3. Introduction and Context • WFA developed usage models for VHT • https://mentor.ieee.org/802.11/file/07/11-07-2988-04-0000-liaison-from-wi-fi-alliance-to-802-11-regarding-wfa-vht-study-group-consolidation-of-usage-models.ppt • The usage models cover a wide range of environments and applications • VHT SG is developing PARs for both 60 GHz and <6GHz • There was an expressed interest in VHT SG to map the WFA usage models to the appropriate the operating band Eldad Perahia, Intel Corporation

4. <6 GHz capabilities Required throughput Lightly compressed video Compressed video Environment In room or on desk, short range larger area, longer range Dynamically changing LOS/NLOS 60 GHz capabilities Required throughput Uncompressed video Lightly compressed video Compressed video Environment In room or on desk, short range Fixed point-to-point Mostly LOS Assumptions Eldad Perahia, Intel Corporation
