Among the notable participants in the 1991 workshop were Charlie Bass, the co-founder of Ungermann-Bass and one of the pioneers of the commercial LAN industry; Mike Marcus, Chief engineer of the FCC , who was responsible for release of the first unlicensed bands, energizing the evolution of the WLAN industry; Bruce Tuch, the designer of the first DSSS WLAN, which became the 802.11 standard; Tom Freeburg, designer of Motorola's Altair product operating at 18-19GHz; Vic Hayes, the first chairman of the IEEE 802.11; and Bob Heile, the future founder and the chair of the IEEE 802.15 standardization effort. This workshop was organized and chaired by Prof. Kaveh Pahlavan , who also chaired the second and third IEEE WLAN workshops in 1996 and 2001 [2,3]. The historical trace of a number of wireless LAN innovations and standardization activities can be found in the proceeding of these workshops [1,2,3].
