2. Agenda Met on Mon Aug 31 and Wed Sep 02 with the following agenda – Establish DG goals, strategy, and process – Review classification of 39 contributions received on MBS Basic Operation Advanced features – Develop ToC – Contribution presentation – Establish timeline for work between meetings

3. E-MBS DG Goal To draft E-MBS amendment text that can be adopted in D2 during Session #63.5 (Hawaii) – Must have very high level of support (75% required for adoption) – Must be fully specified and self-consistent; cannot contain major placeholders or vague text for which protocols/procedures will need to be specified later.

6. E-MBS DG Strategy Use the DG to specify a simple baseline E-MBS system – Stick to a modest scope and to basic operational E-MBS concepts – Generate DG document which can meet the 75% acceptance requirement Extensions and more advanced E-MBS features may be considered at Hawaii if it finds > 75% support or as LB comments against the D2 or later drafts.

7. E-MBS Prioritized Topics Basic Operation of E-MBS E-MBS Control and MAP E-MBS MIMO E-MBS Zone specific pilots – Mr. Bo Sun (ZTE) will lead harmonization efforts The agreed Table of Contents defining the scope of the DG is in C802.16m-09/2127r1

8.
