3. EC Discussion following Denver EC meeting
August 2008
EC Discussion following Denver EC meeting
Bruce Kraemer, Bob Heile, Paul Nikolich and Steve Shellhammer held a conference call on July 24 to discuss a path forward for the VHT60 PAR
Proposed modifications to VHT60 PAR
A stronger declaration of coexistence with c in the Scope of the PAR. Possible wording that could be used is the wording used in the motion to amend during the closing EC meeting, Replace the text "Addresses coexistence with other wireless systems" with the text "Ensure coexistence with IEEE c.“
Adding a definition of coexistence in the Additional Notes section. One possible definition is the definition in , which was approved by both the and working groups.
Adding c and ECMA TC48 to section 7.1 (Projects will similar scope) of the PAR

4. Subsequent EC discussion on “ensure coexistence”

Subsequent EC discussion on “ensure coexistence”
“It has been brought up by several people that the term "ensure" is almost a synonym for "guarantee" which was not the intention.”
New VHT60 scope wording proposal by Steve Shellhammer
Supports mechanisms to enable coexistence with IEEE c

New Proposed Changes to PAR (1/2)
5.2 Scope of Proposed Standard: The scope of this project is to define an amendment that shall define standardized modifications to both the physical layers (PHY) and the Medium Access Control Layer (MAC) to enable operation in the 60 GHz frequency band (typically GHz) capable of very high throughput. The MAC and PHY specified in this amendment:
Enables a maximum throughput of at least 1 Gbps, as measured at the MAC data service access point (SAP)
Enables fast session transfer between PHYs
Maintains the user experience
Supports mechanisms to enable coexistence with IEEE c Addresses coexistence and with other systems in the band
