Other Guidelines for IEEE WG Meetings January 2015 Other Guidelines for IEEE WG Meetings 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 patcom@ieee.org or visit http://standards.ieee.org/about/sasb/patcom/index.html See IEEE-SA Standards Board Operations Manual, clause 5.3.10 and “Promoting Competition and Innovation: What You Need to Know about the IEEE Standards Association's Antitrust and Competition Policy” for more details.

January 2015 IEEE802.11ac/ax ETSI EN 301 893 v1.8.1 Meeting was in Las Palmas, Gran Canaria December 16-19 LBT for load-based devices wording is open to interpretation Requirements can be met while preventing shared access Wording needs to be clarified to ensure fair spectrum sharing Output version will go into effect January 1, 2015 Corrected LBT better model for coexistence studies Rich Kennedy, MediaTek
January 2015 IEEE802.11ac/ax LAA in 5 GHz Besides the 3GPP liaison, what should IEEE 802 do? 3GPP planning simulations based on EN 301 893 v1.7.1 1.7.1 not approved 1.7.2 has sharing issues ETSI BRAN working on LBT wording for 1.8.1 Rich Kennedy, MediaTek
IEEE802.11ac/ax DSRC Coexistence Tiger Team Meeting for over one year January 2015 IEEE802.11ac/ax DSRC Coexistence Tiger Team Meeting for over one year Two proposals Proposal #1 has potential and some support from the auto industry Proposal #2 best for 802.11ac, but has no support from automakers, DOT Regulators have stated they will not make changes to DSRC channelization We will close this effort shortly Unless a compromise is proposed before November, the SC will vote on continuation of the Tiger Team beyond January 2015 in San Antonio Tiger Team will straw poll options to guide SC voting Many from DSRC community do not have IEEE802.11 voting rights Purpose of the TT was to include them regardless of voting rights What should be the deliverables if no compromise is reached? We will inform the FCC of the results when the process completes Rich Kennedy, MediaTek
