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. --------------------------------------------------------------- If you have questions, contact the IEEE-SA Standards Board Patent Committee Administrator at patcom@ieee.org or visit http://standards.ieee.org/about/sasb/patcom/index.html See IEEE-SA Standards Board Operations Manual, clause 5.3.10 and Promoting Competition and Innovation: What You Need to Know about the IEEE Standards Association's Antitrust and Competition Policy for more details.

Contributions are invited to progress the work on this subject.] recommends [1 that the broadband RLAN standards in Table 2 should be used by administrations wishing to implement broadband RLANs (see also Notes 1, 2 and 3). The frequency bands shown in Table 2 are only there for reference and shows the bands that the broadband RLAN standards are capable of operating within. Administrations who wish to implement the RLAN shall utilize the frequency bands identified for RLAN in the ITU Radio Regulations according to Resolution 229. Implementing broadband RLAN standards in any frequency bands not considered in Radio Regulations or studied by ITU-R are not allowed and should be treated under Article 4.4 of RR. 1bis that Table 3 should be used to see the details on the bands that have been made available for RLAN use by Administrations.] IEEE 802.11ax 6GHz frequency range excluded from draft working document Administration inputs to TABLE 3: General technical requirements applicable in certain administrations and/or regions on Japan (5GHz) & CEPT (6GHz) included Characteristics for ATIS RLAN (3GPP.37.213V1640) 5 150 5 925 MHz was added to M.1450 working doc Agreed to send out LS to BWA & RLAN Organizations Agenda Slide 12 Minyoung Park (Intel Corp.)
