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 or visit
See IEEE-SA Standards Board Operations Manual, clause and “Promoting Competition and Innovation: What You Need to Know about the IEEE Standards Association's Antitrust and Competition Policy” for more details.

“… whether to modify the current technical and policy framework for radio local area network (RLAN) devices operating in the MHz frequency band.”
Draft response assigned to:
Rich Kennedy, HP Enterprise

16. ISED Questions February 2017
The Department is seeking comments on the following points:
the demand for and benefit, if any, of allowing HPODs in the MHz frequency band before WRC-19.
the potential impacts on domestic and foreign satellite systems in the MHz frequency band of authorizing HPODs use prior to WRC-19 on the basis of a maximum e.i.r.p. of 4 W. Requirements for an elevation mask towards satellites and an exclusion zone of 25 km around receiving earth stations to protect all satellite systems would likely also apply.
should the Department proceed to authorize HPODs use prior to WRC- 19, what regulatory approach would best ensure a balance of timely deployment and the protection of other existing and future services in the MHz frequency band? Also, indicate any and all considerations that should be given to equipment standards, technical requirements, eligibility criteria and/or conditions of licence depending on the relevant approach.
