These results fulfill part of the “Development Plan for 802.16.1 Air Interface Standard” 802.16-99/05. The results are output from 802.16 session #5. They are the output from the session #5score compilation committee.
At session #6, 802.16 observers were also invited to submit score cards. The observer results arealso contained in this document.
This document contains summary statistics and scoring results. 802.16 members also have accessto a report which contains all voters’ score cards.
802.16 members and observers should use this report to consider further improvements, mergers, This document has been prepared to assist the IEEE 802.16.

Four proposals, 2 MAC an d 2 PHY, were scored in many different categories. The “evaluation criteria” for
session #6 is for a proposal to achieve a average score of 7.0 or better in any category. A voter could abstain in
any category of any proposal. Additionally, an “overall score” category was scored, which was not included in
the evaluation criteria.
2 Mac Results
Both MAC proposals met the evaluation criteria. 26 ballots were processed.

(See Document IEEE 802.16s-99/00) 2 Spectrum efficiency Defined in terms of single sector capacity assuming all available spectrum is being utilized (either in terms of Gbps/Available Spectrum or in terms of Mbps/MHz) 3 Simplicity of implementation How well does the proposed PHY allow for simple implementation or how does it leverage on existing technologies? 4 CPE cost optimization How does the proposed PHY affect CPE cost? 5 Spectrum resource flexibility Flexibility in the use of the frequency band (i.e., minimum frequency band required to operate and migration capabilities) 6 System diversity flexibility How flexible is the proposed PHY to any other system variations and future technology improvements or new services? 7 Protocol Interfacing complexity Interaction with other layers of the protocol, specifically MAC and NMS 8 Implication on other network interfaces Intrinsic transport efficiency of telecomm and datacomm services 9 Reference system gain* Sector coverage performance for a typical BWA deployment scenario (supply, reference system gain) *In order to compare between PHY proposals, we define the reference system gain (RSG) as the output power of the transmitter minus the receiver threshold at a given working point, including back-off required for proper transmission. We will assume a 0 dBW transmitter (prior to back-off), and an ideal LNA (0 dB NF). Include BER working points of both 10-6 and 10-10 (post-coding).
