Proposal for TOC of IEEE 802.16p AWD

Introduction
This document proposes content for the TOC of the IEEE 802.16p AWD.
In session #70, it was decided that there would be no SDD for 16p, however the technical solutions usually
contained in the SDD are very useful in defining 16p-capable systems, so we would suggest adding an Annex P
to describe technical solutions for M2M, which would make the standards clearer and easier for understanding.
The proposed Annex would contain descriptions of the M2M system architecture as well as descriptions of the
four major areas of the 16p amendment: solutions for low power consumption, solutions for supporting a large
number of devices, solutions for small burst transmissions, and solutions for M2M security.
