Proposal for TOC of IEEE 802.16p AWD

Introduction
This document proposes the TOC of the IEEE 802.16p AWD.
According to the lastest16p SRD “80216p-10_0004r1”, there are four basic M2M features listed as below:
- Low Power Consumption
- Large Numbers of Devices
- Small Burst Transmissions
- Security Support

IEEE C802.16p-10/0038
Referring to the items of each feature, we can easily conclude that multiple aspects of the MAC or PHY layer
functions could be impacted by each feature in order to meet the new requirements. Some M2M feature
requirements may need new M2M specific mechanism to support.
Since it is supposed to support M2M in both 16e and 16m, we would suggest including all the chapters (from
chapter 1 to 16) in the 16p AWD, and the amendment to 802.16e can be added to the chapter 1 to chapter 14
with change tracking, while the amendment to 802.16m can be added to the chapter 16 with change tracking.
For the M2M feature specific new mechanism, we propose to add the related content to the end of baseline
specification as a new chapter 17.
In session #70, the standard group determined that there is no SDD for 16p, so we would suggest adding an
Annex P to describe technical solutions for M2M, which would make the standards clearer and easier for
understanding.
Text Proposal
The proposed ToC is as below and the subsections of chapter 17 are listed for examples. This can be taken as a
start point of the 16p specification.
