Reply letter to liaison statement from ITU-T G.vlc to
WG chair informed TG chair about the need for further clarification. Letter has not been sent out yet.
Objectives:
Establish contacts/joint meeting with several chipset vendors working on a similar project with similar scope.
High-bandwidth PHY is based on G.hn specification and may be integrated under MAC. Technical support would be helpful on the interface between IEEE MAC and G.hn/vlc PHY.
IEEE needs copyright for reproducing text from ITU-T specs.
Note that not all members in ITU-T are also active in Request LoA from other members that are not already involved in if necessary.
