doc.: IEEE 802.11-15/1279r1 Nov 2015 Does 802.11 want to join the 5G bandwagon currently being defined as IMT-2020? Discuss! 5G( IMT-2020) is progressing IMT-2020 will extend IMT-Advanced IMT-2020 covers many use cases Should 802.11 be part of IMT-2020? Industry is in the early stages of defining 5G IMT-2020 will cover macro cells, small cell and device to device communications Different IMT-2020 capabilities will be applied to a diversity of use cases The question for today is does IEEE 802 want to submit IEEE 802.11 as part of IMT-2020? but the definition of 5G (IMT-2020) is progressing quickly under stewardship of ITU-R WP5D with key parameters for IMT-2020 likely to significantly extend IMT- Advanced (4G) and there are a developing set of expectations for IMT-2020 capabilities for each use case There is no explicit proposal today, just the start of a conversation Submission Slide 2 Andrew Myles, Cisco
doc.: IEEE 802.11-15/1279r1 Nov 2015 Industry is in the early stages of defining 5G (aka IMT-2020) A new communications generation has been defined each decade since the mid 1980s Each generation has applied new technology to new use cases The new capabilities have driven market demand 5G - 2020s IMT-2020 Technology? Use cases? 4G - 2010s IMT-Advanced LTE/LTE-A, 802.16m Broadband data & Video 3G - 2000s IMT-2000 WCDMA, CDMA2000 Voice & Data 2G - 1990s Digital GSM, IS-95, IS-136 Voice Capacity 5G not yet been defined by any recognized standards body It is likely to be more than just than greater data capacity and coverage 1G - 1980s Analog AMPS Voice Submission Slide 3 Andrew Myles, Cisco
doc.: IEEE 802.11-15/1279r1 Nov 2015 but the definition of 5G is progressing quickly under stewardship of ITU-R WP5D Submission Slide 4 Andrew Myles, Cisco

doc.: IEEE 802.11-15/1279r1 Nov 2015 and there is a developing set of expectations for IMT-2020 capabilities for each use case Data rates 1-10Gb/s Capacity 36TB/month/user Spectrum Higher frequencies with flexibility Ultra-dense networks Energy ~10% of today s consumption Latency ~1ms D2D capabilities NSPS, ITS, resilience, Ultra-reliable networks Reliabiity 99.999% within time budget Coverage Coverage Coverage >20dB of LTE Massive machines Battery ~10 years Density 300k devices per access node Source : ITU-R 2020 Vision Workshop Feb-12 2014 @ Vietnam, by METIS project Source : ITU-R 2020 Vision Workshop Feb-12 2014 @ Vietnam, by METIS project Submission Slide 8 Andrew Myles, Cisco
doc.: IEEE 802.11-15/1279r1 Nov 2015 The question for today is does IEEE 802 want to submit IEEE 802.11 as part of IMT-2020? Possible benefits of recognition as an IMT-2020 technology IEEE 802.11 would be internationally recognized of as part of IMT-2020 Note: many developing countries rely on ITU Recommendations Counter: maybe ISO standardization is sufficient? No, ISO standardization does not make you 5G! IEEE 802.11 would be included in the 5G marketing hype Counter: maybe Wi-Fi does not need any more hype? Hype always is helpful and 5G is a label that people understand! Submission Slide 9 Andrew Myles, Cisco
doc.: IEEE 802.11-15/1279r1 Nov 2015 The question for today is does IEEE 802 want to submit IEEE 802.11 as part of IMT-2020? Possible benefits of recognition as an IMT-2020 technology IEEE 802.11 might be able to access IMT-2020 identified frequency bands, including exclusive as well as shared spectrum access NOTE: May see increased use of shared-licensing as industry moves to higher frequency bands, and certain countries may require IMT-2020 compliance to deploy in these bands Counter: is this something that is needed or valuable? Yes, more spectrum opportunities for Wi-Fi is only a good thing IEEE 802.11 could be better positioned for IoT space Counter: IoT positioning requires features and not more PR! Wi-Fi need to work on IOT features anyway Submission Slide 10 Andrew Myles, Cisco
doc.: IEEE 802.11-15/1279r1 Nov 2015 The question for today is does IEEE 802 want to submit IEEE 802.11 as part of IMT-2020? Possible negatives of recognition as an IMT-2020 technology It will take lots of work Note: recognition as part of IMT-Advanced did not help IEEE 802.16, but 802.16 was a new technology, whereas IEEE 802.11 has a massive and established ecosystem Counter: the benefits make the effort worthwhile Submission Slide 11 Andrew Myles, Cisco
doc.: IEEE 802.11-15/1279r1 Nov 2015 ITU-R WP 5D already considers IEEE to be an important stakeholder, but maybe not Wi-Fi/802.11 IEEE but no Wi-Fi Alliance But other parties are invited Submission Slide 12 Andrew Myles, Cisco
doc.: IEEE 802.11-15/1279r1 Nov 2015 Maybe we can leverage 3GPP LWA to ensure IEEE 802.11 meets IMT-2020 requirements LTE-WLAN Aggregation (LWA) in 3GPP Rel-13 supports aggregation between 3GPP LTE & IEEE 802.11 at or just above the PDCP layer If certain macro-type IMT-2020 requirements cannot be met by IEEE 802.11 then we could include LWA as an option in any proposal for inclusion of IEEE 802.11 as part of IMT-2020 This would allow the proposal to meet the macro type IMT-2020 requirements through the licensed band LTE component carrier Submission Slide 13 Andrew Myles, Cisco
doc.: IEEE 802.11-15/1279r1 Nov 2015 There is no explicit proposal today, just the start of a conversation Does anyone have more information? Is there any interest? What are the next steps? Submission Slide 14 Andrew Myles, Cisco
