4	M2M Context, Where does 5.9GHz fit in? Communication media options
5	Characteristics of 5.9GHz DSRC What 5.9GHz DSRC is good for: Small data exchanges (one frame with signature and if needed encryption). Urgent data exchanges (broadcast mode for rapid situation information sharing). Data exchanges from and among rapidly moving vehicles. What 5.9GHz DSRC is not good for: Large file transfers while moving. Voice data. Streaming media. What 5.9GHz DSRC could be better: Improvements to channel management. Addition of session management to better coordinate with other wireless media. While keeping important aspects of the existing scheme: All sessions are initiated by the mobile element. No permanent ID is exposed.

9	Location Reporting Ability “Location at a specific time” is a key data element use by our applications. Performance requirements for this part of a BSM were established for the Safety Pilot Model Deployment. The value shall be at least within 1.5 meters of the actual latitude at an HDOP smaller than 5 under open sky conditions within the 1 sigma absolute error. The accuracy shall be within 1 milliseconds of the actual atomic time (or some other benchmark time) when the positioning data is determined. Model Deployment Safety Device DSRC BSM Communication Minimum Performance Requirements- VSC3 Internal Document, Revision 11, 1/24/2012 Device makers have made significant progress in meeting these requirements.

13	Study Details and Timeline The Middle Class Tax Relief and Job Creation Act of 2012 (P.L. 112-96, Section 6406) opens the possibility of spectrum sharing in the 5850-5925 MHz Band, subject to “a study evaluating known and proposed spectrum-sharing technologies and the risk to Federal users”, conducted by the National Telecommunications and Information Administration (NTIA). “In consultation with DOD and other affected agencies [DOT]” Likely candidates to share the spectrum are unlicensed U-NII devices. NTIA prepared a draft initial response in late August; agency comments provided in early September. Initial Report to Congress expected late October. The response identifies the need for extensive test and analysis starting in October. Results of testing are expected in early 2013.
