Patent Policy and Procedures: The contributor is familiar with the IEEE 802 Patent Policy and Procedures < ieee802.org/guides/bylaws/sb-bylaws.pdf>, including the statement "IEEE standards may include the known use of patent(s), including patent applications, provided the IEEE receives assurance from the patent holder or applicant with respect to patents essential for compliance with both mandatory and optional portions of the standard." Early disclosure to the Working Group of patent information that might be relevant to the standard is essential to reduce the possibility for delays in the development process and increase the likelihood that the draft publication will be approved for publication. Please notify the Chair as early as possible, in written or electronic form, if patented technology (or technology under patent application) might be incorporated into a draft standard being developed within the IEEE Working Group.

Abstract
This presentation addresses issues regarding Clause of IEEE p. Specifically, questions/comments regarding regulatory issues, EIRP and transmit mask are approached.

3. 20.3.9.1 - Power Requirement/Restrictions
April 2006
Power Requirement/Restrictions
General Issue: Ambiguity in the definition of power levels and EIRP for North American operations
Related Comments: 95, 96, 370, 425, 521, 881, 983, 999, 1090, 1196, 1121, 1293, 1329, 1569, 1669, 2074
Recommended Solutions:
Move pertinent material to Annexes I and J
Remove material that deviates from definitions provided by FCC

4. 20.3.9.2 – WAVE Transmit Masks General Issues:
April 2006
– WAVE Transmit Masks
General Issues:
Ambiguity in defining mask levels and when to apply them
Section is unnecessary as information should be presented in Annexes I and J
Specific Comments: 882, 1091, 1570 and 2075
Recommended Solutions:
Move appropriate material to Annexes I and J
Follow exact model used in Annexes
Paraphrase or refer to appropriate FCC rulings whenever appropriate

5. 20.3.9.2 – Frequency Stability Requirements
April 2006
– Frequency Stability Requirements
Issue: Provide justification for ±10ppm accuracy
Related Comments: 371, 882, 1178, 1179, 1212 and 1997
Recommended Solution:
Provide justification in response to comments
Justification not needed in the standard

6. 20.3.9.2 – Application of Transmit Mask
April 2006
– Application of Transmit Mask
Issue :
WAVE transmit mask definition implies absolute attenuation levels
– Results in notched spectral mask when station power < max
Comment 97
Recommended Solution
Spectrum mask actually defines relative spectral shaping limits
Reword in Section I using “dBr” as defined in P REVma/D5.2 March 2006
