TG13 Motion #5 TG13 moves that: May 2015 doc.: IEEE 802.11-15/0496r1 September 2017 TG13 Motion #5 TG13 moves that: all text on RPO-OFDM is removed from D1 in order to separate data transmission and dimming. Moved by: John Seconded by: Volker Y/N/A:  3/0/0 Volker Jungnickel (Fraunhofer HHI) Edward Au (Marvell Semiconductor)

TG13 Motion #6 TG13 moves that: May 2015 doc.: IEEE 802.11-15/0496r1 September 2017 TG13 Motion #6 TG13 moves that: The way forward on VPPM is to keep it in the standard as one possible modulation method of the Pulsed Modulation PHY. Informative text on the principles of dimming will be contained in Section 4. Implementation details will be described in an Annex. Moved by: Mohammad Seconded by: John Y/N/A:  3/0/0 Volker Jungnickel (Fraunhofer HHI) Edward Au (Marvell Semiconductor)

TG13 Motion #7 TG13 moves that: May 2015 doc.: IEEE 802.11-15/0496r1 September 2017 TG13 Motion #7 TG13 moves that: The concepts of visibility pattern and compensation time for dimming support will be removed from the specification since dimming has been moved to the Annex. Moved by: Mohammad Seconded by: John Y/N/A:  3/0/0 Volker Jungnickel (Fraunhofer HHI) Edward Au (Marvell Semiconductor)

TG13 Motion #8 TG13 moves that: May 2015 doc.: IEEE 802.11-15/0496r1 September 2017 TG13 Motion #8 TG13 moves that: Color function shall be moved to the Appendix H, as agreed in previous comment resolution in doc. 15-17-0297-02, as it belongs to the user interface and is not part of the PHY and MAC layer defined in TG13. Moved by: John Seconded by: Volker Y/N/A:  3/0/0 Volker Jungnickel (Fraunhofer HHI) Edward Au (Marvell Semiconductor)

TG13 Motion #9 TG13 moves that: Moved by Volker May 2015 doc.: IEEE 802.11-15/0496r1 September 2017 TG13 Motion #9 TG13 moves that: The WG Chair is asked to sent a reply to the ITU-T SG15 Q18 concerning the G.vlc work item. The draft text is contained in doc. 15-17-0546-00-0013. The WG chair is allowed final editing to this document. Moved by Volker Seconded by Sang-Kyu Lim Motion is approved by unanimous consent.
