April 2007 doc.: IEEE 802.11-07/0570r0 July 2010 Response to ITU-R Liaison to IEEE on “Multiple Gigabit Wireless Systems in frequencies around 60 GHz” Date: 2010-07-12 Authors: Carlos Cordeiro, Intel Corporation Eldad Perahia, Intel Corporation

July 2010 Background ITU-R Working party 5A (WP 5A) at its May 2010 meeting initiated the development of a Report and a Recommendation on Multiple Gigabit Wireless Systems (MGWS) operating around 60 GHz The IEEE received a liaison statement from the ITU-R soliciting input for the development of this Report and Recommendation This document proposes an IEEE 802.11 response to the ITU-R liaison Carlos Cordeiro, Intel Corporation

Proposed IEEE 802.11 response July 2010 Proposed IEEE 802.11 response Summary of response: Included a cover letter Main changes to Recommendation: simplification of the spectrum allocation text, inclusion of parameters for coexistence, inclusion of receive sensitivity levels, and inclusion of clear channel access rules Main change to Report: inclusion of a technical summary of the IEEE 802.11ad draft specification The proposed IEEE 802.11 response to ITU-R is in the attached file Carlos Cordeiro, Intel Corporation
