Re: Information of PER for shared antenna?
Thanks Steve,
For reasons not clear now (but clear then) I was specifically not
allowed to be associated with 15.2 by my employer, and I never went back
and studied it later. I'll check it out.
I suspect the AWMA is a bank-switch signaling mechanism, which I think
is already being used. I'll verify, but what I believe is being asked
is being asked is any data/analysis on induced errors because of
proximity of another transmitter.
As far as Bluetooth and 11n are concerned, it may well be that the
Bluetooth SIG as an organization is not interested in the interaction
with 11n, but some of the members definitely are. I will see what
interest I can generate from Cambridge about participation in the analysis.
