Wireless Medium Access Control (MAC) and Physical
Layer (PHY) specifications for Wireless Personal
Area Networks (WPAN)

• Scope Incorporates the changes between
  802-15-1-2002 (Bluetooth specification 1.1) and
  Bluetooth Specification 1.2 into 802-15-1-2002.
  The scope of the original project was To define
  PHY and MAC specifications for wireless
  connectivity with fixed, portable and moving
  devices within or entering a Personal Operating
  Space (POS). A goal of the WPAN Group will be to
  achieve a level of interoperability which could
  allow the transfer of data between a WPAN device
  and an 802.11 device. A Personal Operating Space
  (POS) is the space about a person or object that
  typically extends up to 10 meters in all
  directions and envelops the person whether
  stationary or in motion. The proposed WPAN
  Standard will be developed to ensure coexistence
  with all 802.11 Networks.
• Project purpose Incorporates editorial changes,
  the errata from 802-15-1-2002 (Bluetooth spec
  1.1), the functional changes between
  802-15-1-2002 (Bluetooth1.1) and Bluetooth
  specification 1.2 into 802-15-1-2002.
  Specifically these include Format (new volume
  structure, cleaner formatting) Fixes (Errata

  (nomenclature IEEE)) Features (Architectural
  Overview, Faster Connections, Adaptive Frequency
  Hopping for improved coexistence, Extended SCO,

15.3 Wireless Medium Access Control (MAC) and

Wireless Personal Area Networks (WPAN) Standard
for a Next Generation Service Overlay Network

• Scope Defines the PHY and MAC specifications for
  high data rate wireless connectivity with fixed,
  portable and moving devices within or entering a
  Personal Operating Space (POS). A goal of the
  WPAN-HR (High Rate) Task Group is to achieve a
  level of interoperability or coexistence with
  other 802.15 Task Groups. It is also the intent
  to work toward a level of coexistence with other
  wireless devices in conjunction with Coexistence
  Task Groups such as 802.15.2.
• Purpose Provides a standard for low complexity,
  low cost, low power consumption (comparable to
  the goals of 802.15.1) and high data rate
  wireless connectivity among devices within or
  entering the Personal Operating Space (POS). The
  data rate will be high enough, 20 Mbps or more,
  to satisfy a set of consumer multimedia industry
  needs for WPAN communications. Also addresses the
  Quality of Service capabilities required to
  support multimedia data types.

Wireless Medium Access Control (MAC) and Physical
Layer (PHY) Specifications for Low Rate Wireless
Personal Area Networks (WPANs)

• Scope Produces specific enhancements and
  corrections to IEEE Std 802.15.4, all of which
  will be backwards compatible with IEEE Std
  802.15.4-2003. These enhancements and corrections
  include resolving ambiguities, reducing
  unnecessary complexity, increasing flexibility in
  security key usage, considerations for newly
  available frequency allocations, and others.
  Defines the physical layer (PHY) and medium
  access control (MAC) sublayer specifications for
  low-data-rate wireless connectivity with fixed,
  portable, and moving devices with no battery or
  very limited battery consumption requirements
  typically operating in the personal operating
  space (POS) of 10 m. It is foreseen that,
  depending on the application, a longer range at a
  lower data rate may be an acceptable tradeoff. It
  is the intent of this revision to work toward a
  level of coexistence with other wireless devices
  in conjunction with Coexistence Task Groups, such
  as IEEE 802.15.2 and IEEE 802.11/ETSI-BRAN/MMAC
  5GSG.
• Purpose Extends the market applicability of IEEE
  Std 802.15.4 and to remove ambiguities in the
  standard. Implementations of the 2003 edition of
  this standard have revealed potential areas of
  improvements. Additional frequency bands are
  being made available in various countries that
  are attractive for this application space.

NGNGeneralIEEE P1903
Draft Standard for a Next Generation Service
Overlay Network

• Scope Describes a framework of Internet
  Protocol(IP)-based service overlay networks and
  specifies context-aware, (e.g., such as required
  Quality of Service(QoS) level, type of service
  such as real-time vs. data, nature of data stream
  such as I-frame vs. B-frame, and type of terminal
  such as TV monitor vs. Personal Digital
  Assistant) dynamically adaptive (e.g., using
  locally derived information to discover,
  organize, and maintain traffic flows in the
  network within a local area network), and
  self-organizing networking capabilities (e.g.,
  developing network structures based on the needs
  of the customers and the capabilities of existing
  network structures), including advanced routing
  and forwarding schemes, and that are independent
  of underlying transport networks.
• Purpose To enable network operators,
  service/content providers, and end-users to
  provide and consume collaborative services by the
  deployment of context-aware, dynamically
  adaptive, and self-organizing networking
  capabilities.

Broadband Over Powerline IEEE P1901Existing
Powerlines
Draft Standard for Broadband over Power Line
Networks Medium Access Control and Physical
Layer Specifications

• Scope The project will develop a standard for
  high speed (gt100 Mbps at the physical layer)
  communication devices via alternating current
  electric power lines, so called Broadband over
  Power Line (BPL) devices. The standard will use
  transmission frequencies below 100 MHz. This
  standard will be usable by all classes of BPL
  devices, including BPL devices used for the
  first-mile/last-mile connection (lt1500m to the
  premise) to broadband services as well as BPL
  devices used in buildings for LANs and other data
  distribution (lt100m between devices). This
  standard will focus on the balanced and efficient
  use of the power line communications channel by
  all classes of BPL devices, defining detailed
  mechanisms for coexistence and interoperability
  between different BPL devices, and ensuring that
  desired bandwidth and quality of service may be
  delivered. The standard will address the
  necessary security questions to ensure the
  privacy of communications between users and allow
  the use of BPL for security sensitive services.
  This standard is limited to the physical layer
  and the medium access sub-layer of the data link
  layer, as defined by the International
  Organization for Standardization (ISO) Open
  Systems Interconnection (OSI) Basic Reference
  Model. The effort will begin with an architecture
  investigation, and this will form the basis for
  detailed scope of task groups that will work
  within P1901 to develop the components of the
  final standard.
• Purpose New modulation techniques offer the
  possibility to use the power lines for high speed
  communications. This new high speed media is
  open, and locally shared by several BPL devices.
  Without an independent, openly defined standard,
  BPL devices serving different applications will
  conflict with one another and provide
  unacceptable service to all parties. The standard
  will provide a minimum implementation subset
  which allows the fair coexistence of the BPL
  devices. The full implementation will provide the
  interoperability among the BPL devices, as well
  as interoperability with other networking
  protocols, such as bridging for seamless
  interconnection via 802.1. It is also the intent
  of this effort to quickly progress towards a
  robust standard so powerline applications may
  begin to impact the marketplace. The standard
  will also comply with EMC limits set by national
  regulators, so as to ensure successful
  coexsitence with wireless and telecommunications
  systems.
