PicoLink Concept
•Complementary to WLAN/IEEE 802.11 devices
–some of the WLAN’s areas of performance have been
sacrificed for cost/size/current drain
–reduced range, roaming is not optimum
•Lower complexity than WLAN devices
–reduced RF specifications
–reduced MAC/PHY complexity
–this MAC has similarities to the 802.11 IBSS/adhoc
•Features which do not add recurring costs
–peer to peer with up to 10 nodes per PAN

• Personal Area Network (PAN; Peer-to-Peer)
– Multiple Networks co-habitate (20 or more have been tested, but
this attribute is dependent upon the PHY)
– Up to 10 devices in a single PAN
– Dynamic PAN and device IDs with network initiation
– Network maintained devices coming and going
– Temporary devices and NETWORKS also supported

Network
• Limited Infrastructured Network
– Main device (access point) typically has power at all times (for
fast access)
– Support for up to 10 devices
– Ethernet access points with higher layer protocol

MAC Protocol Criteria
• Transparent to Upper Layer Protocols
• Ease of Use
– Unique 48 bit address
– Simple network join/un-join procedure
– Device registration
Submission

doc.: IEEE 802.15-00/205r1
MAC Protocol Criteria
• Delivered Data Throughput
– For the proposed aggregate rate of 44
Mbps a throughput of 28 Mbps is
anticipated but depends upon the PHY (e.g.
reducing Rx-Tx to 10µS increases throughput to
34 Mbps with 2048 byte frames)
• Fast Response
– Average response time for small packets is
under 5 mS for current 1 Mbps system,
projected to be less at higher data rate
Submission

doc.: IEEE 802.15-00/205r1
MAC Protocol Criteria
• Data Transfer Types
– Asynchronous
• short response times
• CSMA/CA; collision sense/collision avoidance
(very much like 802.11)
– Isochronous (we propose a timebounded
service to provide a level of QoS although CSMA
presents bandwidth limitation for Isochronous
operation
– Mixed traffic load management
Submission

doc.: IEEE 802.15-00/205r1
MAC Protocol Criteria
• Topology
– Minimum number of active connections
• Up to 10 nodes per network
– Ad hoc network
• Fully supported
• Temporal ad-hoc networks are also supported
– Access to portal
• Any node on the network can provide a portal to
another network
• Multiple portals are possible
Submission

doc.: IEEE 802.15-00/205r1
MAC Protocol Criteria
• Reliability
– Master redundancy
• Any node on the network can assume the
master(coordinator) role either by request from
the master or by disappearance of the master
– Loss of connection
• The proposed system does provide a method
for detection and recovering from the loss of a
link
• System has options allowing it to conserve
current drain by allowing periodic searches for
link re-establishment rather than continuous
searches

MAC Protocol Criteria
• Power Management Types
– Sleeping
• Multiple time increments for sleeping are
selectable, e.g. 1,2…beacon periods
– Wakeup
• Schedule service intervals allow the MAC to
adapt to various PHY wakeup times
– Polling
• Beacons are scheduled and allow the nodes to
wakeup listen for any pending messages and
then go back to sleep if there are no messages

MAC Protocol Criteria
• Power Consumption of MAC controller
– Transmit: 20 mA
– Receive:
30 mA
– Sleep:
.3 mA
– Other Power Consumption Features
• programmable search duty cycle during loss of
connect
• Slave to slave links require less energy in a
Peer to Peer topology than a Master/Slave
topology

MAC Protocol Criteria
• Security
– Authentication. Propose a modified Safer
algorithm be used, as in Bluetooth
– Privacy. Propose the use of the
Bluetooth algorithm
• Quality of Service
– Will be a function of environment
congestion

MAC Protocol Criteria
• Cost/Complexity
– Baseband controller
– functionality described for the HR MAC is
estimated to be much less than 6,000 gates
additional to the 802.15.1 MAC (10,000 gates
w/o reuse).
– Code size
– under 32 Kbytes in addition to the 802.15.1
MAC
