Comment on M2M Communication PAR Form and Five Criteria
1. Introduction
A drafting PAR for 802.16 Machine to Machine Communication [1] defines a scope of the project to includes
backward compatibility, lower power consumption support, large number of devices support and small burst
transmission support. In addition to these features, we propose to consider a security mechanism for low cost
M2M devices in this PAR.
And, to clearly say the scope of this PAR focuses on the communication between stations subscribing M2M
service through a base station, it is proposed to add a phrase “through a base station” in subclause 8.1
additional explanatory notes.

-------------------------------
Text Start
---------------------------------------------------
5.2 Scope:
This amendment specifies IEEE Std 802.16 medium access control (MAC) enhancements and
minimal OFDMA PHY modifications to provide functionalities for efficient Mmachine to
Mmachine communication. The enhancements are lower power consumption at the subscriber
station, support by the base station of significantly larger numbers of devices, and efficient support
for small burst transmissions, and security mechanisms adapted for low cost M2M devices. This
amendment provides continuing support for WirelessMAN-Advanced Air Interface and legacy
WirelessMAN-OFDMA equipment.
8.1 Additional Explanatory Notes (Item Number and Explanation):
(Item 1.1 Project Number)
We skip the project number P802.16o because ‘o’ is confusing with the digit ‘0’.
(Item 5.2)
Definition of Mmachine to Mmachine Ccommunication:

IEEE C802.16ppc-10/0045
This is information exchange between Ssubscriber stations through a base station, or between a
Ssubscriber station and a Sserver in the core network through a Bbase Sstation that may be carried
out without any human interaction.
