802.15.3 SB No Vote Resolution D15 Remaining Disapprove Votes: March 2003 802.15.3 SB No Vote Resolution D15 Remaining Disapprove Votes: Raju Gubbi – 5 Comments (1 Rebuttal) Rene Struik – 32 Comments (No Response) All disapprove comments were provided to the sponsor ballot pool along with D16. No additional NO votes were received supporting these comments. D16 had 97% approval. D16 Remaining Disapprove Votes: Rene Struik – 3 Comments (No Response) Dr. John R. Barr, Motorola

March 2003 CID 153 Rebuttal Rajugopal Gubbi submitted the following comment during the 802.15.3/D15 sponsor ballot:   CID 153: Clause: 00 Subclause: 00 Page: 00 Line: 00 Comment Type: TR COMMENT START: Summarise all PHY timing parameters in one table in 11.2.7 ref: CID 69 - LB22 A summary all PHY dependent parameters (aCCADetectTime,aPHYSIFS-Time etc.) in a table with actual values at one place instead of spreading them all around the PHY clause is very desirable from implementors'view. An example would be Table-64 for MAC parameters. Although Table-120 provides a list of just the IFS parameters in a table, even there the for actual values the readers have to scrouge through the individual subclauses, which can easily be avoided. COMMENT END: SUGGESTED REMEDY: Make the change as requested. SUGGESTED REMEDY END: RESPONSE: ACCEPT IN PRINCIPLE. Make a table of all of the pZZZYyy parameters and their values, this will follow the format of table 65 in clause 8. RESPONSE END: Dr. John R. Barr, Motorola

Rajugopal Gubbi’s Email Response (18Feb2003): March 2003 Rajugopal Gubbi’s Email Response (18Feb2003): TR-153 - Why is this ACCEPT in PRINCIPAL? Why not simplify the process by saying ACCEPT? If there is any deviation to listing parameters in one, single comprehensive table, the resolution will be unacceptable to me. 802.15.3 Technical Editor’s Reply (19Feb2003): In the suggested resolution, you did not exactly specify what was to be done, so it was an accept in principle. To do an Accept, we need exact text or changes to be made. I put the following parameters in one table: pPHYMIFSTime, pPHYSIFSTime, pCCADetectTime, pPHYChannelSwitchTime with the associated timing information. It makes it more difficult to read the PHY clause in the draft to have them in a single table rather than the location where the measurement is defined, but it wasn't a big deal to move them either. In any event, the comment is really editorial, we have not changed any of the technical requirements in the standard, just the location of the information. All of the timing information is defined in exactly the same way as it was before. Dr. John R. Barr, Motorola

D16 added Table 80: PHY layer timing parameters. March 2003 D16 added Table 80: PHY layer timing parameters. 802.15.3 Chair’s Request to D16 sponsor ballot negative voters (8March2003): Please submit a recirculation ballot with your vote on D16. This will help us get a clean record for all of the previous NO voters. Rajugopal Gubbi’s Response (9March2003): Please refer to the following section of the SB announcement. "NOTE: You must respond to a Recirculation Ballot if you wish to change your initial vote. If you do not respond to a Recirculation Ballot, your last vote will be carried forward." Hence what you are asking is completely unnecessary, since the NO votes will be carried through. 802.13.3 Chair’s Request for Reconsideration (12March2003): Please review D16 and your comments one more time and let me know whether the new draft satisfies any of your outstanding unsatisfied comment resolutions from the first sponsor ballot. End of Resolution Record for CID 153. Dr. John R. Barr, Motorola
