I think that Rich is correct. Responses to regulators and other similar government organizations are expected to be in a certain format. IMHO the liaison template doesn't meet the requirements for those responses.

The editorial license is for me to format it for submission, and getting it signed by Paul.
This is not actually a liaison; it is a response to an FCC request for comments. I don't believe it should be in a liaison template.
Thanks.

Rich,
Simple question for you - is this letter from the 802.18 group - or will it be coming from 802? If 802 - please use the liaison template - https://mentor.ieee.org/802-ec/dcn/17/ec-17-0012-01-00EC-802-liaison-templat
e.docx.
In addition - it is not clear from your motion who the motion is granting editorial license to.
Please clarify.
Thanks
John

Subject: [802SEC] 802.18 Draft response to Amtrak FCC Waiver Request
Dear EC Members:
Document link included.
Yesterday, in the 802.18 teleconference, we approved an input to the FCC regarding a request from Amtrak for a waiver of point-to-multipoint transmit power limits for their trackside networks (TSN) in the Northeast Corridor (NEC).
The waiver asks that in order to reduce the number of access points needed, that they be allowed to use the point-to-point transmit power limits to provide Wi-Fi on the trains. This limit, still 1 Watt conducted, allows the use of high gain antennas. For every 3 dB of antenna gain over 6 dB, the conducted power must only be reduced by 1 dB. This allows high power in narrow beams.
The Amtrak request was not accompanied by any study, simulations or test data to indicate the impact on Wi-Fi networks in the vicinity of the rail line. Our ask to the FCC is that they provide us with any Amtrak data on the impact, and that if they do not have data, that the FCC should require them to perform the necessary measurements, simulations and/or tests to show that this trackside network will not become a source of interference to neighboring Wi-Fi networks.
Please review the draft and provide any comments before final editing and formatting. I would need the EC to vote to approve on or before the 27th of February to meet the FCC deadline. It was approved by the members of 802.18 by a vote of 7/0/0. The meeting was announced more than 45 days ago.
The document is here:
