Submission doc.: IEEE /0300r1 Regulatory Landscape (some thoughts) Challenges to /Wi-Fi Globalstar in the 2.4 GHz band (FCC clearly not supportive enough) LTE-U/LAA-LTE shrinking available spectrum (FCC will not protect Wi-Fi; LTE support much more active than Wi-Fi) WRC-15 outcomes (re-studying 5 GHz band/DFS; potential good and bad) Satellite industry pressing for less 5 GHz Wi-Fi (Main Wi-Fi proponent needs funding) What is needed Increased focus on the issues, strong defense for the value Wi-Fi brings the masses Significant participation in ITU-R groups addressing 5 GHz band changes Reality check: is Wi-Fi headed for the endangered list? Scorecard IEEE 802 regulatory ineffective WFA beginning to step up Individual companies can no longer carry the load Jeckel and Hyde (Wi-Fi and LTE-U) corporations may dominate March 2016 Slide 9Rich Kennedy, HP Enterprise

Submission doc.: IEEE /0300r1 NPRM FCC AMENDMENT OF PART 15 OF THE COMMISSIONS RULES FOR UNLICENSED WHITE SPACE DEVICES C-16-23A1.PDF C-16-23A1.PDF The NPRM proposes rules that would eliminate the professional installer option for fixed white space devices and require that each fixed white space device incorporate a geolocation capability to determine its location Provides options to accommodate fixed white space devices installed where an internal geolocation capability is unable to provide location information Includes modifications to rules regarding white space device registration with white space databases Should we respond? IEEE af was complete in 2013 Slide 11Rich Kennedy, HP Enterprise March 2016

Submission doc.: IEEE /0300r1 NPRM FCC MEMORANDUM OPINION AND ORDER Response to Petitions for Reconsideration Modify the rules to provide a relaxation of the out-of-band emission (OOBE) limits for operation of U-NII-3 ( GHz) band devices Provides an alternative for manufacturers that require additional time to bring their U-NII-3 band devices into compliance with the new out-of- band limits Extend the deadline for certification of U-NII-3 band devices with more than 10dBi antenna gain to March 2, 2017 The deadline for the manufacture, marketing, sale and importation of these devices is extended until March 2, 2018 Extend the deadline for certification of U-NII-3 band devices with 10dBi or less antenna gain to March 2, 2018 The deadline for the manufacture, marketing, sale and importation of devices not meeting the modified out-of- band limits is extended until March 2, 2020 Good for the industry – do we need to respond?
