`
`5. I make this declaration based on my personal knowledge, information contained in
`the business records of IEEE, or confirmation with other responsible IEEE personnel
`with such knowledge.
`
`6. The documents below, attached as Exhibits A - B, are stored on the publicly
`accessible IEEE 802 LAN/MAN Standards Committee website (http://ieee802.org/).
`
`A. 3rd Liaison Report- PowerPoint presentation, located at:
`http://www.ieee802.org/l 1 /Documents/DocumentArchives/1998 docs/,
`was uploaded to the IEEE 802 LAN/MAN Standards Committee website
`on November 5, 1998.
`
`B. HomeRF: Bringing Wireless Connectivity Home; J. Lansford, located at:
`http://www.ieee802.org,O 1 /Documents/DocumentArchives/1999 docs/,
`was uploaded to the IEEE 802 LAN/MAN Standards Committee website
`on March 18, 1999.
`
`7. I obtained copies of Exhibits A - B through the IEEE 802 LAN/MAN Standards
`Committee website where they are maintained in the ordinary course of IEEE's
`business. Exhibits A - Bare true and conect copies of the Exhibits as they existed on
`or about February 21, 2019.
`
`8. The upload dates for Exhibits A - B are maintained on the IEEE 802 LAN/MAN
`Standards Committee website index pages. Copies of the applicable index pages are
`attached as Exhibits C - D. Exhibits C - Dare true and correct copies of the Exhibits
`as they existed on or about March 8, 2019.

`SubmissionPHY Features•Nominal 100 mW transmit power (+16 to +20 dBm)•Minimum receiver sensitivity of -76 dBm (2FSK)–4 dB easier than IEEE 802.11 FH parameter–Range should exceed 50 m in typical homes & yards–Expect manufacturers (especially cordless telephones) to exceedspecification considerably (-85 dBm) for longer range•Optional lower power mode around 1 mW (0 to +4 dBm)–Range reduced to 10-20 m typically across household walls–Motivated for ultra-portable devices with limited peak current•Exceptionally simple filter requirements - No Adjacent orAlternate channel specification–Move cost out of PHY by taking advantage of MAC–Makes single-chip integration more straightforward

`Why a new protocol?
`
`l It handles voice like DECT or PHS, but...
`uFrequency hopping
`u20 ms frames (better for data)
`uinterleaved up and down links
`uRetransmission (single)
`l It handles data like 802.11, but...
`uRelaxed PHY layer specs to reduce cost
`uBeacons to manage isochronous traffic
`uSimplified protocol (no PCF)
`•IP data at up to 2Mb/s and supports cordless telephony
