3. Submission doc.: IEEE 802.19-15/0019r0 December Coexistence Lessons Learned Liaison In November the IEEE 802 Executive Committee approved the Coexistence Lessons Learned Liaison presentation to 3GPP o Doc IEEE 802.19-14/80r2 The liaison was presented at the 3GPP TSG RAN meeting December 9, 2014 o The presentation was well received. Several people thanked the IEEE for a very good presentation. o There was interest in understanding how much one 802.11 network affects another 802.11. They wanted to know if such a “baseline” existed in the IEEE. o They asked if the IEEE planned to do its own coexistence studies. We told them at this point the plan is to review and comment on the 3GPP coexistence studies. o They asked if the IEEE had ever considered developing a management and control channel in licensed spectrum, like in LAA. We explained that IEEE typically standardizes operation in unlicensed spectrum, even for control and management channels o 3GPP TSG RAN Chair mentioned that he would be presenting at the January IEEE 802 session and also could return to the IEEE after the completion of the Study Item Slide 3Steve Shellhammer, Qualcomm March 2015

4. Submission doc.: IEEE 802.19-15/0019r0 January Liaison from 3GPP The 3GPP TSG RAN Chair (Dino Flore) gave a liaison presentation to IEEE 802 at the January IEEE 802.19 session, which was advertised to all attendees of the January all-802 Interim and well attended by members of many working groups o https://mentor.ieee.org/802.19/dcn/15/19-15-0008-00-0000- 3gpp-and-unlicensed-spectrum.pdf (doc IEEE 802.19-15/8r0 ) https://mentor.ieee.org/802.19/dcn/15/19-15-0008-00-0000- 3gpp-and-unlicensed-spectrum.pdf o There was a questions and answer period providing good interaction between TSG RAN Chair and 802 members o TSG RAN Chair volunteered to attend a future IEEE 802 meeting after the completion of the Study Item in June (most likely at the July IEEE 802 Plenary) Slide 4Steve Shellhammer, Qualcomm March 2015

5. Submission doc.: IEEE 802.19-15/0019r0 January Liaison to 3GPP TSG RAN At the January Interim the WG reviewed a process document for approving liaisons to 3GPP TSG RAN regarding coexistence issues o This process document https://mentor.ieee.org/802.19/dcn/14/19-14-0089-01-0000- liaison-approval-process.pptx (doc IEEE 802.19-14/89r1) was subsequently approved by the Executive Committee https://mentor.ieee.org/802.19/dcn/14/19-14-0089-01-0000- liaison-approval-process.pptx At the January IEEE all-802 Interim session a liaison was drafted by members of a number of working groups and subsequently approved by the Executive Committee o http://www.ieee802.org/Communications/15_01/15_0202_Liai son_802LMSC_3GPP_TSG.pdf http://www.ieee802.org/Communications/15_01/15_0202_Liai son_802LMSC_3GPP_TSG.pdf Slide 5Steve Shellhammer, Qualcomm March 2015
