2 doc.: IEEE 802.11-13/0021r0 Submission January 2013 Jon Rosdahl (CSR)Slide 2 Abstract This slide contains requested reports and status from the 802.11 1 st Vice-Chair: Current Patent Slides Updated on Rules, P&P and OM for IEEE-SA, IEEE 802, and IEEE 802.11

3 doc.: IEEE 802.11-13/0021r0 Submission January 2013 Jon Rosdahl (CSR)Slide 3 Participants, Patents, and Duty to Inform All participants in this meeting have certain obligations under the IEEE-SA Patent Policy. –Participants [Note: Quoted text excerpted from IEEE-SA Standards Board Bylaws subclause 6.2]: “Shall inform the IEEE (or cause the IEEE to be informed)” of the identity of each “holder of any potential Essential Patent Claims of which they are personally aware” if the claims are owned or controlled by the participant or the entity the participant is from, employed by, or otherwise represents –“Personal awareness” means that the participant “is personally aware that the holder may have a potential Essential Patent Claim,” even if the participant is not personally aware of the specific patents or patent claims “Should inform the IEEE (or cause the IEEE to be informed)” of the identity of “any other holders of such potential Essential Patent Claims” (that is, third parties that are not affiliated with the participant, with the participant’s employer, or with anyone else that the participant is from or otherwise represents) –The above does not apply if the patent claim is already the subject of an Accepted Letter of Assurance that applies to the proposed standard(s) under consideration by this group –Early identification of holders of potential Essential Patent Claims is strongly encouraged –No duty to perform a patent search

4 doc.: IEEE 802.11-13/0021r0 Submission January 2013 Jon Rosdahl (CSR)Slide 4 Patent Related Links All participants should be familiar with their obligations under the IEEE-SA Policies & Procedures for standards development. Patent Policy is stated in these sources: IEEE-SA Standards Boards Bylaws http://standards.ieee.org/develop/policies/bylaws/sect6-7.html#6 IEEE-SA Standards Board Operations Manual http://standards.ieee.org/develop/policies/opman/sect6.html#6.3 Material about the patent policy is available at http://standards.ieee.org/about/sasb/patcom/materials.html 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 This slide set is available at https://development.standards.ieee.org/myproject/Public/mytools/mob/slideset.ppt

5 doc.: IEEE 802.11-13/0021r0 Submission January 2013 Jon Rosdahl (CSR)Slide 5 Call for Potentially Essential Patents If anyone in this meeting is personally aware of the holder of any patent claims that are potentially essential to implementation of the proposed standard(s) under consideration by this group and that are not already the subject of an Accepted Letter of Assurance: –Either speak up now or –Provide the chair of this group with the identity of the holder(s) of any and all such claims as soon as possible or –Cause an LOA to be submitted

12 doc.: IEEE 802.11-13/0021r0 Submission Text for 7.5 Qualifying Interim In section 7 the voting membership requirement is “2 of 4 consecutive plenaries, one of which may be substituted by an interim”. This sub- section defines which interims qualify for this substitution. The rule is that any interim after the first of the 4 consecutive plenaries is a qualifying interim. This is illustrated below, where P stands for a plenary and I stands for an interim. The qualifying sessions are shown in bold underlined. After a plenary: …P I P I P I P I P I P After an interim: … P I P I P I P I P I P I January 2013 Jon Rosdahl (CSR)Slide 12
