Basic Access Method - Protocol Behavior
• The 802.11 family uses a MAC layer known as CSMA/CA (Carrier Sense Multiple Access/Collision Avoidance)
• Ethernet uses CSMA/CD - collision detection).
Concept• Listen on the channel. • If the channel is quiet (no active transmitters) - send a
packet. • If channel is occupied- wait longer (exponential backoff) • 20 micro sec for DS systems. • If the channel is still idle at the end of the CONTENTION
period the node transmits its packet otherwise it repeats the waiting process

Tgu – Wireless Interworking
Background• As IEEE 802.11 hotspot deployment has become more
widespread throughout the world.• The growth of hotspots has resulted in more users
becoming frustrated with the non uniformity of interworking systems (e.g. poor service definition, disparate registration procedures, non-ubiquitous roaming).
• Generically these issues have been referred to as interworking, which refers to the functionality and interface between an IEEE 802.11 access network and any external network.
Page 50Version 1.0 IEEE 802 March 2011 workshop
EEE802
Tgu – Wireless Interworking
Objectives• The primary objective of IEEE 802.11u, is to create an
amendment to address interworking issues between an IEEE 802.11 access network and any external network to which it is connected.
• Interworking, is actually a collection of different functionalities:– Online Enrolment– Network Selection– Security– Authorization from Subscriber Network– Media Independent Handover Support
• Status: Last Draft balloted was D 13.0 – Published Feb 2011
Page 51Version 1.0 IEEE 802 March 2011 workshop
EEE802
802.11V Network Management
• Explosive growth of 802.11 wireless LANs emphasized the need to
• Maintain network quality and security • Manage the RF environment
– largely driven by interference from neighbouring wireless networks
• Secure the network to maintain privacy and prevent unauthorized use.
• Optimize the Network– improve the ability to shape the network
Status: Last Draft balloted was D 16.0 – Published Feb 2011
Page 52Version 1.0 IEEE 802 March 2011 workshop
EEE802
TGv Content – Increased Station Power Saving
• Traffic Filtering Service
• Enables the AP to filter traffic for the station, and deliver only frames of a specified type.
• WNM-Sleep Mode
• Provides an additional, extended power save mode.
• When used with the Traffic Filtering Service, can provide significant station power savings, and provide a “Wake on WLAN” service.
• Flexible Broadcast/Multicast service
• Enables multicast frames to be sent at longer delivery intervals and higher data rates, improving performance of multicast applications, and reducing station “awake time”
• Proxy ARP
• Enables stations to remain in power save mode longer
• TIM Broadcast – Enables stations to check for queued traffic without receiving a full Beacon frame.
Page 53Version 1.0 IEEE 802 March 2011 workshop
EEE802
Example TGv Based Applications
• “Wake on WLAN” Service– Stations sleep and are “awakened” when specific frames are received– Example application: User leaves corporate desktop in “sleep
mode”, goes home, uses VPN from home to corporate LAN, wakes up and uses desktop remotely
– Reduces power consumption of end devices, even stationary ones• Improved client power saving
• Proxy ARP, TIM Broadcast, FBMS, Sleep Mode, Traffic Filtering
• “Wireless Speakers” – Use Location services timing measurements to support audio synchronization
• Improved Multicast Performance• Network Diagnostic Analysis/Troubleshooting
• Co-located Interference Reporting, Diagnostic Reporting, Event Reporting, Multicast Diagnostics Reporting

EEE802
802.11w – Protected Management Frames
• One of the frame types defined in 802.11 is “Action” sub-type “Management”
• Management frames were previously less well protected than data frames.
• The objective of this was to improve the security by providing data confidentiality of action management frames, deauthentication and disassociation frames
• This standard protects networks from attack by malicious systems that forge disassociation requests that appear to be sent by valid equipment
• Status: Last Draft balloted was D 10.0 – Published 2009
Page 55Version 1.0 IEEE 802 March 2011 workshop
EEE802
802.11z Tunneled Direct Link
• The purposes of this amendment are to create a new DLS mechanism which:
a) Does not require access point upgrades (i.e. supports DLS operation with the non-DLS capable access points),
b) Which supports power save mode (when associated with either DLS or non-DLS capable access points), and
c) Continues to allow operation of DLS in the presence of existing DLS capable access points
• Status: Last Draft balloted was D 13.0 – Published 2010

