This amendment defines modifications to both the IEEE 802.11 Medium Access Control layer (MAC) and Physical Layers (PHY) for vehicle to everything (V2X) communications for 5.9 GHz band as defined in clauses E.2.3 and E.2.4 of IEEE Std 802.11(TM)-2016; and, optionally, in the 60 GHz frequency band (57 GHz to 71 GHz) as defined in clause E.1 of IEEE Std 802.11(TM)-2016. This amendment defines at least one mode that achieves at least 2 times higher throughput (measured at the MAC data service access point) than as in IEEE Std 802.11(TM)-2016 operating at maximum mandatory data rate as defined in the 5.9 GHz band (12 Mb/s in a 10 MHz channel), in high mobility channel environments at vehicle speeds up to 250 km/h (closing speeds up to 500 km/h); this amendment also defines at least one mode that achieves at least 3dB lower sensitivity level (longer range), than that of the lowest data rate defined in IEEE Std 802.11(TM)-2016 operating in 5.9 GHz band (3 Mb/s in a 10 MHz channel); and this amendment defines procedures for at least one form of positioning in conjunction with V2X communications. This amendment shall provide interoperability, coexistence, backward compatibility, and fairness with deployed OCB (Outside the Context of a BSS) devices. The purpose of this standard is to provide wireless connectivity for fixed, portable, and moving stations within a local area. This standard also offers regulatory bodies a means of standardizing access to one or more frequency bands for the purpose of local area communication. Amendment Standard - Active. This amendment defines modifications to both the IEEE 802.11 physical layer (PHY) and the medium access control (MAC) sublayer for next generation vehicle-to-everything (V2X) communication in the 5.9 GHz and 60 GHz frequency bands.
