Overview
• This document reports on the regulatory matters considered and
outputs from the July, 2013 meeting.
• Specific documents/actions were approved by the RR-TAG in
response to the regulatory proceedings reviewed and inputs from
various WGs.
• The RR-TAG is input driven. The attendance varies depending on the
topics & documents being considered. At this particular meeting we
approved four documents, one of which is in support of an FCC filing
by IEEE USA.
• As was begun several meetings earlier final approval of documents is
normally held on Thursdays during AM1 and AM2. Some find that we
still need the afternoon sessions to complete our work in a more
thorough manner. To do so requires prior permission of the EC chair.
• As is normal the meeting approved the 802.18 chair convening
conference calls to deal with regulatory matters that come up between
Plenary sessions.

Items to be considered in November
• The RR-TAG will have to review the status of Document 1813/0090r01 supporting IEEE USA’s position regarding the use of
spectrum above 95 GHz.
– As of the close of the July meeting there was no “RM” (Rule
Making) number assigned to the IEEE USA contribution.
– It may be that IEEE 802, through the newly enacted “sole voice”
concept, may have to make a contribution not linked to the IEEE
USA contribution.
– Therefore it was felt, and the EC chair agreed, that he needed to be
present at any meeting considering the status of Document 1813/0090r1..
• 802.18 is contribution driven and it is fair to expect that other matters
will present themselves by the time of the November meeting in
Dallas.
