6 IEEE-SA Standards Board Bylaws on Patents in Standards
Month 1998 doc.: IEEE /xxx November 2003 IEEE-SA Standards Board Bylaws on Patents in Standards 6. Patents 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. This assurance shall be provided without coercion and prior to approval of the standard (or reaffirmation when a patent becomes known after initial approval of the standard). This assurance shall be a letter that is in the form of either a) A general disclaimer to the effect that the patentee will not enforce any of its present or future patent(s) whose use would be required to implement the proposed IEEE standard against any person or entity using the patent(s) to comply with the standard or b) A statement that a license will be made available without compensation or under reasonable rates, with reasonable terms and conditions that are demonstrably free of any unfair discrimination This assurance shall apply, at a minimum, from the date of the standard's approval to the date of the standard's withdrawal and is irrevocable during that period.

7 Inappropriate Topics for IEEE WG Meetings
Month 1998 doc.: IEEE /xxx November 2003 Inappropriate Topics for IEEE WG Meetings Don’t discuss licensing terms or conditions Don’t discuss product pricing, territorial restrictions or market share Don’t discuss ongoing litigation or threatened litigation Don’t be silent if inappropriate topics are discussed… do formally object. If you have questions, contact the IEEE Patent Committee Administrator at Approved by IEEE-SA Standards Board – December 2002 Bob O'Hara, Airespace, Inc. John Doe, His Company

8 Interpretation Procedure
November 2003 Interpretation Procedure Send to Linda Gargiulo IEEE forwards requests to the WG WG responds Bob O'Hara, Airespace, Inc.

9 Interpretation Requests
November 2003 Interpretation Requests Key Mapping Key Usage Probe Request Usage Probe Response Usage Bob O'Hara, Airespace, Inc.

10 Interpretation Request
November 2003 Interpretation Request What are Key Mapping Keys intended for? Five scenarios were described. Bob O'Hara, Airespace, Inc.

11 Interpretation Response
November 2003 Interpretation Response The standard describes scenarios 1, 2, 4, and 5. These are all the same scenario, where the AP is performing the distribution service for a frame received from a mobile STA associated with it. This case is unambiguously described in the pseudo code of clause for both transmission and reception. That is, key mappings are for use between a single RA/TA pair only. Scenario 3 is forbidden by not allowing a proper frame to be constructed with such addresses in clause 7.1, Table 2 and 7.3, Table 4. The standard is unambiguously describes the use of the same key from the dot11WEPKeyMappingsTable for both transmission and reception in the pseudo code of clause There is nothing in the dot11WEPKeyMappingsTable in the MIB to allow differentiation of a transmission key from a reception key when key mapping is being used. Bob O'Hara, Airespace, Inc.

12 November 2003 Motion to adopt Moved: That document r0 be adopted as the response to the interpretation request regarding key mapping key usage. Moved: Terry Cole Seconded: Andrew Myles Vote: 5/0/2 Bob O'Hara, Airespace, Inc.

13 November 2003 Motion to forward to WG Motion: to request the working group to accept and forward the interpretation response contained in document r0 to Linda Gargiulo at the IEEE office as the official response of the working group. Moved: Darwin Engwer Seconded: Tim Wong Vote: 5/0/1 Bob O'Hara, Airespace, Inc.
