6. doc.: IEEE 802.11-10/0517r2 Submission Participants, Patents, and Duty to Inform All participants in this meeting have certain obligations under the IEEE-SA Patent Policy. Participants: l “Shall inform the IEEE (or cause the IEEE to be informed)” of the identity of each “holder of any potential Essential Patent Claims of which they are personally aware” if the claims are owned or controlled by the participant or the entity the participant is from, employed by, or otherwise represents l “Personal awareness” means that the participant “is personally aware that the holder may have a potential Essential Patent Claim,” even if the participant is not personally aware of the specific patents or patent claims l “Should inform the IEEE (or cause the IEEE to be informed)” of the identity of “any other holders of such potential Essential Patent Claims” (that is, third parties that are not affiliated with the participant, with the participant’s employer, or with anyone else that the participant is from or otherwise represents) l The above does not apply if the patent claim is already the subject of an Accepted Letter of Assurance that applies to the proposed standard(s) under consideration by this group Quoted text excerpted from IEEE-SA Standards Board Bylaws subclause 6.2 l Early identification of holders of potential Essential Patent Claims is strongly encouraged l No duty to perform a patent search February 2010 Slide 6Rich Kennedy, Research In Motion

10. doc.: IEEE 802.11-10/0517r2 Submission PAR Scope and Purpose PAR Scope: An amendment that defines modifications to both the 802.11 physical layers (PHY) and the 802.11 Medium Access Control Layer (MAC), to meet the legal requirements for channel access and coexistence in the TV White Space PAR Purpose: The purpose of this amendment is to allow 802.11 wireless networks to be used in the TV white space February 2010 Slide 10Rich Kennedy, Research In Motion

11. doc.: IEEE 802.11-10/0517r2 Submission Purpose, Principles and Vision/Outcome “If you don't know where you are going, you might wind up someplace else.”* 11-06-0056-00-0000-cbp-and-david-allens-methods http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Getting_Things_Done Purpose: the Task Group should create an amendment whose implementation in solutions is likely to receive FCC approval for operation in the TV White Spaces under the 47 CFR Part 15 subpart H 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 802.11af. –There is no need for backwards compatibility with 2.45 GHz ISM operation. –The starting point is changes to Clauses 17 and 20 and Annexes I and J Vision/Outcome: Use the OFDM PHYs with 5-, 10- and 20-MHz channel widths to specify the basis for a system that the regulators can approve for operation in the TVWS bands. * Yogi Berra February 2010 Rich Kennedy, Research In MotionSlide 11
