Subject: +++LMSC review+++ a draft submission to Australia ACMA's consultation
To: <STDS-802-LMSC@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>
Dear IEEE 802 LMSC members,
Greetings!!
I would like to request the review of the following draft IEEE 802 LMSC submission before asking the LMSC to consider approval of the submission tentatively via a letter ballot in the near future.
On 5 November 2025, Australian Communications and Media Authority (ACMA) began a consultation that solicits public opinions on the following matters related to the use of AFC (Automatic Frequency Coordination) at the 6 GHz band:
- the respective roles of government and industry
- potential licensing and authorisation frameworks
- system, technical and operational considerations
- benefits and risks to users and incumbents
- planning matters, such as geographic and frequency arrangements.
A few individuals prepared a response to the administration's proposal and answered all of the questions. The submission was approved by IEEE 802.18 on 13 January 2026 with the following voting results: 20 Yes, 0 No, 3 Abstain.
Link to the draft response:
Reference:
Please kindly let me know if you have any comments or suggestions preferably by Tuesday, 20 January 2026.
Thanks and Regards,
Edward
