7.1. The status of each group was presented.7.2. Some extra notes not covered in the slides:

7.2.1. Editor’s Meeting: This occurs at 7am on Tuesday morning7.2.2. Q: regarding the possible re-ordering of amendments, this is usual done at an interim

meeting. Why the change to this plenary?7.2.3. A: it’s because the last interim was lightly attended and this task was not done.7.2.4. PAR SC: This new SC will formalize the review of PARs from other IEEE 802 working

groups. There are 6 PARs to be reviewed this week.7.2.5. WNG: There is one meeting on Tuesday morning to consider future topics for IEEE

802.11. There are currently 2 presentations.7.2.6. Q: So, the 2nd presentation is not on the server.7.2.7. A: Yes. Perhaps the author can upload it please.7.2.8. JTC1/SC6: We have reduced the number of meeting slots this week.7.2.9. TGak:7.2.10. Chair: What do you mean by level of quality in your amendment?7.2.11. A: It’s a question of how it much it needs to be polished before letter ballot.7.2.12. Chair: I would advise that going out to letter ballot early is a bad thing and ensure that

there are no TBDs in the document.7.2.13. TGaq: received 75 comments from the comment collection.7.2.14. TGax: There are about 48 presentations this week, although some were uploaded after

the deadline.7.2.15. NG60:7.2.16. Chair: The approval for the study group is actually 4 months, not 6 months.7.2.17. VC1: There is a set of motion templates which is available from the main IEEE 802.11

9.1. C: I’d like to add an item to discuss attendance credit prosecution9.2. Chair: Yes, I’ll add it to the end of the agenda.9.3. Any objection to accepting this change to the agenda.9.4. Moved: Phil Barber, Second: Richard Kennedy9.5. No objections, so moved and approved.

10. Call for Essential Patents

10.1. Call for essential patents10.2. No statements were made.

11. CAC (Chair’s Advisory Committee)

11.1. Reminder about the CAC meeting at 19:30 on Thursday. Need to consider documentation for the IEEE 802 Executive Committee (EC) meeting on Friday.

12. Announcements (11-14-1324r0)

12.1. EC Workshop (slide #11)12.2. Chair: If you have any comments or questions, please send a personal email to the chair.

12.3. Reciprocal Credit12.4. VC1: In other WGs, such as the 802 EC Privacy Study Group. Various IEEE 802.11 members

attended this meeting last night and you are entitled, as IEEE 802.11 members, to have reciprocal credit. However, there is some confusion as to how this is done. The main point is that you have to click on your attendance within the WG that you are at; in this case the 802 EC Privacy Study Group and not an IEEE 802.11 group meeting, which happens to be meeting at the same time.

12.5. Q: When the attendance server asks for your affiliation, which one is this?12.6. A: It’s your affiliation within the context of that meeting which you are attending.12.7. Q: Does the attendance server ask which group you want the credit to go to?12.8. Chair: It depends how many WGs you have voting rights in/12.9. VC1: Please remember that this is only for maintaining voting rights, not gaining them.12.10. C: The IMAT attendance tool, should tell you all your credits in various WGs.

12.11. Social12.12. Due to the wet weather, it will now on the second floor in the Lone Star ballroom.

13. Wi-Fi Alliance (WFA) Liaison (11-14-1506r0)

13.1. Several interesting topics are currently going on within the WFA based on IEEE 802.11 specifications and amendments.

13.2. The last meeting was in Berlin in October 2014.13.3. Some recent certifications include:

13.3.1. Wi-Fi Direct Services13.3.2. Hotspot 2.0 Release 2

13.4. The next meeting will be in Seoul in February 201513.5. Q: In the JTC1 study group, a discussion was mentioned about the ISO/IEC China National

Body discussing WFA Hotspot 2.0 at the last ISO/IEC JTC1 SC6 meeting in London. Shouldn’t be there an open discussion between the WFA and IEEE 802.11 about this.

13.6. A: Perhaps we could have a liaison about this.13.7. Chair: Perhaps Andrew Myles, as chair of the JTC1 group, can organize something.13.8. Q: What about “ah” activities within the WFA?13.9. A: I usually only mention this once the activity is fully underway within the WFA.

14. IETF Liaison (11-14-1479r1)

14.1. No questions14.2. C: During the IETF next week in Honolulu, there will be a Privacy Wi-Fi trial and provide a

segmented VLAN, one of which will provide randomized MAC addresses.14.3. More information is available here.

14.3.1. 3GPP: Please see the liaison in document 11-14-1411r0. Stephen McCann will look after this, during TGmc on Wednesday PM2 and has prepared a submission 11-14-1421r0.

15. Co-existance Lessons Learned

15.1. This is an IEEE 802.19 activity, but there is now also an IEEE 802.11 document 11-14-1482r2 which is on the server for member’s review and comments.

