7. doc.: IEEE 802.15-10-0717-03-004g Submission September, 2010 Slide 7 CID 1466 Comment: At page 68, line 27: What is the meaning of a compliant device in this sentence? Response: Accept in principle Proposed Resolution: Note: a similar terminology has been used in IEEE 802.15.4a- 2007. Change to For the frequency bands 902-928 MHz and 2400-2450 MHz, the MR-O-QPSK PHY supports a co-alternative spreading mode during the PSDU part, called multiplexed direct sequence spread spectrum (MDSSS). For those frequency bands, a compliant device to this PHY shall support at least one of the spreading modes.

20. doc.: IEEE 802.15-10-0717-03-004g Submission September, 2010 Slide 20 CID 1496 Comment: Terms like "maximum ratio" and "FER" are confusing in this context. Minimum ISR is misleading too, see Table 75af. Response: Accept Proposed Resolution: Change to: The interference-to-signal ratio (ISR) is the ratio of the signal power of an interferer relative to the signal power of the desired signal.

22. doc.: IEEE 802.15-10-0717-03-004g Submission September, 2010 Slide 22 CID 1501 Comment: CCA duration exceeds 20 symbol time which means slotted CSMA will not work in this PHY. Response: Reject Explanation: There is no symbol time defined for the MR-O-QPSK PHY, since it is a multi rate PHY with different spreading rates and modes during PSDU. Specified CCA duration (in microseconds) is related to the lowest PSDU data rate, supporting sufficiently reliable Energy Detect (ED) and / or Carrier Sense (CS) performance during any part of the PPDU.
