  ITU-T A.5 justification information for referenced document IEEE 802.11-2007 in draft J.296
1. Clear description of the referenced document:
Name: IEEE 802.11-2007
Title: IEEE Standard for Information technology - Telecommunications and information exchange between systems- Local and metropolitan area networks- Specific requirements Part 11: Wireless LAN Medium Access Control (MAC) and Physical Layer (PHY) Specifications
2. Status of approval:
Approved by IEEE
3. Justification for the specific reference:
IEEE 802.11 is an essential part of Wireless LAN MAC and PHY specfication and is included as normative reference rather than including the full text.
4. Current information, if any, about IPR issues:
No known issues.
5. Other useful information describing the "Quality" of the document:
The document is in existence, in previous versions, from 1999. It "wireless fidelity" WiFi standard defined by IEEE 802.11 is very widely used technology.
6. The degree of stability or maturity of the document:
It is an approved IEEE standard. The 2007 revision was published on March 2006. IEEE802.11 is a standard approved by IEEE SA in 2007.
7. Relationship with other existing or emerging documents:
None
8. Any explicit references within that referenced document should also be listed:
