Section 6.4 Requirements
6.5 Economic Feasibility
For a project to be authorized, it shall be able to show economic feasibility (so far as can reasonably be estimated), for its intended applications. At a minimum, the proposed project shall show:
a) Known cost factors, reliable data.
b) Reasonable cost for performance.
c) Consideration of installation costs.

5 Criteria Section 6.5: Economic Feasibility
We have text, but doesn’t address all the bullet points needed
We’re a little fuzzy on reasonable costs
All the necessary words are there, they need to be re-organized and slightly emphasized

Proposed Text, part a
Support of the proposed standard will probably require a manufacturer to develop a modified radio, modem and firmware. This is similar in principle to the transition between b and g or between b and a. The cost factors for these transitions are well known and the data for this is well understood.

Proposed Text, part b
The new standard will provide manufacturers the option of supporting higher throughput. In general, the cost factor changes needed to implement the extensions envisioned by the study group are well within the capabilities of existing technology. Competition between manufacturers will ensure that costs remain reasonable.
