Proposed Consent Agenda Motions for the April 7th, 2020 IEEE 802 EC
Telecon. A package will follow tomorrow with ballot history or other
details as appropriate.
1. Motion to approve submitting P802.15.4 D06 to RevCom
(unconditional)
SA Ballot is unanimous. D06 was a recirc of an unchanged draft.
7 non MBS comments were received from the RAC. These have been deemed non
substantive by the CRG, IEEE editorial staff, and the RAC. These
will be referred to the IEEE SA Editorial Staff with the recommendation
they be implemented during publication. This is acceptable to the RAC.
Approve sending P802.15.4 D06 to RevCom (WG 44, 4, 6)
Moverd: Heile
Second: Holcomb
2. Motion to approve submitting P802.15.4z Current Version to
RevCom (conditional):
Most recent recirculation, which closed April3 was at 94% approval.
(85, 5, 5) There were no new NO voters and 2 new MBS comments from an
existing NO votere,which were repeats os previously recirculated
comments. Of the 5 remaining NO voters, 3 are stale, ie have not
responded since commenting on the Primary Ballot. There is no reason this
can not be completed with one, or at most 2, more recirculations.
Conditionally approve sending P802.15.4z Current Version to RevCom.
Second: Holcomb
3. Motion to approve submitting 802.15.4z PAR title change to
NesCom:
The change is From: Enhanced High Rate Pulse (HRP) and Low Rate Pulse (LRP)
Ultra Wide-Band (UWB) Physical Layers (PHYs) and Associated Ranging
Techniques To: Enhanced Ultra Wideband (UWB) Physical Layers (PHYs) and
Associated Ranging Techniques
Reason for the change is the realization that as work progressed on
developing the amendment, the acronyms HRP and LRP were not widely
recognized and, in fact, were causing a degree of confusion which is not
something you want in a title. The decision was made to simplify things
and just use UWB PHYs which is well understood.. MEC requires the title
of the standard and the PAR be the same, hence this request.
4. Motion to approve submitting 802.15.12 PAR 2 year extesion to NesCom:
This seeks approval to forward the 802.15.12 PAR to NesCom for a 2 year extension. The PAR currently expires at the end of this year. The extension would change that to the end of 2022 Good progress has been made but more time is needed to pull things together. The covid issues have additionally not helped with moving things forward which is why 2 years are being requested rather than one.
