Abstract Frequency Sharing Rules (FSRs) or frequency etiquettes providing the fair coexistence of the two broadband communication standards ETSI BRAN HiperLAN/2 and the IEEE 802.11a are discussed in this document. Both systems are invented to operate in the license exempt band 5.1 .. 5.8 GHz in Europe and similar U-NII bands in the U.S. and Japan. Both systems focus on high speed WLANs and broadband wireless access with or without connection to a certain core network. Although the standards are mainly designed for conventional packet data transmission without delay constraint, they nevertheless enable, to a certain extent, a guarantee of Quality of Service (QoS). A scenario where both types of standards have to share the same frequencies is of considerable interest also for standardization of the Fixed Wireless Access Networks IEEE 802.16 and HiperACCESS, as these bothstandards are likely to get into the same field of coexistence problems. In this paper, the already upcoming standards for high speed LANs are discussed. Some issues for a better understanding of Frequency Sharing Rules are presented.
