IEEE P802.15 Working Group for Wireless Personal Area NetworksTM Proposal for an IEEE 802 Wireless Coexistence Group Steve Shellhammer, Symbol Technologies Al Petrick, Parker Vision
Current Coexistence Organization • TG2 is within 802.15 Working Group • All 802.11 members are encouraged to participate • Voting members of 802.15 can vote • Only 802.11 liaisons to 802.15 can vote in TG2 • Both 802.11 and 802.15 vote on the Recommended Practice Steve Shellhammer, Symbol Technologies Al Petrick, Parker Vision
New Proposed Organization • A Fully Joint Coexistence Task Group. • Multiple Co-Chairmen • Steve Shellhammer (802.15) • New co-chair (802.11) • New co-chair (802.16) • TG meetings part of both 802.11, 802.15 and 802.16 meeting plans • All 802.11, 802.15 and 802.16 can vote. Steve Shellhammer, Symbol Technologies Al Petrick, Parker Vision
New Proposed Organization • New title: Wireless Coexistence Task Group • Jointly address all 802 Wireless Coexistence Issues • A forum for collaboration between 802.11, 802.15 and 802.16 on all issues of coexistence arising with Wireless 802 Working Groups Steve Shellhammer, Symbol Technologies Al Petrick, Parker Vision
New Proposed Organization • This new structure meets the two needs of the 802 Wireless Working Groups • A joint forum to address all wireless coexistence issues of of relevance to the IEEE 802 • Participants of the Wireless Coexistence Task Group can maintain membership in their “home” Working Group.
