develop some compromises. The schedule for the afternoon included discussion of Radio Equipment Directive compliance for 5 GHz (EN 301 893), as well as for 60 GHz (EN 302 567), and a WFA request to greatly simplify the sharing rules in 60 GHz. During the section of 60 GHz, a group spilt off to discuss Wi-Fi and LAA-LTE coexistence. • The coexistence discussion revolved around Cisco document 94, which was an attempt to answer the Ericsson document 78. • Document 94 attempted to provide details to the flowchart in document 74, presented on Wednesday. This discussion took most of the morning with many disagreements on the unwritten details of the flowchart. However, the group that split off in the afternoon reached a much better understanding by all on how Wi-Fi does CCA and Extended CCA, and the complexity of managing coexistence when the 802.11 QoS method is taken into account. Rich Kennedy, MediaTek

  14. ETSI TC BRAN#83 • By the time this meeting broke up, around 6:30pm, there was a much better coming together of the two sides, and it now appears what was contentious before has now become a joint exercise to solve the difficult problem. This will be discussed during the Friday closing plenary, • In the RE-D compliance discussions, the WFA submission for 5 GHz was basically accepted with minor changes, but it became clear that not even the regulators are certain what data is needed for receiver characterization. We convinced the regulators present that they should discuss this and come back to us with a definitive set of parameters they believe will we need to provide to meet the Directive, by the middle of August.

  15. ETSI TC BRAN#83 • In the discussion of 60 GHz, the receiver requirements also need to be defined. The UK regulator said that by adding a clause on Listen Before Talk to EN 302 567, the 802.11ad should meet the adaptivity requirements of the Directive. • TC BRAN met again Friday to review the work, set forth any new Work Items, and complete and approve the meeting minutes • There will be an informal teleconference to advance the discussion on coexistence • A summary of the informal meeting at the BRAN session is in document BRAN(15)000100r3_Results_of_informal_Offline_discussions_that_took_place_Wedn.docx • The meeting minutes are in document BRAN(15)000106_Plenary_meeting_minutes.docx

  16. ETSI TC BRAN#83 Follow up • French regulator, Olivier Pellay, has established a living document for development of a “final” coexistence plan • BRAN(15)000107 • https://docbox.etsi.org/BRAN/BRAN/05-CONTRIBUTIONS/2015//BRAN(15)000107_Working_document_on_coexistence_issues.docx Rich Kennedy, MediaTek

  17. ETSI ERM TG11#43 • June 29-July 2, 2015 • RED compliance – Receiver Requirements • TG11 tried more carefully to link this issue to the actual wording in the Directive • There was a presentation that took a radically different approach by Jan Kruys • ERMTG11(15)000032r1_A_Technology_Neutral_Metric_for_assessing_Receiver_Performan • ERMTG11(15)000040_Introduction_to_doc_TG11_15__00032r1 • Much confusion over what is needed to meet RED requirements • From BRAN, regulators agreed to clarify this by the middle of August • Receiver blocking levels added to latest revision of the HS • Jan was asked to return with an edited version based on the discussions

  18. RED Details WRT Receivers • (10) In order to ensure that radio equipment uses the radio spectrum effectivelyand supports the efficient use of radio spectrum, radio equipment should be constructed so that: in the case of a transmitter, when the transmitter is properly installed, maintained and used for its intended purpose it generates radio waves emissions that do not create harmful interference, while unwanted radio waves emissions generated by the transmitter (e.g. in adjacent channels) with a potential negative impact on the goals of radio spectrum policy should be limited to such a level that, according to the state of the art, harmful interference is avoided; and, in the case of a receiver, it has a level of performance that allows it to operate as intended and protects it against the risk of harmful interference, in particular from shared or adjacent channels, and, in so doing, supports improvements in the efficient use of shared or adjacent channels • (11) Although receivers do not themselves cause harmful interference, reception capabilities are an increasingly important factor in ensuring the efficient use of radio spectrum by way of an increased resilience of receivers against harmful interference and unwanted signalson the basis of the relevant essential requirements of Union harmonisation legislation

  19. ETSI ERM TG11#43 • Wireless Industrial Automation group proposal was basically dismissed as not meeting requirements • Engineer at Emerson was on GoToMeeting • It was obvious he was poorly prepared and was not clear on the requirement or his presentation, which was written by someone now retired • He promised to come back with another try in September • Meeting minutes are in document ERMTG11(15)000031r1_Minutes_of_the_43nd_meeting_of_TG11.doc • There will be a GoToMeeting session on August 27th • New approach to Receiver Requirements • http://webapp.etsi.org/MeetingCalendar/MeetingDetails.asp?mid=17047 Rich Kennedy, MediaTek

