September SummaryGood news• 32 presentations completed• Because the presentations did not fill every available meeting

minute there was adequate time to caucus and, at least tentatively, explore possible mergers which would result in new completes or revised completes.

Bad News• Complete presentations did not have adequate time to present

or answer audience questions.• Not enough time to conduct panel discussion or additional

selection steps.• Not known how many completes will exist in November

My Comments: Interesting points:• Well run• Partial proposals are ~ irrelevant – 2 ½ camps• 802.15.3 was presented by Allen as an

independent proposal• Many techniques included data aggregation• Many techniques included increasing band to 40

MHz. • Working with .11, .15 and .19 leadership to make

sure .15 has some say as to how channels are bonded and how coexistence is optimized – more later.

• Heard that up to 680 Mbps was proposed
