doc.: IEEE 802.11-17/0537r0 May 2017 M 2.4 Other project of interest P1932.1 Title: Standard for Licensed/Unlicensed Spectrum Interoperability in Wireless Mobile Networks Scope: This standard defines a mechanism for communications among entities operating in licensed and unlicensed spectrum. The mechanism includes interoperation among MAC/PHY protocols designed for unlicensed and licensed spectrum operations and a controller for coordination among communicating entities. Need for Project: This standard is needed to enable interoperability among devices designed for licensed and unlicensed frequency spectrum, including WiFi and LTE devices, which currently there is no such mechanisms Report Slide 6 Adrian Stephens, Intel Corporation
doc.: IEEE 802.11-17/0537r0 May 2017 M 2.4 Other project of interest P1932.1 (cont) Additional Explanatory Notes: The introduction of CCA slot structure and alignment in LAA channel access in the 3GPP TSG RAN WG1 Meeting #82 document R1-154065 introduce an ECCA slot to align the CCA slots to a baseline CCA slot structure and to avoid being unsynchronized with OFDM symbol boundaries. However, this solution is provided for in-channel transmissions over unlicensed and does not cover the multi-channel alignment problem. 802.11 Chair has invited P1932.1 Chair to brief the WG on what they are doing Report Slide 7 Adrian Stephens, Intel Corporation