EEE802
802.11 AA Video Transport Stream • Provides a set of enhancements to 802.11 MAC to significantly improve video
streaming performance while maintaining data and voice performance by improving Multicast/Broadcast video streams for link reliability with low delay and jitter.
• Enhancements to the 802.11 MAC for robust video streaming offer:– Interworking with relevant 802.1 mechanisms including, but not limited to,
802.1Qat, 802.1Qav and 802.1AS – Graceful degradation of video streams when there is insufficient channel capacity. – Increasing robustness in overlapping BSS environments, without the requirement
for a centralised management entity.
• Modifying EDCA timing and parameter selection for video transport
• Status: Just completed WG balloting of draft 3.0 – preparing to go to Sponsor Ballot
Page 58Version 1.0 IEEE 802 March 2011 workshop
EEE802
802.11AC Very High Throughput <6GHz
• Goal: A multi-user BSS peak aggregated throughput of at least 1Gbps as measured at the MAC data service access point (SAP) [new term MU-MIMO, multi-user MIMO]
• Robust and flexible bandwidth management: native support for simultaneous multiple bandwidth operation (within a given frequency band)
• Add optional outdoor compatible delay spread resistance• Below 6GHz carrier frequency operation excluding 2.4GHz
operation and ensuring backward compatibility with legacy IEEE802.11a/n devices in the 5GHz unlicensed band.
• Status: 0.1 draft out for review – planning to begin balloting on D1.0 in March 2011

802.11AD Very High Throughput Market drivers for Very High Throughput wireless LAN, include:
– Never ending quest for higher performance computing drives higher processing power.
– Media appliances are moving to HD content, driving 10X storage capacity and bandwidth requirements.
• Mainstream Wired LAN products have shifted to Gigabit per second speeds. The trend for a purely wireless campus drives the need for wired equivalent multi-Gigabit per second wireless solutions.
Aggregate capacity increase using reduced cell sizes.
• Status: Completed preparation of draft 1.0 – balloted in WG October 2010. Preparing comment resolutions for next draft revision and ballot.

802.11ae QoS for Management Frames
• This project will consider the classification and prioritization of management frames
• All IEEE 802.11 MAC management frames are transmitted at the highest priority.
• Previous amendments ‘k’, ‘y’, ‘w’, ‘v’, and ‘u’ have introduced features that rely on management frames, which are essential for network operation.
• In some cases, the management traffic will contend with network data traffic and reduce the performance of certain WLAN applications.
• Providing a mechanism to prioritize management frames will enable improved performance of IEEE 802.11 networks
• This project will consider management frames that are used in both pre-
and post- association.• Management frames of subtype Action will be considered. Other
management frame types may be considered.
• Status: Just completed ballot on 2nd draft.

802.11af - Operation in the TV White Spaces
• This project will make the necessary MAC and PHY changes to enable 802.11 products to take advantage of this additional spectrum available due to the global transition to Digital TV (DTV) and lightly used sub-Gigahertz RF spectrum now becoming available, much of it for unlicensed, license exempt and/or lightly licensed use.
• Example, On November 4, 2008, the United States FCC approved Report & Order 08-260, allowing unlicensed use of TV band spectrum, in accordance with Part 15. Subpart H of FCC rules. Ofcom (UK) is in the process of making this Digital Dividend band available, and the EU has conducted a consultation on the band. Other regulatory domains are expected to follow.
• Status: Produced draft 1.0 – just completed first ballot in February 2011
