  5. IEEE SA Patent & Copyright Policies; Participant Behavior
    Patent and copyright slides were shown and discussed by the chair. Chair provided an opportunity for participants to identify patent claim(s)/patent application claim(s) and/or the holder of patent claim(s)/patent application claim(s) of which the participant is personally aware and that may be essential for the use of that standard.
    No discussion.
  6. Draft Update/GITHUB Issues/PRs
    Reviewed the “Slow Time Sampling” and waveform description additions to the document since the last meeting.
    It was stated that the goal for the next sections is to get a draft for error statistics out before the next meeting. Geometry parameters may be worked on in the near future as well.
    There was discussion on what are the most challenging GITHUB issues remaining and for which issues the group may need to plan significantly ahead. The group identified polarimetric calibration. It was proposed that the working group may need to identify some external expertise for this section, since the group may not currently have the expertise need in that particular area. There were some proposals for experts in the area for the group to reach out to.
