1- Attendance: Patrick Pirat (France Telecom) Scott Blue (Electric Wireless) Carlos Cordeiro (Philips) Steve Kuffner (Motorola) Dave Silk (Motorola) Peter Murray (Motorola) Bill Rose (WJR Consulting Inc.) Carl Stevenson (WK3C Wireless LLC) Winston Caldwell (Fox) Carlos Cordiero (Phillips) Ramon Khalona (Nextwave) Gary Matthews (Outland Wireless) Wen Gao (Thomson) Baowei Ji (Samsung) Kelly Williams (NAB) Gerry Kalke (CBS) Wendong Hu (Microelectronics)

2- Review of the Functional Requirements document Carl Stevenson indicated that the meeting would start using rev 36 reviewing new text in the PAR summary in section 3. Editing CPE’s to CPEs throughout the document. The document was then reviewed through all the sections where changes have been accepted.

In section 15.1.1.3 wording was added for requirements relating to PLMRS adjacent to channel 14.

In section 15.1.4 Response time:

Discussion on proposed times to complete the DFS Parameter Values: Value for TV Broadcasting There will be off line thoughts on these times.

The definitions were reviewed and accepted as shown in rev 37 of the WRAN doc.

A definition as provided by the FCC for Dynamic Frequency Selection (DFS) will be researched by Scott and forwarded to Carl and the group. It will be added into this section.

( Dynamic Frequency Selection (DFS) – the ability to sense signals from other nearby transmitters in an effort to choose an optimum operating environment )

Sections 15.1.7 – 15 – 5 were not reviewed as it was considered that Gerald should be present for this discussion.

Members are asked to review sections from from DFS through to the Appendix D Channel Modeling before the next conference call.
