IEEE 802.18 IMT Advanced
• Items proposed at today’s meeting:
– That at the July plenary a decision be made to
determine if IEEE 802 wishes to file further IMT
Advanced requirements
– If the July meeting decides to proceed with further
requirements the work method will be the same as used
previously
• Any new input would be for the first meeting of WP8F in 2008

IEEE 802.18 IMT Advanced
• Items proposed at today’s meeting:
– That at the July plenary a decision be made to
determine if IEEE 802 would consider making a
technology proposal for IMT Advanced
• This possibility was discussed in Londonium – the “world
according to 802”
• It is expected that it would need to be completed by Q4 2008
• Work method would be the same as used for IMT Advanced
requirements
