12. doc.: IEEE 802.15-10-0538-00-004g Submission June, 2010 Larry Taylor, DTC (UK)Slide 12 General Comment on Figures 22x All the information contained in the PHY Mode figures is already contained elsewhere in the specification There is a comment suggesting to move the figures to an informative annex Alternative is to delete them as they are redundant This would also obviate the need to add new figures for MR-O-QPSK and OFDM PHY Modes

13. doc.: IEEE 802.15-10-0538-00-004g Submission June, 2010 Larry Taylor, DTC (UK)Slide 13 June, 2010 Larry Taylor, DTC (UK)Slide 13 Note to Editors - add Figures 22m… Create figures in the PHY modes list for MR-O-QPSK –In each figure set the Page number to 7 –In each figure set bits 20-21 to (1,0) and define it as O-QPSK Frequency band values are: –779-787 is band 15 –868-870 is band … presumably band 2 –902-928 is band 3 … presumably the 915 band –2400-2483.5 is band 4 For each frequency band in Table 75p and Table 75q define the figure with: –Bits 26-22 corresponding to the Frequency Band index in Table 3a –Bits 19-5 Reserved –Bit 4 set to the Spreading Mode –Bits 3-0 set to 1 –Define rows for the 4 PHY Modes defined in each band as per table 75p and table 75q

For each frequency band in Table 1 with OFDM in the Modulation column –In each figure set the Page number to 7 –In each figure set bits 20-21 to (0,1) and define it as OFDM Frequency band values are: –470 is band 7 –780 is band 15 –868-870 is band 2 –915 is band 3 –922 is band 16 –950 is band 0 –2400-2483.5 is band 4 For each frequency band define the figure using Option and MCS values from Table 75f: –Bits 26-22 corresponding to the Frequency Band index in Table 3a –Bits 19-13 Reserved –Bits 12-9 set to the Option value –Bits 8-0 set to the MCS values supported

16. doc.: IEEE 802.15-10-0538-00-004g Submission June, 2010 Larry Taylor, DTC (UK)Slide 16 Global Corrections In all tables defining PIB Attributes, rename “Range” to “Valid Range” Change all Valid Range definitions of the type “x/8 octets or x bits” to “x bits” –x/8 is not the number of octets required to contain x bits – it is Ceiling(x/8). We do not need to tell the reader there are 8 bits in an octet….

17. doc.: IEEE 802.15-10-0538-00-004g Submission June, 2010 Larry Taylor, DTC (UK)Slide 17 6.4.2, Table 31 Rename “Range” to “Valid Range” Row 1 phyMaxSUNChannelSupported –Change the Valid Range column to a range in agreement with changes to channel number range –Change Description column to: phyMaxSUNChannelSupported defines the highest channel number supported and therefore defines the number of bits in phySUNChannelsSupported

18. doc.: IEEE 802.15-10-0538-00-004g Submission June, 2010 Larry Taylor, DTC (UK)Slide 18 Section 6.4.2, Table 31a Rename “Range” to “Valid Range” Row 3 NumChannels –Change the Valid Range column to a range in agreement with changes to channel number range Row 4 Channel Spacing –Change the Valid Range column to: 1,, 1,200 –Change the Description column to: The distance between adjacent channel center frequencies in kHz Row 5 Data Rate –Change Type column to: Float –Change Valid Range column to: 1-1,000 –Change the Description column to: The data rate in kbps. Row 6 Modulation Scheme –Delete row – duplicate information to table 3b
