IEEE 802.16 Mobile Wireless MAN Study Group

July-November 2002

On 12 July 2002, the IEEE Working Group 802.16 on Broadband Wireless Access initiated (with the later approval of the IEEE 802 LMSC Sponsor Executive Committee) the IEEE 802.16 Mobile Wireless MAN Study Group. The Study Group was chartered to operate through 15 November 2002. This was a successor to the 802.16 Mobile Broadband Wireless Access Study Group (March-July 2002).

The Study Group led the development of Project Authorization Request (PAR) 802.16e for Combined Fixed and Mobile Operation in Licensed Bands. The PAR was forwarded by the Study Group on 14 November 2002, by the IEEE 802.16 Working Group on 14 November 2002, and by the IEEE 802 Executive Committee on 15 November 2002. On 11 December 2002, it was then approved by the IEEE-SA Standards Board, thereby authorizing the project.
