Re: [802SEC] Friendly reminder - IEEE 802.18 conference call on 8/20, beginning at 11:00 a.m. PDT/14:00 p.m. EDT.

Mike-

I can see from Mr Marcus' apparent concern about several issues in his blog that there is a risk that his concerns may well wander beyond our scope.

(I would STRONGLY suggest that Mr. Marcus edit his blog to correct the several instances of nonsensical words in his text (likely the result of wrong guesses by a spelling corrector) They significantly impact the clarity of his case.)

Interference with fixed stations is, I believe, an appropriate issue for 802.18

Whatever objections people have to devices that take photos of them from a new angle is a socio-legal problem, not a technical nor even techno-social problem.  I believe it is outside the scope of 802.  We are a technical committee.

I think that the legality or appropriateness of jamming is also a socio-legal issue, not a technical one.  I do believe, however, that to either permit or forbid is likely to result in unintended consequences.  802 may be of help in bringing those to light.

Best regards,

Geoff

Dear RR-TAG and EC,

 

A gentle reminder that IEEE 802.18, the Radio Regulatory Technical Advisory Group, will have a virtual meeting tomorrow, August 20^th. The draft agenda Is on 802.18’s Mentor website as 18-14-0056-01,  “RR-TAG Agenda – Teleconference 20 August 2014

 

We will be having a special discussion under “Any other business” led by Mr. Mike Marcus. As some of you know he is concerned about the possibilities connected with commercial/private use of drones. Mr. Marcus’ blog comments can be found at:http://www.marcus-spectrum.com/Blog/files/drones814.html.

 

I am also sure that this meeting will go in to the procedures for these teleconferences in addition to the agenda items of this particular one.

 

Details about joining the conference call are contained in the agenda , DCN 18-14-0046-01, on Slides 3 and 4. A big thank you goes out to Peter Ecclesine of Cisco, for arranging the bridge.

 

Please direct any questions to either myself, or the 802.18 vice chair Rich Kennedy (rkennedy1000@gmail.com) or the 802.18 secretary Jay Holcomb (Jay.Holcomb@itron.com).

 

“See” you there tomorrow.

 

Best regards,

 

Mike
