IEEE P802.22Wireless RANsMAC Conference Call MinutesDate:2009-08-12Author(s):Name Company Address Phone emailWendong Hu STMicroelectronics 1060 East Brokaw Road,San Jose, CA 951311-408-467-8410 wendong.hu@ AbstractThis document contains the minutes from the 802.22 MAC teleconference on Wednesday 12 August, 2009 at 8:00PM EST.Notice: This document has been prepared to assist IEEE 802.22. It is offered as a basis for discussion and is not binding on the contributing individual(s) or organization(s). The material in this document is subject to change in form and content after further study. The contributor(s) reserve(s) the right to add, amend or withdraw material contained herein.Release: The contributor grants a free, irrevocable license to the IEEE to incorporate material contained in this contribution, and any modifications thereof, in the creation of an IEEE Standards publication; to copyright in the IEEE’s name any IEEE Standards publication even though it may include portions of this contribution; and at the IEEE’s s ole discretion to permit others to reproduce in whole or in part the resulting IEEE Standards publication. The contributor also acknowledges and accepts that this contribution may be made public by IEEE 802.22.Patent Policy and Procedures: The contributor is familiar with the IEEE 802 Patent Policy and Procedures</guides/bylaws/sb-bylaws.pdf>, including the statement "IEEE standards may include the known use of patent(s), including patent applications, provided the IEEE receives assurance from the patent holder or applicant with respect to patents essential for compliance with both mandatory and optional portions of the standard." Early disclosure to the Working Group of patent information that might be relevant to the standard is essential to reduce the possibility for delays in the development process and increase the likelihood that the draft publication will be approved for publication. Please notify the Chair <Wendong Hu> as early as possible, in written or electronic form, if patented technology (or technology under patent application) might be incorporated into a draft standard being developed within the IEEE 802.22 Working Group. If you have questions, contact the IEEE Patent Committee Administrator at <patcom@>.1. AttendanceRanga Reddy (US Army)Winston Caldwell (Fox)Wendong Hu (STMicroelectronics)2. Agenda1. Record Attendance2. Announce IEEE patent policy:/board/pat/pat-slideset.pdf3. Approve the agenda.4. Approve the minutes of the last call:https:///802.22/dcn/09/22-09-0136-00-0000-mac-conference-call-minutes-08-05-2009.doc5. Review/propose comment resolutions for the following comments (Ref.: 22-09-0120-03-0000-wran-draft-2-0-ballot-comment-database):* New approach on connection management: CID 184, 185 (Ref.: 22-09-0112-01-0000-new-connection-identifier-approach.ppt)* Super-frame/Frame Structure/Control Headers/MAC PDU Format: CID 211 - 3116. Other business3. Notes1)Wendong recorded the attendance at 5:05PM PST.2) A citation to the IEEE patent policy was provided with the announcement of the meeting. When asked,no one notified the chairman that they were unfamiliar with the IEEE patent policy.3)The agenda was approved as presented.4)The minutes of the last call was approved unanimously.5)Review/propose comment resolutions for the following commentsa.CID 184 and 185: New approach on connection management. Deferred. Notes: the way that CIDsgenerated/coded is implementation issue. The proposed approach for CID generation/coding mayprovide some degree of improvement in capacity efficiency which is still subject to verification.However, it will introduce a significant amount of editorial work to the draft and will beundesirable.b.CID 211: SCW and US sub-frame. Proposed “Counter” in the last teleconference, but need to bere-visited. LB of D1.0 agreed to separate the SCW and US-sub-frame.c.212 – Accepted.d.220 – Superceded by 211.e.223 – Coding and Modulation for Padding zeros in the last DS-burst. Change "is then" to "shallbe". A dd the following sentence: “The modulation and coding scheme for the padding zeros aredefined by the DIUD for the last DS burst in the DS-MAP.” Counter.f.224 – Accept.g.232 – Modulation/Coding. Defer to the PHY adhoc’s discussionh.233 – Modulation/Coding. Defer to the PHY adhoc’s discussioni.234 – Assigned to coexistence ad-hoc for further discussion. Geo-location function may besupported if the required capasity for information exchange of geo-location function is smallenough.6)There is no other business._________________________。
