RE: stds-802-18 FW: <WPAN> 802.18 input contributions on UWB




David,

The papers have been sent to the wireless WGs both as
an FYI and for review and comment in order for us to
have a better view of how the WGs interpret the material
presented.

802.18 will have to see what feedback we get, as well
as considering what's going on in the ITU-R on UWB,
before determining any course of action.

Because the subject of ITU-R studies to determine the
appropriate protection criteria for RLANs is "on the
table" at the ITU-R, I think it's appropriate to ask
802.11 for inputs in the subject.

This does NOT mean that 802.18 is "anti-UWB," but only
that we are responding to the realities of what is
unfolding in the ITU-R.

Regards,
Carl
