5. doc.: IEEE 802.15- 07/0655r1 Submission March 2007 Jay Bain, Fearn ConsultingSlide 5 Problems encountered in populating the spreadsheet Several application documents are rich in description of critical issues such as SAR while not expanding greatly on other characteristics of the application. Deciding how far to expand application categories was a question and the spreadsheet reflects this.
