Copyright
Under the current US copyright law — the author of information is deemed to own the copyright from the moment of creation
The IEEE Bylaws require copyright of all material to be held by the IEEE
Must consult with IEEE for re-use of copyright material
The IEEE Standards accomplishes transfer of copyright ownership through the Project Authorization Request (PAR) process
The Copyright Act of 1976 made a dramatic change to U.S. copyright law. Copyright was now deemed to exist from the moment of creation. Thus anything that is created is deemed to be owned by its creator. Additionally, a work no longer needs to be published in order to be protected. Therefore, even your scribbles on a piece of note paper constitute copyrighted material that you own and control.
The NII (National Information Infrastructure) and the GII (Global Information Infrastructure) are causing lawmakers and copyright owners to assess the ability of current copyright law to protect owners rights in a digital environment. While at this point the changes being talked about are not significant, they will make it clear that copyright protection is afforded to owners in the digital environment making it a requirement to honor the rights accorded to owners.
It is a requirement under the IEEE Bylaws that copyright ownership of all material published by the IEEE resides with the IEEE. The Standards Department accomplishes the transfer of copyright ownership from the volunteer authors to the Institute via the Project Authorization Request (PAR) form.

PAR Scope, Purpose
Scope of Proposed Project:
The scope of the proposed project is the application of based systems to the MHz band in the USA.
Purpose of Proposed Project:
The purpose of this project is to standardize the mechanisms required to allow shared operation with other users in the MHz band in the USA. Likely required mechanisms include:
Specification of new regulatory classes (extending j)
Sensing of other transmitters (extending a)
Transmit Power Control (extending h)
Dynamic Frequency Selection (extending h)

15. TGy Purpose, Principles
July 2007
doc.: IEEE /2143r1
July 2007
TGy Purpose, Principles
Purpose : the Task Group should create an amendment whose implementation in solutions is likely to receive FCC approval for operation in MHz under the 47 CFR 90 subpart z rules.
Principles :
If the FCC changes the rules, the Task Group should change the amendment accordingly.
The amendment should not duplicate functionality that is being standardized in other Task Groups that are likely to complete before y. (Examples include parts of k and w)
There is no need for backwards compatibility with 2.45 GHz ISM operation. The amendment should exclude some optional MAC and PHY behaviour, e.g. Point Coordination Function, FH, DSSS, and ERP.

Vision/Outcome
Use the OFDM PHY with 5-, 10- and 20-MHz channel widths, and extend DFS to operate with other primary band users, to specify the basis for a system that the FCC can approve for operation in the US MHz band.

Proposal of 06/1023r0
The way forward for TGy
Clause 17 OFDM PHY, TPC and DFS procedures, use a non-overlapping channel plan, improve CCA for coexistence, use 5-, 10-, 20-MHz channel widths, and Regulatory Class/Coverage Class for outdoor operation

Recirculation ballot Negative vote comments
IEEE-SA Standards Board Operations Manual  
Do Not Approve (Negative with comment). This vote must be accompanied by one or more specific objections with proposed resolution in sufficient detail in a legible form so that the specific wording of the changes that will cause the negative voter to change his or her vote to "approve" can readily be determined. The Sponsor shall encourage the submission of comments with all negative ballots. If a negative vote unaccompanied by comments, or a negative vote accompanied by comments not related to the proposal under consideration, is received despite these instructions, the vote shall be counted in the total tally of votes as a "negative without comment."
Any comments that are explicitly identified not to be part of the negative vote shall be treated as Approve (Affirmative) comments, and action on such comments is left to the discretion of the Sponsor.
