Ok gang... This is the paper that at least touches on as many of
the regulations I could think of that affects 802.11 users. Below
is the title and abstract.
I am looking for comment on the paper. Hence the "RC-1.0" in the
footer. I have already run it by a number of Telecom lawyers and
other "experts" (thanks Dewayne) but am looking for general comment
now. Am I missing anything? Any suggestions on mitigation other
than I outlined? Etc...
You can find the document in PDF and PS form at:
http://www.lns.com/papers/part15/
StarOffice doesn't do a very good HTML translation of the document.
Once I get it into a "release" form, I will convert it to HTML.
Thanks
Tim

Regulations Affecting 802.11 Deployment
By Tim Pozar

Abstract and Objectives
Many companies are jumping onto the wireless bandwagon, trying to
create new "first mile" infrastructure and hoping to link to customers
not yet served or to bypass the current wired solutions. They see
it as a quick and possibly cheaper way of providing high-speed data
to these customers.
All good ideas but most of these companies have little or no clue
about the ramifications of using unlicensed spectrum. My purpose
in writing this is to shed a little light on the law, policy, rules
and regulations and future developments that will impact wireless
deployment.
