  1. IEEE P802.15Wireless Personal Area Network Steps to Making an IEEE 802 Standard Tom Siep, Texas Instruments

  2. Overview You are here Tom Siep, Texas Instruments

  3. Project Authorization • Study Group Formation • Study Group Recommendation • Submission to ExCom (IEEE 802 Exec Committee) • PAR • 5 Criteria (+1) • ExCom approval • Standards Board Tom Siep, Texas Instruments

  4. Establish Criteria for Standard • Call for Proposals • Required characteristics • Desired characteristics • Evaluate Proposals • Choose direction • Combine proposals--or-- • Select proposal Tom Siep, Texas Instruments

  5. Prepare Draft for Circulation • Task Group Activity • Create--or-- • Format • Fill in outline (next presentation) • Submit to WorkingGroup Tom Siep, Texas Instruments

  6. Working Group Letter Ballot • Electronic Balloting • Must have not outstanding issues • Text available only to voting members • 10 to 45 days • Votes can be: • “Abstain” • “Approve” • “Do not Approve” Tom Siep, Texas Instruments

  7. Working Group Reviews Returned Ballots • Votes entered into Resolution Database • All “Do Not Approve” votes must be answered • They must have specific reasons for disapproval AND what it would take to change vote to “Approve” Tom Siep, Texas Instruments

  8. Resolvable Negatives? • Determination made if possible to change draft to satisfy comment and not get new “Do Not Approve” votes • Must have 70% approval to proceed Tom Siep, Texas Instruments

  9. Make Changes to Obtain WG Approval • Task Group Activity • Change only items that are effected by comments • Tries to avoid creating new “Do Not Approve” votes Tom Siep, Texas Instruments

  10. Technical Changes? • Two classes of comments • Editorial: does not effect the implementation of the Standard • Technical: effects implementation • Some technical changes may havebeen made in reviewprocess duringmeeting Tom Siep, Texas Instruments

  11. Working Group Confirmation Ballot • Electronic Ballot • Confirms that any changes made do not invalidate previous “Approve” votes of those not at meeting Tom Siep, Texas Instruments

  12. Sponsor Ballot • Voters qualified from a Sponsor Ballot Pool • Must be IEEE-SA member • Everyone in this room should be Sponsor Ballot Voters! Tom Siep, Texas Instruments

  13. New Negative Votes? • Votes entered into Resolution Database • All “Do Not Approve” votes must be answered • They must have specific reasons for disapproval AND what it would take to change vote to “Approve” Tom Siep, Texas Instruments

  14. Proceed to Standards Board Approval • Determination made if possible to change draft to satisfy comment and not get new “Do Not Approve” votes • Must have 70% approval to proceed • Standards Board generally followsSponsor Ballotlead Tom Siep, Texas Instruments
