These changes and spectrum regulation changes have resulted in new requirements driving new solutions which use both IEEE Std 802.11 Sub-1 GHz (S1G) and IEEE Std 802.15.4 S1G standards. There are many millions of deployed legacy 802.15.4 S1G devices (commonly referred to as IEEE Std 802.15.4g in the industry). Devices based on IEEE Std 802.11 S1G (commonly referred to as IEEE Std 802.11ah in the industry) are expected to begin widespread deployment. The need for new devices using different technologies to coexist is critical to support and sustain growth in the markets. Recommended Resolution: Accept Submission B. Rolfe (BCA), T.

doc.: IEEE 802.19-23/0025r2 PAR and CSD Review by 802.15 SCM 802.19 PARs and CSDs 5.3: Please use consistent language for highlighted parts below: Changes in the markets and rules changes have resulted in new requirements that are driving new solutions which will use both IEEE Std 802.11 Sub-1 Giga Hertz (S1G) and IEEE Std 802.15.4 S1G standards. New requirements include need to support increased data traffic per device, many more devices per unit area and a corresponding increase in congestion potential. There are many millions of deployed legacy 802.15.4 S1G devices (commonly referred to as 802.15.4g in the industry). Devices based on IEEE Std 802.11 S1G (commonly referred to as 802.11ah in the industry) are expected to begin widespread deployment. The need for new devices using different technologies to coexist with each other and the deployed base of legacy devices is critical to support and sustain growth in the markets. Changes in IEEE Std 802.15.4 and IEEE Std 802.11 include new features that can be used to enhance coexistence. This project will add new recommendations and update existing recommendations incorporating new and expanded features of both standards. Also experience within the industry can be used to update recompensates. The limited amount of spectrum available in S1G bands drives an increasing need to share the spectrum efficiency. This project will enhance the ability of users of this standard to address ongoing and growing coexistence challenges. This recommended practice enables IEEE Std 802.15.4 and IEEE Std 802.11ah-2016 to most effectively operate in license exempt Sub-1 GHz frequency bands, by providing best practices and coexistence methods. This recommended practice uses existing features of the referenced standards and provides guidance to implementers and users of IEEE 802(R) wireless standards. (see next slide) Submission B.

doc.: IEEE 802.19-23/0025r2 November 2023 Comments from 802.1: CSD 1.2.2.b Compatibility IEEE 802.15 has previously determined that IEEE Std 802.15.4ab shall comply with IEEE Std 802 but cannot comply with IEEE Std 802.1Q and IEEE Std 802.1AC because IEEE Std 802.15 uses 64-bit MAC addresses. That is one aspect; however, IEEE 802.1 believes the following aspects also apply: IEEE Std 802.15.4 has a restricted MTU size which makes bridging to other IEEE 802 media impossible without suitable fragmentation/reassembly support. The use of other Addressing Modes beyond the extended address (64-bit) is also incompatible with IEEE Std 802.1Q and IEEE Std 802.1AC. Please consider including these aspects as well as any others that may be appropriate in your response on IEEE Std 802.15.4 aspects that do not comply with IEEE Std 802.1Q and IEEE Std 802.1AC. Please consider including these aspects as well as any others that may be appropriate in your response on IEEE Std 802.15.4 aspects that do not comply with IEEE Std 802.1Q and IEEE Std 802.1AC. Recommended Resolution: The group considered the comment and determined that the existing text in the CSD is sufficient for the scope of the recommended practice. Submission B. Rolfe (BCA), T.
