High-level considerations for Rel-18 package
Q&A
Careful planning and management are crucial in handling the challenges in completing
Rel-17 in time
Challenges primarily due to cancellations of physical meetings throughout the entire 2021 for all RAN
WGs
To alleviate the impact:
Two e-meetings are planned for RAN1 in 4Q’2021; two e-meetings are already planned for all RAN WGs in 1Q’2022 (in
case of potential cancellation of physical meetings); Additional planning for 2Q’2022 is to be discussed later
Important to carefully monitor Rel-17 progress and take actions when necessary