  20. Globalstar TLPS Update • Terrestrial Low Power Service in 2483.5-2496 MHz • 2+ years in the works • FCC set up informal testing (the Demo) at FCC headquarters • Globalstar reported there was no interference into Wi-Fi or Bluetooth • All Globalstar equipment is enterprise grade • Testing had to include consumer grade equipment as well • CableLabs test report shows 65% degradation on channel 11 • Bluetooth SIG reported severe interference • Globalstar disputes all test results that do not agree with theirs • FCC still undecided; is very concerned about interference into Wi-Fi Rich Kennedy, MediaTek

  21. ECC Decisions • Intelligent Transport System (ITS) • The ECC approved revisions of ECC Decision (08)01 (ITS in the band 5 875 – 5 905 MHz) and ECC Recommendation (08)01 (ITS in the band 5 855 – 5 875 MHz). The amendments include a broadening of the scope of these deliverables to include all types of ITS traffic safety and traffic efficiency communications. As a result from additional compatibility studies with regards to improved co-existence with road tolling applications and fixed service links in the adjacent spectrum, it also takes into account modifications to the technical conditions and the possible use of mitigation techniques. • Broadband Direct Air To Ground Communications • The ECC approved two new ECC Decisions (15)02 and (15)03 for Direct Air to Ground Communications in the frequency bands 1900-1920 MHzand 5855-5875 MHz respectively. With these Decisions, the ECC has provided a regulatory framework for harmonized use opportunities in Europe for stakeholders for the respective air-to-ground (ATG) connectivity in support of the increasing demand for inflight entertainment (IFE) applications in commercial airplanes. Rich Kennedy, MediaTek

  22. ECC Decisions • Earth Stations Onboard Mobile Platforms • No impact on 802.11/15 bands or adjacent bands • Obstacle Detection Radars for Helicopter Use • A new draft ECC Decision on the harmonised use of the frequency range 76-77 GHz for obstacle detection radars for helicopter use was approved for public consultation… • Wireless Mobile Communications Onboard Vessels • Amendments of ECC Decision (08)08 were approved for public consultation. This is an extension of the regulatory framework for mobile services on board vessels to cover GSM in the bands 880-915/925-960 MHz and 1710-1785/1805-1880 MHz, UMTS in the band 1920-1980 / 2110-2170 MHz and LTE (5 MHz channel bandwidth only) in the bands 1710-1785/1805-1880 MHz and 2500-2570/2620-2690 MHz. Rich Kennedy, MediaTek

  23. ECC Decisions • 700 MHz • The ECC agreed a roadmap, which provides a revised schedule and identifies the required tasks for the delivery of a final CEPT Report in response to the EC mandate on 700 MHz. The CEPT Report B will be developed on the basis of ECC Decision 15 (01) on the harmonised technical conditions for Mobile/Fixed Communications Networks (MFCN) in the band 694-790 MHz. • 2300-2400 MHz • CEPT Report 58 in response to the EC mandate on the 2.3 GHz band and dealing with technical solutions for the shared use of the 2300-2400 MHz band for wireless broadband application and Programme Making and Special Events (PMSE) applications, was approved, together with the new Recommendation (15)04 which includes guidance for the implementation of a sharing framework between Mobile/Fixed Communications Networks (MFCN) and PMSE within 2300-2400 MHz. Rich Kennedy, MediaTek

  24. ECC Decisions • 2500-2690 MHz: • the amended ECC Decision (05)05 on the harmonised utilisation of spectrum for MFCN operating within the band 2500-2690 MHz was approved with an extended scope which covers now the designation of the band for MFCN. • Machine-to-Machine applications: • A new ECC Report on M2M applications (Machine-to- Machine) in the 733-736MHz / 788-791MHz band was approved for public consultation. This ECC Report contains compatibility studies for LTE-based and GSM-based M2M systems with the services in adjacent bands as identified in ECC Decision (15) 01. • The ECC also decided to organise a CEPT Workshop in 2016 on M2M applications. The scope of the workshop will be broader than just M2M over public mobile networks in order to include also the various other wireless services which can serve M2M applications.
