14:00 PMDraft amendment
Chair said that we had to amend the draft to be based on the Japanese regulation.
Preparation for the draft amendment>
Chair said that we had to be able to do the dutycontrol for the Japanese regulation to use the draft. However, the draft must not have the function that can do the dutycontrol. Because, we can do the duty control in high layer. So, we define the mechanism for doing the dutycontrol.
Chair said that the draft did not have to assert how to do the duty control for the Japanese regulation because the draft did not assert how to do the duty control for the EU.
Chair said that we had to discuss regarding the transmitting control for the Japanese regulation.
All attendees agreed it.
<Amendment>
Chair suggested PIB for the duty control that name is phySymbolesTransmittedS.
phySymblesTransmittedS is the counter of transmitted data.
Kuor-Hsin Chang (Freescale) suggested the function have to provide by MIB, because the MAC knows transmit data size and the characters of the PHY layer.
Chair agreed it.
The CCA duration is changing under the Japanese regulation.
So, Chair suggested PIB for the changing of CCA duration that name is phyCCADuration.
All attendees agree it.
Chair suggested adding the sentence regarding the transmission control to the Annex E.3.
All attendees agree it.

13:50 PM Presentation WW-BPSK with AFA provisioning (15-08-0109-02-004d)
Shusaku Shimada (Yokokawa) explained his proposal.
Shusaku Shimada changes the proposal regarding theAFAfrom the last presentation (15-08-0109-01-004d) because the DSSS-BPSK and the GFSK used different channel plan.
Shusaku Shimada dose not add the document regarding the OFDM AFAproposal from the amendment because the technical issues regarding the technologies do not decide now.
So, in the future, if the technical issues will be decided, Shusaku Shimada would like to add the issues in the drafts.
Kuor-Hsin Chang (Freescale)could not agree with the proposal for the AFAbecause the proposal function for AFA can supply without PHY modify. We can supply the function to use MAC functions.
