IMT.EVAL Summary Update
May 2008 IMT.EVAL Summary Update REPORT OF CORRESPONDENCE GROUP FOR IMT.EVAL1 Introduction A correspondence group for IMT.EVAL and Annex 7 of the Circular Letter (CL) was agreed at the 1st meeting of WP 5D. The agreed terms of reference were: "to work on: characteristics chosen for evaluation; evaluation methodology; refinement of the selected test scenarios; simulation parameters; and other issues of the PDNR M.[IMT.EVAL]; and refinement of the Annex 7 of the Circular Letter, and to take into consideration of the discussion results of ‘DG-EVAL Channel Model’ Correspondence Group". The group was formally closed on 1st May 2008 according to the plan. During the discussion, the group received: - proposals for amendment of IMT.EVAL from China, Ericsson and the Correspondence Group for DG-EVAL Channel Model (CG Channel Model); - proposal for amendment of Annex 7 of the CL from Japan; - comments in s from Canada, Ericsson and Japan. These contributions are beneficial to the work on IMT.EVAL and Annex 7 of the CL, both of which will be finalized at the coming WP 5D meeting. However, there’s almost no discussion on the contributions before correspondence group closing date, mainly because most of the contributions came very late. The following sections provide a summary of main issues which were addressed by the contributions. The purpose is to facilitate further discussion.

May 2008 IEEE Submission (112) Bruce Kraemer (Marvell); Darwin Engwer(Nortel)

May 2008 March – May Activities Correspondence groups were operating during April ‘08 to try and reach agreement on numbers prior to the Dubai meeting. IEEE 802 continued to participate. IEEE needs to consider more formal defense of proposals for the June WP5D meeting Bruce Kraemer (Marvell); Darwin Engwer(Nortel)

IMT AHC Goals – May thru July
Bi weekly conference calls between March Plenary & May Interim Target is 2 slots for IMT discussions in July Goal is to complete technical submissions in defense of IEEE Requirement & Evaluation criteria for use in June ITU-R meetings We need to determine who has an interest in proceeding with a joint IEEE 802 input to WP5D on IMT-Advanced technologies. Submission window for Dubai closes June The window for Technology submissions WP5D opens at their January/February meeting 2009 rather than the last meeting in Of course the window is three meetings so we can improve (and socialize) a IEEE 802 input. Report on Dubai results during Denver Plenary Begin planning regarding how to respond to Circular letter Bruce Kraemer (Marvell); Darwin Engwer(Nortel)

Updates since January May 2008

Work continues in WP5D May 2008
The circular letter was not completed in January 2008 But there was a partial release Work will continue in correspondance groups (not yet begun) AND during the next meeting June 24 – July 1 in Dubai A schedule of ITU meetings can be found at Bruce Kraemer (Marvell); Darwin Engwer(Nortel)

May 2008 Next Steps 1. IMT-TECH and IMT-EVAL will be finalized in the June 2008 meeting of WP 5D. 2. The Circular Letter containing the completed main body, completed Annex 1, completed Annex 2, and completed Annex 8 will be finalized at this WP 5D first meeting and provided to the BR to be sent out in February 2008. Annexes 3, 4, 5, 6 and 7 will not be included in this release of the Circular Letter and the Circular Letter should note that these remaining Annexes will be provided in an Addendum to the Circular Letter for release in the June 2008 timeframe after WP 5D meeting No. 2. The purpose of this initial Circular Letter is to announce the start of the process for defining IMT‑Advanced technologies and will additionally give insight into preliminary (work in-progress) on the technical aspects in IMT.TECH, IMT.EVAL and Annexes 3, 4, 5, 6, and7 of the Circular Letter. To provide preliminary views on the remaining open work, there will be included in the Circular Letter a pointer to the “work-in-progress” on IMT-TECH, IMT-EVAL and advance/preliminary views on Annexes 3, 4, 5, 6 and 7. It is requested that this be accommodated through use of an appropriate IMT-Advanced webpage on the ITU-R web site. Bruce Kraemer (Marvell); Darwin Engwer(Nortel)

May 2008 Circular Letter 5/LCCE/2 7 March 2008
Subject: Invitation for submission of proposals for candidate radio interface technologies for the terrestrial components of the radio interface(s) for IMT-Advanced and invitation to participate in their subsequent evaluation 1 Introduction ITU-R has commenced the process of developing ITU-R Recommendations for the terrestrial components of the IMT-Advanced radio interface(s). This work is guided by Resolution ITU-R 57 (see Attachment 1). Resolution ITU-R 57 on the “Principles for the process of development of IMT‑Advanced” outlines the essential criteria and principles which will be used in the process of developing the Recommendations and Reports for IMT-Advanced, including Recommendation(s) for the radio interface specification. 2 Purpose of this Circular Letter The purpose of this Circular Letter is to invite the submission of proposals for candidate radio interface technologies (RITs) or a set of RITs (SRITs) for the terrestrial components of IMT‑Advanced. This Circular Letter also initiates an ongoing process to evaluate the candidate RITs or SRITs for IMT‑Advanced, and invites the formation of independent evaluation groups and the subsequent submission of evaluation reports on these candidate RITs or SRITs. Within the ITU-R, the work on IMT-Advanced will be conducted in ITU Radiocommunication Study Group 5 (SG 5). While the final structure of SG 5 has yet to be finalized, as an interim measure, Working Party 5D (WP 5D) of SG 5 has been identified as the group responsible for this work.
