802.24 discussion on LAA
•
802.19 hosted 3GPP Liaison in May

•
LAA License Assisted Access
802.11 is concerned about proposed coexistence mechanisms and the definitions of what Listen Before Talk
really means.
Definition of “Fairness”
802 discussing having a joint workshop for faster interaction. Dino Flore (chair RAN1) supports, but no action
so far.
Workshop could happen in July.
Q&A
–
Are cellular operators bound to follow 3GPP specifications?
•
–
–
•
802.11 is a part of specs as an alternative, access, but there is no obligation to follow 3GPP specifications, beyond
regulatory aspects
If the 5GHz band becomes less usable due to LAA, does that causes the lower bands to become more
congested and affect grid and IoT uses?
Any spectrum where 802.11 is allowed, LAA would also be allowed (subject to regulatory requirements which
could be locally unique).
What is the role of 802.24?
–
–
Is there any use case in the 5 GHz band? Currently only 802.11 has a PHY in 5 GHz band. There are smart
grid use cases for broadband mesh network backhaul in 5 GHz band.
Industrial Automation does not use LBT, but different mechanisms.
•
At this time, there are not multiple 802 standards affected by LAA, so there is no clear role for
802.24. We will continue to monitor the developments and liaisons of LAA.
•
With respect to 5G architecture, we can engage in the discussion early on and provide influence.
Engage with 3GPP at workshop in September. Try to pre-empt the LAA situation with 5G.
Coordinate with 802.1 OmniRAN and 802.21, plus 802.11. 802.24 can also add value in this.

802.24 will have further information on Workshop at July plenary.
