10. doc.: IEEE 802.11-15/0004r0 Submission Jan 2016 The ITU-R are in the middle of a multi-year plan to develop requirements & approve specifications Andrew Myles, CiscoSlide 10 January 2016 Note: details may change

11. doc.: IEEE 802.11-15/0004r0 Submission Jan 2016 Now is the time for IEEE 802 to start the process of submitting IEEE 802.11 as a IMT-2020 technology Andrew Myles, CiscoSlide 11 ITU-R is defining IMT-2020 over 8 years … …based on the IMT- Advanced processes … … and now is the time for IEEE 802 to start work The ITU-R are in the middle of a multi-year plan to develop requirements & approve specifications ITU-R plan focuses on “setting the stage” in 2012-17 and then on “defining the technology” in 2018-20 The end point in October 2020 is a Draft New Recommendation for the initial release of IMT-2020 The IMT-Advanced process will provide a template for the IMT- 2020 approval process However, IMT-2020 will be a little different from IMT-Advanced because of the wider diversity of use cases In the short term, IEEE 802 need to focus on IMT- 2020 activities planned until end of 2017 IEEE 802 needs to kick off the process with a liaison to ITU-R and by creating a forum for future work

12. Submission doc.: IEEE 802.11-16/0127r1 IMT-2020 Bottom Line ITU-R via IMT-2020 is defining the 5G network The 5G network will provide wireless technology solutions for many traditional 802.11 use cases IMT-2020 will also provide input to WRC 19 and hence will help drive spectrum allocation decisions, especially in the 5150-5925 MHz and >6 GHz ranges If 802.11 wants to be an IMT-2020 technology it must advocate for itself in ITU-R If 802.11 does not advocate for itself no one else will.