15.2. Then there will be a presentation made to 3GPP RAN in Maui, Hawaii, on December 10th. Paul Nikolich is currently the designee to go and make this IEEE 802.19 presentation.

15.3. Chair: What’s the process for the IEEE 802.11 review?15.4. A: Nothing at the moment, except that there some interested IEEE 802.11 watching this.15.5. Chair: Please can you send an email to the IEEE 802.11 reflector when it is finally available.

16. Room Changes (11-14-1322r2)

16.1. Please can REG Thurs AM1 be cancelled?16.2. Please can TGak have the Wed PM1 slot.16.3. Please can the NG60 Thurs PM2 be cancelled?16.4. Please can TGai have Thurs PM2.16.5. Chair: All these are possible.16.6. Motion to approve these changes

16.6.1. Moved Donald Eastlake, 2nd Mark Hamilton16.6.2. No objection to approving by unanimous consent.

17. IEEE 802 and Wi-Fi Alliance (11-14-1324r0 slide #12)

17.1. Chair: I attended the Wi-Fi Alliance (WFA) in Berlin (October 2014) and spoke to the board of directors.

17.2. In response to this, there is a meeting now scheduled for Seoul, Korea on Friday 13th February 2015. There will be a report generated from that meeting for IEEE 802.11 members.

17.3. Q: Is this joint discussion open to all IEEE 802.11 members.17.4. Chair: It’s been described as an executive summit, so it’s not open. The reason for this is

because there may be WFA confidential items discussed. Please note that by co-incidence all members of the IEEE 802.11 executive board are also WFA members through their companies.

18. Next Generation Positioning Proposal (11-14-1373r0)

18.1. This is a repeat of WNG SC presentations from the Athens (September 2014) and this meeting.18.2. No questions

19. Working Group Motions (11-14-1329r0 slide #4)

19.1. Positioning Study Group creation19.1.1. Request approval by IEEE 802 LMSC to form an 802.11 Study Group to investigate

the requirements and feasibility of improved 802.11 based positioning as described in 11-14-1193-01-0wng-beyond-indoor-navigation.pptx with the intent of

creating a PAR and a CSD.19.1.2. Moved by: Jonathan Segev, 2nd by: Carlos Aldana19.1.3. For: 136, Against: 0, Abstain: 4 (Motion passes)19.1.4. Chair: I would like to suggest Jonathan Segev as chair pro-tem to the IEEE 802 Executive

Meeting on Friday.

20. Guidance on rules for allocation of last Element IDs (11-14-1324r0 slide #13)

20.1. Chair: At the moment TGai are currently requesting half of the remaining Element IDs. I’m trying to decide what we should next about possible extensions? I suggest a first come, first served rule.

20.2. Chair: TGmc are going to propose a new mechanism.20.3. C: I would like to suggest that each new TG has one existing Element IDs, and then they have

to use the new mechanism for any others. Therefore each amendment has a primary number.20.4. C: I agree with the last point, but we should only have one extension mechanism20.5. C: One extension mechanism created by TGmc is essential.20.6. C: Perhaps the existing Element IDs should be only used for Beacon purposes. Another

alternative is to revoke some of the more recent numbers allocated for TGah and TGai.20.7. C: Could the ANA possibly wait for TGmc to come up with a new mechanism first, before we

make a decision?20.8. C: Perhaps these numbers should be restricted to just one value for each TG.

November 2014 doc.: IEEE 802.11-14/1414r0

20.9. C: Another option is to ask TGai to produce a new mechanism themselves.20.10. C: What is the benefit of reserving a single Element ID for each TG? The numbers will run

out anyway?20.11. C: Please can we have a decision this week, as TGai needs to know what direction to go in.20.12. C: TGai has an urgent need to solve this, so give the problem to them.20.13. Chair: Let’s consider a technical proposal on this for the Friday plenary. However, we do

need to be fair to TGai’s request for a decision this week.

21. IEEE 802.3 Next Generation Base-T PHY (11-14-1385r0)

21.1. IEEE 802.3 is asking IEEE 802.11 for interest in a potential new group to look at improving Ethernet Cat 5 speeds to accommodate backhaul rates for IEEE 802.11ac. Also most switches use 1000 Base-T ports.

21.2. Chair: What are you looking for from IEEE 802.1121.3. A: Closer co-ordination between IEEE 802.11 and IEEE 802.3, especially from the Enterprise

Access Point market.21.4. Q: I think this is very sensible. But why just Enterprise.21.5. A: That’s just because it was an easy use case to describe.21.6. C: The WFA doesn’t use the terms Wave 1 and Wave 2 by the way.21.7. C: There is also the video and digital broadcast community to consider, as they use HD video

at 3 Gbps. Can they be also considered in this project?21.8. Q: Last night the call for interest was very successful within IEEE 802.3. Will there be a call

for an IEEE 802.3 study group on Friday?21.9. A: There will be a motion for this study group in IEEE 802.3 on Thursday evening around

5pm, which if successful will then go to the EC on Friday. There will be some wireless people there, so everyone else is welcome.

