Other Guidelines for IEEE WG Meetings March 2015 Other Guidelines for IEEE WG Meetings All IEEE-SA standards meetings shall be conducted in compliance with all applicable laws, including antitrust and competition laws. Don’t discuss the interpretation, validity, or essentiality of patents/patent claims. Don’t discuss specific license rates, terms, or conditions. Relative costs, including licensing costs of essential patent claims, of different technical approaches may be discussed in standards development meetings. Technical considerations remain primary focus Don’t discuss or engage in the fixing of product prices, allocation of customers, or division of sales markets. Don’t discuss the status or substance of ongoing or threatened litigation. Don’t be silent if inappropriate topics are discussed… do formally object. --------------------------------------------------------------- If you have questions, contact the IEEE-SA Standards Board Patent Committee Administrator at patcom@ieee.org or visit http://standards.ieee.org/about/sasb/patcom/index.html See IEEE-SA Standards Board Operations Manual, clause 5.3.10 and “Promoting Competition and Innovation: What You Need to Know about the IEEE Standards Association's Antitrust and Competition Policy” for more details.

Introduction Outputs from this group must go through 802.18 March 2015 Purpose Improve the working relationship between the technical experts and the regulatory specialists, especially when it comes to critical technical issues Scope The group will review new regulatory changes or impending changes affecting 802.11 and 802.15 standards Each meeting will focus on the most critical issue at the time Critical Issue Focus Direct impact on IEEE 802.11 and 802.15 current and future standards Response/Input deadlines Coordination with IEEE 802.18 (RR-TAG) Coordination with the Wi-Fi Alliance Outputs from this group must go through 802.18 Rich Kennedy, MediaTek

Tuesday AM1 DSRC Coexistence Tiger Team Any final thoughts? March 2015 Tuesday AM1 DSRC Coexistence Tiger Team Introduction Review the straw poll results Discuss The Report Commissioners’ suggestion Letter to the FCC Motion to endorse The Report Any final thoughts? Recess until Thursday Rich Kennedy, MediaTek

DSRC Coexistence TT Wrap-up March 2015 DSRC Coexistence TT Wrap-up Tiger Team has been meeting since August 2013 (20 months) Two proposals heard Detect and Avoid (Peter E.) DSRC spectrum modification (Tevfik) FCC informed of this work in February of 2014 FCC Chairman Wheeler’s letter to Senator Rubio Straw Polls FCC blog post of Commissioners O’Rielly and Rosenworcel https://www.fcc.gov/blog/driving-wi-fi-ahead-upper-5-ghz-band Finishing the work Tiger Team straw polls Letter to the FCC Final steps depend on the outcome the WG vote WG Report in 11-15/0293r0 Rich Kennedy, MediaTek

March 2015 The Tiger Team The 802.11/5 Regulatory SC set up the DSRC Coexistence Tiger Team with the intent of: Collecting the opinions of all parties in this issue, so the WG could see the full picture, not just the views of IEEE 802.11 voters Further explain the to each side what the objections to the two proposals were Holding discussions between the two sides to see if there was some way that a compromise solution could be achieved Creating a report to the FCC that shows every effort was made to find common ground Failing a compromise, demonstrating that IEEE 802.11 did make every effort to find a solution that worked for all Rich Kennedy, MediaTek

March 2015 The Proposals Over the full course of this TT activities, only two sharing methods have been proposed A DFS-like approach, whereby the 802.11 APs monitor the DSRC channels, and move to another channel (or leave the DSRC band completely) for a predetermined period of time, after which it checks to see if the channel is clear and can return A reconfiguration of the DSRC channels to avoid 802.11 transmissions in the safety-of-life channels, which have been moved to the high end of the DSRC band, thus allowing operation with no need to detect and avoid these transmissions, and share the lower DSRC channels using existing sharing mechanisms Rich Kennedy, MediaTek

Next Steps Ask the 802.11 WG to endorse the report March 2015 Next Steps Ask the 802.11 WG to endorse the report The report clearly states that no proposal was selected, and that attendance and participation in the straw polls was dominated (~60/40) by the DSRC community We can endorse the report without agreeing with its conclusions Endorsement or non-endorsement will be stated in the FCC letter Approval of the letter by 802.18 and the 802 EC Submit to the FCC with the report if endorsed Submit without the report if not endorsed Independent testing will occur using both techniques If solutions are found, and will require amendment of a standard, may be brought to the WNG later this year Rich Kennedy, MediaTek
