Submission Slide 1 Bruce Kraem May 2005 doc.: IEEE 802.11-05/0760r0 Plans for July Reuse Agenda for January as a place holder for now

Which in rough outline form will be: Now to July Update technical proposals posted by 10 days prior to July meeting Email questions Single Stream adhoc teleconferences every 2 weeks beginning June 6 In Session July 18-22 Proposal presentations Q&A Elimination vote Submission Slide 2 Bruce Kraem July 2005 doc.: IEEE 802.11-05/0760r0 Motion: Moved: Because the TGn selection process allows proposals to ask for time to complete mergers prior to consideration, M&T&W are granted time to complete a merged Joint Proposal (JP) that will replace the current three remaining TGn proposals. The time line is: July 2005: Provide time this week (ref 5557R0 Bruces opening report) for these groups to go work on this effort. Sept 2005 JP draft will be provided to TGn; Q&A sessions on JP to that time. November 2005: JP replaces current 3 proposals; Confirmation vote on JP. Vote: 195/2/3

Submission Slide 4 Sept plans Utah Presentation Bruce Kraem July 2005 doc.: IEEE 802.11-05/0760r0 Motion on adding FR10 and FR11 Motion: adopt new revision of document 11-03-0813-13-000nfunctional-requirements containing the following changes: addition of FR10 and FR11. FR10: Existence of single spatial stream transmission modes Requirement: Proposal shall define single spatial stream transmission modes that provide at least one mode of operation that supports a maximum throughput of at least 50 Mbps in a 20MHz channel as measured at the MAC data SAP. Microsoft Word Document FR11: Interoperability with single spatial stream non AP stations Requirement: A .11n AP or STA shall interoperate with a single spatial stream entity

defined as a non-AP STA that complies with the .11n proposal with the exception of only supporting single spatial stream transmission modes as required by FR10.