21.10. Chair: Are there any volunteers who can attend this meeting please?21.11. Chair: I see 4 or 5 people.21.12. C: IEEE 802.11 keeps increasing our data rates and throughputs. Therefore I think IEEE

802.11 should support such a group.

22. IEEE 802c PAR (11-14-1324r0 slide #17)

22.1. Chair: There is currently a conflict between two desires as to how this technology should be used, so IEEE 802.11 has provided some comments back to IEEE 802.1 who are handling this PAR. I am currently of the opinion to vote against this at the IEEE 802 EC meeting on Friday.

22.2. VC1: The comments that were supplied to IEEE 802.1 about this PAR are contained in 11-14-1339r0. It is felt that an IEEE 802 EC group should be created to address the concerns of all stakeholders.

22.3. C: I think the comment on 1339r0 slide #7 is the correct remedy. Otherwise, I don’t think the current proposal meets the needs of IEEE 802.11.

WG Chair hands over the chair to VC1.

23. Attendance Credit Prosecution (11-14-1324r0 slide #17)

23.1. C: I have some minor comments about the chair’s email about attendance during meetings, regarding the statement “If someone inappropriately registers there attendance, then it will be

silently discarded”. I think that the member should be notified, so that they can appeal if they disagree.

23.2. C: This is describing a process for people who registered for a meeting that did not occur on Tuesday evening. Each of these people were notified that they received no credit for doing this. They should not have done this. If their attendance drops below 75% because of this, then that is what happens. I think the rules allow the chair to do this.

23.3. C: If a meeting is recessed after 1 hour, when does the 75% rule apply.23.4. A: However long it lasts. So if it’s 5 minutes long, about 3 minutes in to that.23.5. C: I was one of these people and was wrong. But I could not find the attendance credit for the

802 EC privacy meeting that I was actually in.23.6. VC1 (as chair): Please contact me if you have issue with attendance. This is stated during the

opening plenary. In this instance, you did receive an indication of the issue. For people who were in the 802 EC Privacy Meeting this has been resolved.

23.7. C: Perhaps the attendance rules need to be considered against openness and allowing members to contribute.

23.8. C: Our membership is very important. As far as transparency is concerned, members should have the right to appeal. I understand the chair’s positon, but I also see member’s rights.

23.9. C: Please if chairs do cancel meetings, they should let people know as soon as possible. Last night TGax was cancelled quite late and several people turned up in genuine faith of that meeting occurring.

23.10. C: Perhaps the attendance credit threshold should be changes to 72% to make it a multiple of 6%.

23.11. C: There is an IEEE 802 appeals process which can be followed by any member. Any member has the right to appeal by following this process.

23.12. C: If I make errors please can it not be silent.23.13. C: So, the chair will inform people directly if they do not reach the 75% limit at the end of the

week.23.14. C: As TGax chair, I sent the cancellation email 90 minutes before the evening session started.23.15. VC1 (as chair): We also usually put a paper sign and last night that did not happen.23.16. C: I recall that several people come into the editor’s meeting on a Tuesday morning at 7.50am

and claim attendance.23.17. C: Immediate notification of an incorrect attendance is just as easy as at the end of the week.23.18. C: Meetings should not be cancelled. We are paying for the use of rooms and meetings

should be run correctly. Last night two of the three meetings were cancelled and therefore I suggest better management by the chairs to avoid this.

23.19. C: thank you for the statement by the chair about notification of errors to members.23.20. C: The chair can also upload a table of those members how have lost their attendance.23.21. C: I really appreciate the modern electronic attendance system. It is so much better than the

old books and sign-in sheets.23.22. C: I agree that this issue is within the chair’s discretion. It may be a breach of ethics for a

member to not sign in correctly. However, this should be a matter for the Ethics board, not the chair’s discretion.

23.23. C: I believe that falsifying their attendance records is unethical. However, as to whether it is ethical or unethical is irrelevant to the action that the chair takes with attendance records.

23.24. C: To be clear, I think the email should have said “an administrative question” rather than “an ethics question”.

39. Short Element IDs (11-14-1324r1 slide #25)

39.1. Chair: There was a document that was approved in TGmc, so that there is now a new mechanism for Element ID extensions. One consequence of this is that the TGai requests can still be satisfied.

