Patent Policy and Procedures: The contributor is familiar with the IEEE 802 Patent Policy and Procedures, including the statement "IEEE standards may include the known use of patent(s), including patent applications, provided the IEEE receives assurance from the patent holder or applicant with respect to patents essential for compliance with both mandatory and optional portions of the standard." Early disclosure to the Working Group of patent information that might be relevant to the standard is essential to reduce the possibility for delays in the development process and increase the likelihood that the draft publication will be approved for publication. Please notify the Chair as early as possible, in written or electronic form, if patented technology (or technology under patent application) might be incorporated into a draft standard being developed within the IEEE 802.11 Working Group.

6. doc.: IEEE 802.11-05/0958r0 Submission September 2005 Knut Evensen, Q-Free ASASlide 6 SRD System Reference Documents forms the basis for decisions, often spectrum allocations One relevant SRD for 802.11p – split in three parts: –Part 1:Intelligent Transport Systems (ITS); Technical characteristics for pan-European protected communications equipment operating in the 5 GHz frequency range and intended for critical road safety applications; –Part 2:Intelligent Transport Systems (ITS); Technical characteristics for protected communications equipment operating in the 5 GHz frequency range on a national basis intended for road safety and traffic management applications; –Part 3:Intelligent Transport Systems (ITS); Technical characteristics for non-protected communications equipment operating in the 5,470 GHz to 5,725 GHz frequency range. Characteristics –Part 1: 20 MHz protected on a pan-European basis –Part 2: 40 MHz protected on a national basis –Part 3: Unprotected use of unlicensed spectrum for ITS Status –Most probably allocations in the range 5.825 – 5.95 GHz, but may have to share spectrum –Concern over interference with CEN DSRC (5.8 GHz) –Spectrum study has started – no information on how long the process will take.
