Wireless Access including RLANs &
ad-hoc Networking: IEEE 802.15.1
IEEE Standard for Information Technology—Telecommunications and information exchange
Systems between systems—Local and metropolitan area networks—Specific requirements—
- Part 15.1a: 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
from the SIG and IEEE applied, Language cleanup (nomenclature + IEEE));
Features (Architectural Overview, Faster Connections, Adaptive Frequency Hopping
for improved coexistence, Extended SCO, Scatternet / Scattermode / Absence
Masks, Anonymity Mode, L2CAP Flow & Error Control, LMP Improvements / HCI
Improvements); Full Backward Compatibility with 802-15-1-2002 ( Bluetooth
Specificaton 1.1)

Wireless Access including RLANs &
ad-hoc Networking: IEEE 802.15.3
IEEE Standard for Information Technology—Telecommunications and Information Exchange
Between Systems—Local and Metropolitan Area Networks—Specific Requirements—
Part 15.3: Wireless Medium Access Control (MAC) and Physical Layer (PHY) Specifications
for High Rate 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 WPANHR (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 Access including RLANs &
ad-hoc Networking: IEEE 802.15.4
IEEE Standard for Information Technology—Telecommunications and Information Exchange Between
Systems— Local and Metropolitan Area Networks—Specific Requirements—Part 15.4: 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/ETSIBRAN/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.

NGN—General:
IEEE 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. Bframe, 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 selforganizing networking capabilities.

Broadband Over Powerline:
IEEE P1901—Existing 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 (>100 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 (<1500m to the premise) to broadband services as well as BPL devices used in
buildings for LANs and other data distribution (<100m 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.
