Enhanced Broadcast Services (eBCS) is a new initiative within the IEEE 802.11 working group that will consider broadcast service enhancements within an 802.11-based network. The initiative started as a Technical Interest Group (TIG) in the March 2018 meeting and was afterwards transformed into a Study Group (SG) chartered to create a PAR and CSD document in order to start a new amendment project to the IEEE 802.11 standard. The IEEE Standards Board approved the project in December 2018; as a result a new task group (TGbc) was created within IEEE 802.11.
The new task group is named IEEE 802.11 TGbc (Enhanced Broadcast Services).
The goal of the Enhanced Broadcast Services Task Group (IEEE 802.11 TGbc) is to draft a new amendment to the IEEE 802.11 standard.
The amendment specifies modifications to the IEEE 802.11 medium access control (MAC) specifications that enable enhanced transmission and reception of broadcast data both in an infrastructure BSS where there is an association between the transmitter and the receiver(s) and in cases where there is no association between transmitter(s) and receiver(s).
The amendment introduces origin authenticity protection for broadcast data frames.
In addition to enancing traditional broadcasting services directed from an access point (AP) towards several non-AP stations (STA), the BCS TIG/SG discussed use cases in which non-AP STAs employs broadcasting to disseminate information, e.g. in an IoT environment, to other STAs so that any of the receiving STAs may act as a access to the Internet.
The IEEE 802.11 TGbc met in Vancouver, BC, Canada, from March 12--13, 2019.
The TGbc met two times during this week.
The group discussed the following items.
The BCS SG scheduled the following teleconferences before the next face-to-face meeting:

Cancelled March 19th, 2019, 10:00h ET, 1 hour
Additional telcos may be scheduled with a 10-day notice.

The IEEE Standards Board approved in December 2018 the project authorization request. As a result, a new task group is created within IEEE 802.11 working per PAR on Enhanced Broadcasting Services (eBCS). The new task group is doneted as IEEE 802.11 TGbc (enhanced broadcast services) and will conduct its first meeting during the January face-to-face meeting of IEEE 802.11.
The Broadcasting Service (BCS) group met as a study group (SG) in Bangkok, Thailand, from November 11--15, 2018.
The BCS SG met one time during this week.
The group discussed to refine PAR and CSD documents accoring to the comments and got consensus about these documents.
The BCS SG scheduled the following teleconferences before the next face-to-face meeting:
Additional telcos may be scheduled with a 10-day notice.
