Month Year doc.: IEEE 802.11-yy/xxxxr0 July 2016 Abstract This submission attempts to start the discussion on how to verify the TG PAR scope. Osama Aboul-Magd (Huawei Technologies) John Doe, Some Company

Month Year doc.: IEEE 802.11-yy/xxxxr0 July 2016 From the PAR Scope This amendment defines standardized modifications to both the IEEE 802.11 physical layers (PHY) and the IEEE 802.11 Medium Access Control layer (MAC) that enable at least one mode of operation capable of supporting at least four times improvement in the average throughput per station (measured at the MAC data service access point) in a dense deployment scenario, while maintaining or improving the power efficiency per station. Unlike previous amendments (HT and VHT), this amendment is concerned with AVERAGE PER STATION THROUGHPUT not aggregate link throughput. Osama Aboul-Magd (Huawei Technologies) John Doe, Some Company

More from the PAR (section 8.1 Additional Explanatory Notes) Month Year doc.: IEEE 802.11-yy/xxxxr0 July 2016 More from the PAR (section 8.1 Additional Explanatory Notes) The increase in average throughput per station is not limited to four times improvement. Improvement values in the range of 5-10 times are targeted, depending on technology and scenario. The amendment will be evaluated with a set of typical deployment scenarios representative of the main expected usage models that are likely to suffer bottlenecks in the coming years: residential, enterprise, indoor and outdoor hotspots. HEW SG has initiated the creation of a high-level simulation scenario working document (ref: 11-13/1001r5) to model these scenarios. The simulation scenarios may include system characteristics extracted from measured IEEE 802.11 operations in the field. Osama Aboul-Magd (Huawei Technologies) John Doe, Some Company

What is the TG Plan for Verifying the PAR Scope? Month Year doc.: IEEE 802.11-yy/xxxxr0 July 2016 What is the TG Plan for Verifying the PAR Scope? Currently neither the TG draft nor any submission shows that the PAR scope is achieved. What options do we have? Do Nothing – may cause issues with 802 EC and RevCom. Change the PAR – basically say that we don’t know how much improvement is achieved in the parameter of interest. Run system level simulations for a chosen set of simulation scenarios to verify the PAR scope– any volunteers. The good news are we still have some time. Need to be done as early as possible, preferably before D1.0. Osama Aboul-Magd (Huawei Technologies) John Doe, Some Company
