doc.: IEEE 802.15-<doc#> <month year> doc.: IEEE 802.15-<doc#> January 2006 Major modifications* All modifications were based on decisions made in November Plenary: Data rates updated to decided values: Mandatory: >2Gbps Optional: > 3Gbps Bit Rate and throughput definitions clarified Text was modified for consistency with IEEE 802.15.3-2003 terminology and to clarify definitions * An overview of major modifications is given here. For more accuracy and detail please refer to the Selection Criteria document. Alireza Seyedi, PHILIPS <author>, <company>

doc.: IEEE 802.15-<doc#> <month year> doc.: IEEE 802.15-<doc#> January 2006 Major modifications Text was modified to include the co-channel interference scenario. Added text to clarify that physical implementations or measurements are not required and simulations and calculations are sufficient. Added text to clarify that in the case an antenna array is used, the overall effective antenna gain is to be set to 10dBi. Alireza Seyedi, PHILIPS <author>, <company>
