doc.: IEEE r3 Submission Sept 2015 Steve Pope Topics: Future Network Technologies for Social Good –IEEE 802 technologies cover both wired and wireless network capabilities at the personal-area, local-area, and metropolitan-area scales. –Over the past decade, these technologies have become increasingly important, potentially life-saving, during trying social conditions including, but not limited to, war, repressive regimes, refugee crises, public protests, and environmental crises and public disasters. –At the same time, perpetrator individuals and rogue governments might employ aspects of the technologies against the public, by blocking or controlling networks, by eavesdropping, or through identity and data theft. How should these technologies evolve in a way that best serves the greater public good? Possible technical areas: –Mesh networking –Zero-based services for information delivery –Improvements against eavesdropping, exfiltration, and other information theft. –How the technology might specifically be improved to better serve social needs, and be hardened against socially problematical usages –How such evolution can be driven by the IEEE 802 standards process. Tim Godfrey, EPRISlide 21

doc.: IEEE r3 Submission Sept 2015 Ruben Salazar The topic would be Spectrum Sharing and Regulation: how the regulator can and should ensure the best and non-discriminatory use of a shared spectrum. The paper should include comparative information about such regulations in the different major areas of the world, Asia Pacific, Europe and Americas. The paper should also identify those areas where the regulation imposes static constraints (Listen Before Talk or Duty cycles) on channel access that could compromise the effective use of the spectral resource. Based on such information the candidate should elaborate about the use of Channel Sensing to serve regulation: is the complexity added to the implementations necessary or could similar sharing performance be achieved without such constraints. Same analysis about the use of Duty Cycle schemes. Finally, the candidate should analyze if and how Transmit Power Management could be used efficiently for Spectrum sharing, with potentially lower complexity impact. Indeed lower power communications would propagate less and would be confined, which allows for better geographical Spectrum re-use. What would be a good combination of all these techniques to ensure best Spectrum Sharing. The paper should conclude on which technique would be more adapted to the new applications coming from the IoT initiatives. Tim Godfrey, EPRISlide 22

The paper should also identify those areas where the regulation imposes static constraints (Listen Before Talk or Duty cycles) on channel access that could compromise the effective use of the spectral resource.
