1993 FCC Millimeter Wave Communications Working Group Overview (1) • In its First Report and Order and Second Notice of Proposed Rulemaking in ET Docket No. 94-124 (the "First R&O/ Second NPRM"), the Federal Communications Commission (the "Commission") established a general unlicensed band at 59-64 GHz. In order to maximize the effectiveness of the band, the Commission also proposed to permit industry to develop a "spectrum etiquette" to minimize interference in this band and delayed implementation of the rules permitting unlicensed use of the band for one year to give industry time to develop a set of recommendations. Reed Fisher Oki and John Barr Motorola
1993 FCC Millimeter Wave Communications Working Group Overview (2) • Purpose: • was to recommend a set of additional rules for reducing the probability of interference in the 59-64 GHz general unlicensed band. Membership in the group was open to "... entities involved in the research, development, manufacture, sales or distribution of communications products...". Member entities are: Hughes Research Laboratories, Apple Computer, Sun Microsystems, Hewlett-Packard Laboratories, Motorola, Metricom, Rockwell International, and Eaton Division of Cutler Hammer. • No qualified entity which sought to join the Group was denied membership. Reed Fisher Oki and John Barr Motorola

IEEE Overview (1) • The IEEE will publish the Project 802.15.3 approved IEEE Std. • It will be made available for free via Get IEEE 802™ 6 months later. • This standard includes the baseline MAC sublayer and PHY Layer • There is an amendment being developed in TG3a for a Higher Rate Alt PHY. • This motion requests the establishment of a mm Wave High Data Rate Alternate Physical Layer Reed Fisher Oki and John Barr Motorola
IEEE Overview (2) • The TG3a CFP yielded 31 CFIs and two (2) of the CFIs were based mmW • 03/117 TG3a-Motorola-CFP-Presentation-#2 ppt Rasor • 03/118 TG3a-Motorola-CFP-Document-#2 doc Rasor • 03/119 TG3a-Oki-CFP-Presentation ppt Fisher • 03/120 TG3a-Oki-CFP-Document doc Fisher Reed Fisher Oki and John Barr Motorola
Background on IG Request • The WG has discussed mmW as a natural WPAN* and that it would be a natural next step for the TG3. • The candidate Alt PHYs from the TG3a CFP have been down selected and/or withdrawn • These candidates are interested in studying a mm Wave WPAN • Please approve this motion * due to the unique oxygenabsorption properties of the 60 GHz spectrum Reed Fisher Oki and John Barr Motorola
Proposed Interest Group Officers • Chair: Reed Fisher • Vice Chair: ? • Secretary: ? • Technical Editor: ? Reed Fisher Oki and John Barr Motorola
Amendment IG for 802.15.3 • Move to approve the formation of a Interest Group in 802.15 to develop a project for an amendment to IEEE Std 802.15.3-2003 Type: Procedural (50%) moved/second: Heile/ Time: Y/N/A: Reed Fisher Oki and John Barr Motorola
