James,

The 802.16b (WirelessHUMAN) PAR includes, in the Purpose, that 
statement that the project "will identify techniques to tolerate 
interference in the unlicensed bands and facilitate strategies for 
coexistence with other unlicensed band systems such as 802.11 and 
802.15."

People from 802.16's TG4, which is leading the development of 
802.16b, will participate in the new 802 Coexistence Study Group 
that, to my understanding, was created to consider how coexistence 
across Working Groups should best be addressed. David Chauncey 
<dchauncey@clearwire.com>, TG4's Coexistence Liaison is the key 
contact in 802.16 on this issue.

Regards,

Roger
