Not later than 180 days after the date of enactment of this Act, the Commission, in consultation with the NTIA, shall issue a notice of proposed rule making with respect to creating opportunities for the unlicensed use of spectrum in the frequencies between 5925 and 7125 megahertz without causing harmful interference with any incumbents in that band Agenda Slide 8 Rich Kennedy, HP Enterprise

9. November 2017 doc.: IEEE 802.18-17/0130r02 S.1682 This bill requires the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) to complete auctions during each of the next three calendar years that will grant new broadcast licenses for specified frequency spectrum bands. The FCC and the National Telecommunications and Information Administration are directed to identify frequencies in specified spectrum bands that may be utilized for: (1) non-federal unlicensed use; and (2) commercial licensed use. The FCC must allocate 10% of proceeds from each of the spectrum band auctions specified in the bill to expand wireless infrastructure in rural areas that are underserved or unserved. The FCC shall conduct a study on how unlicensed frequency spectrum bands can be utilized for: (1) the provision of healthcare in rural areas, (2) distance learning, and (3) facilitating innovations in agriculture.

15. November 2017 doc.: IEEE 802.18-17/0130r02 GPPC Position Statement on Contiguously Allocated Spectrum Documents were received on 03 November https://mentor.ieee.org/802.18/dcn/17/18-17-0131-00-0000-ieee-sa- contiguously-allocated-spectrum-position-1.docx (There was a second document though looks to be a dupe. It is 18-17/0132r00) We have been asked to review and comment on these by 13 November. This is to be a high level position paper that we do not want to restrict any regulatory public comments/communications from IEEE 802, it s Working Groups and TAGs. See Rev 18-17/0131r01 for updates discussed in the meeting. Agenda Slide 15 Rich Kennedy, HP Enterprise

16. November 2017 doc.: IEEE 802.18-17/0130r02 GPPC approval process Following 802.18 TAG and 802 EC 10 day approvals, the Global Public Policy Committee would add another 7-day approval process on correspondence. E.g. if we receive a document we decide to respond to, that has a typical 30-day Comment period, the TAG has a maximum of 13-days to outline, compose and approve the response Based on our meeting and teleconference schedule, we could lose 6-days due to the asynchronous regulator/IEEE schedules This would leave us a total of 7-days for our entire process, which is not sufficient. Actually some Reply Comment periods are only 15-days and at times the TAG does not receive requests on day one. It is being researched if we stay within the IEEE Position Statements, we would not need the additional approval. Agenda Slide 16 Rich Kennedy, HP Enterprise

17. November 2017 doc.: IEEE 802.18-17/0130r02 Thursday Agenda Reminder of IEEE policies we are under If available, finalize and approve Reply Comments to the Mid-Band NOI. Approve marked up IEEE SA Position Statement No other items from Tuesday. Approve Teleconferences moving forward. Agenda Agenda Slide 17 Jay Holcomb (Itron)

18. November 2017 doc.: IEEE 802.18-17/0130r02 Actions Required Status on FCC Mid-Band NOI reply comments Action Item from Tuesday: Small group met Wednesday afternoon. Compromise between 802.11 and 802.15 could not be reached. Each working group will be doing their own Reply Comments, going through the EC this Friday. Documents will be posted on the respective Mentor pages when available. It was noted that it was unfortunate that IEEE 802 is not having united reply comments. We need to always strive for a single reply for all IEEE 802 WGs and TAGs. Agenda Slide 18 Jay Holcomb (Itron)