39.2. There are two suggested mechanisms for allocation of Element IDs:39.2.1. First come, first served39.2.2. Controlled

39.3. Once all Element IDs are allocated, then the new mechanism is adopted.39.4. Q: Does the special list include all Beacons “like” frames?39.5. Chair: So would you like to change the text for Controlled?39.6. A: Yes, can we use the word “beacon-like” please?39.7. C: There should be a mechanism whereby special frames can also be considered, which are not

“beacon-like”.39.8. Chair: So, I’ll soften the language with the words “intended for”.39.9. C: I think the re-use of Element IDs for new frequency bands is actually ok.39.10. Chair: ok, I’ll add that.39.11. Straw Poll: Do you prefer:

39.11.1. “First come first served”: 039.11.2. “Controlled”: 52

39.11.3. Something else: 039.12. Chair: That’s quite clear. Therefore we will have a motion for some TGai allocations in this

meeting at a later point.

40. EPD for IEEE 802.11 5.9 GHz Operations (11-14-1521r1)

40.1. This is regarding Intelligent Transport Systems (ITS) operation in the 5.9 GHz band. The issue is that only IEEE 802.11 uses LPD encoding as opposed to EPD (which is used by many other technologies) and therefore the first 6 bytes of an IEEE 802.11 header are the same value. By changing the encoding, 6 bytes can be saved in every packet. Additionally IEEE 802-2014 mandates its use.

40.2. There is also some more information in 11-14-1522r2, which suggests changes to IEEE 802.11-2012 and would be dealt with, within TGmc.

40.3. Q: I agree that it’s a good idea to remove these 6 bytes. However, I don’t think its backward compatible. So, I’m hesitant to do this. Also doesn’t this effect the IP header encoding?

40.4. Chair: It should be possible to add EPD to a device and signal it, as a capability. TGah put some effort into squeezing information into the header, so I wonder if they ever considered using EPD?

40.5. A: No, not as yet.40.6. Chair: Please can TGah then consider this topic in the future?40.7. C: The TGak has some EPD support. However, it’s difficult to make it optional as it has to be

either there or not between STAs.40.8. C: I’m concerned that the 5.9 GHz band may be used for life critical operations.40.9. A: At the moment, there are no authorized deployments of ITS devices in these bands, as they

are licensed bands. Therefore there are no concerns about backward compatibility, as there are no legacy devices.

40.10. C: I would like to see an official statement from someone that no such deployments exist.40.11. Chair: Please can we have an IEEE 802.11 liaison from the government bodies which allow

operation in this band, to provide some clarity on this issue.40.12. C: It is the FCC that controls licenses in this band. Therefore there is no installed base of

deployments. Therefore it is quite easy to obtain a statement from the FCC.40.13. Chair: Ok, so an exchange of information or a reference to minutes would be ok.40.14. Q: Does this impact any potential VHT operation in this band?40.15. A: No, this is for ITS devices only.40.16. C: We’ve only spoken about the FCC. Does it affect any other regime?40.17. A: Yes. I know for a fact that there no devices deployed in Europe. In addition, this is not just

for vehicle to vehicle communications. It will also be used for the safety of pedestrians, bikes and other users. It’s not just cars.

40.18. Straw Poll: Do you support a change from LPD to EPD for ITS communications in the IEEE 802.11 5.9GHz (“11p”) frequency bands?40.18.1. YES: 2040.18.2. NO: 040.18.3. NEED MORE INFORMATION/TIME: 3740.18.4. ABSTAIN: 1

40.19. C: So, please contact the author of the presentation for more information.40.20. Chair: Will you bring a motion to the next meeting?40.21. C: I’m not sure yet. However, a decision does need to be made next year.40.22. C: I think you can only put this in TGmc in January 2015, as it needs to be included before

the sponsor ballot process.

41. Working Group Motions (New Business) (11-14-1329r3)

41.1. TGai ANA request motion (slide #11)41.1.1. Request assignment of element IDs from the legacy space for the following elements:

CAG Number element FILS Indication element AP-CSN element Differentiated Initial Link Setup element FILS Public Key Indicator element Fragment element

41.1.2. Moved: Hiroshi Mano, Seconded: Marc Emmelman41.1.3. [TGai motion result: y/n/a: 8/0/2]41.1.4. Q: How many numbers are left?41.1.5. Chair: There will still be some Element IDs left, if this motion passes41.1.6. C: The “Fragment element” is not a Beacon frame, but it could be re-used by other TGs

and therefore we think it is very useful.41.1.7. C: Can we remove the fragment element from the motion?41.1.8. Motion to amend

41.1.8.1. Remove the Fragment element from the motion41.1.8.2. Moved: Peter Ecclesine, Second; Stephen McCann41.1.8.3. Q: I speak against the motion to amend, as this discussion also occurred in TGai.

It would mean that extra bytes being transmitted for every fragment.41.1.8.4. For: 0, Against: 25, Abstain: 11 (Motion fails)

41.1.9. Back to the main motion (without changes)41.1.10. For: 36, Against: 0, Abstain: 8 (Motion passes)
