doc.: IEEE Submission November 2013 Dotlic, Li, Hernandez, Miura (NICT), Verso, McLaughlin (Decawave) Overall Merged proposal includes: DecaWave IEEE a based proposal NICT OOK proposal Commonality among proposals: The same concatenated coding scheme. In order to lower the impact of interference among two radios: Two different preamble sequences sets. Two different pulse repetition frequencies.
