5. Other Guidelines for IEEE WG Meetings
December 2014
Other Guidelines for IEEE WG Meetings
All IEEE-SA standards meetings shall be conducted in compliance with all applicable laws, including antitrust and competition laws.
Don’t discuss the interpretation, validity, or essentiality of patents/patent claims.
Don’t discuss specific license rates, terms, or conditions.
Relative costs, including licensing costs of essential patent claims, of different technical approaches may be discussed in standards development meetings.
Technical considerations remain primary focus
Don’t discuss or engage in the fixing of product prices, allocation of customers, or division of sales markets.
Don’t discuss the status or substance of ongoing or threatened litigation.
Don’t be silent if inappropriate topics are discussed … do formally object.
See IEEE-SA Standards Board Operations Manual, clause and “Promoting Competition and Innovation: What You Need to Know about the IEEE Standards Association's Antitrust and Competition Policy” for more details.

December 2014
SC Operating Rules – Tiger Team
Anybody can vote, present, and make motions
This is a tiger team – it is an ad hoc meeting of the Regulatory Standing Committee
Any documents that are generated by this group that are intended for distribution outside of IEEE (e.g., ) must be approved with a 75% majority by the larger Regulatory SC
Voting on documents must occur at an interim or plenary meeting
Only voters may vote on documents to be approved for forwarding to other IEEE 802 working groups
Any submissions to this group must be posted to the IEEE document server (Mentor)
Anyone can view IEEE s and download documents from Mentor:

Background
FCC allocated 75MHz of spectrum in the 5.9GHz band ( MHz) for Dedicated Short Range Communications (DSRC) in October 1999
 In FCC NPRM (13-49), the FCC requested comments on a potential sharing of the DSRC band, to understand if a feasible sharing solution that protects DSRC users could be developed.
DSRC would remain as a primary user of the band
The new band would be designated U-NII-4
802.11ac could be modified to operate in this new UNII-4 band if approved by the FCC
FCC did not specify the framework or etiquette by which band sharing would occur

8. Work to date Objectives of the group Possible work items Final report
December 2014
Work to date
Objectives of the group
   Create a document that describes and quantifies possible coexistence mechanisms between DSRC and extensions of the base standard in the proposed UNII-4 band, if the FCC allows such band sharing in a future R&O.
Possible work items
   > Review of ITS/DSRC field trials
   > Review of work to date on coexistence
> Presentations on use cases
> Presentation of possible coexistence approaches
   > Modeling/simulation of possible coexistence approaches
   > Testing, field trials, and presentation of results from proposed prototype approaches
Final report
> Includes outputs from all work items
> One or more “snapshots” (summary of work to date) will be provided to FCC
* First snapshot from in mid-January sent to FCC after January meeting

DSRC Coexistence Tiger Team Final Report: Straw Poll questions – Jim Lansford (CSR)
Attached to this slide deck
These are just suggestions – can be edited or deleted
Proposal: Build database of everyone who has attended a DSRC Coexistence TT call up to 19 Dec 2014
List will be available for review
Only participants will be able to vote in the straw poll
Straw poll questions will be put in a SurveyMonkey online poll
Response will be recorded by respondent address

12. December 2014
Straw poll question #1
The purpose of this Tiger Team has been to examine issues related to sharing of the 5.9GHz ITS band between DSRC and unlicensed devices, particularly devices. Do you believe that sharing of the band should be allowed?
Yes No
Needs more study
No opinion
Jim Lansford, CSR Technology

13. Straw poll question #2 Regarding the proposal in document 13/994r0
December 2014
Straw poll question #2
Regarding the proposal in document 13/994r0
Do you believe this proposed band sharing technique has merit and, after developing a more complete definition and field testing, should be considered a basis for a band sharing solution?
Yes No
Not enough information
No opinion
Jim Lansford, CSR Technology

14. Straw poll question #3 Regarding the proposal in document 13/1449r2
December 2014
Straw poll question #3
Regarding the proposal in document 13/1449r2
Do you believe this proposed band sharing technique has merit and, after developing a more complete definition and field testing, should be considered a basis for a band sharing solution?
Yes No
Not enough information
No opinion
Jim Lansford, CSR Technology

15. December 2014
Straw poll question #4
Which proposal do you support for further specification development and field testing?
The 13/994r0 proposal
The 13/1449r2 proposal
Neither – I do not support any band sharing
While I support band sharing, I do not believe either approach can form the basis for an acceptable band sharing solution – we need something different
Jim Lansford, CSR Technology

16. December 2014
Straw poll question #5
If it would enhance band sharing, would you support a proposal to move the V2V Safety Channel (currently in Channel 172) to one of the upper channels (180, 182, or 184)?
Yes No
Not enough information
No opinion
Jim Lansford, CSR Technology

17. December 2014
Straw poll question #6
If band sharing is allowed, would you prefer that the upper edge of the U-NII4 band be at GHz (all 75MHz) or GHz (only the lower 45MHz)?
Only lower 45MHz
All 75MHz
No opinion
I do not support band sharing
All 75MHz
Lower 45MHz

18. December 2014
Straw poll question #7
If sharing is only allowed in the lower 45MHz portion of the band ( MHz), should DSRC only use 20MHz channels in that shared portion of the band?
Yes – only 20MHz DSRC channels in the shared band
No – DSRC should use 10MHz channels
No opinion
I do not support band sharing
