  35. TG4g- PHY Amendment to 15.4 supporting Smart Utility Networks Phil Beecher, Beecher Consulting, Chair Vancouver, BC, Canada March, 2009 Slide 35 Robert F. Heile, ZigBee Alliance

  36. TG4g-SUN PAR Scope This Standard defines an amendment to IEEE 802.15.4. It addresses principally outdoor Low Data Rate Wireless Smart Metering Utility Network requirements. It defines an alternate PHY and only those MAC modifications needed to support its implementation. Specifically, the amendment supports all of the following: Operation in any of the regionally available license exempt frequency bands, such as 700MHz to 1GHz, and the 2.4 GHz band. Data rate of at least 40 kbits per second but not more than 1000 kbits per second Achieve the optimal energy efficient link margin given the environmental conditions encountered in Smart Metering deployments. Principally outdoor communications PHY frame sizes up to a minimum of 1500 octets Simultaneous operation for at least 3 co-located orthogonal networks Connectivity to at least one thousand direct neighbors characteristic of dense urban deployment Provides mechanisms that enable coexistence with other systems in the same band(s) including IEEE 802.11, 802.15 and 802.16 systems Slide 36 Robert F. Heile, ZigBee Alliance

  37. TG4g-SUN PAR Purpose To provide a global standard that facilitates very large scale process control applications such as the utility smart-grid network. This amendment supports large, geographically diverse networks with minimal infrastructure. Smart Metering Utility Networks can potentially contain millions of fixed endpoints. The communication range, robustness, and coexistence characteristics required for this class of application have not been met with existing 802 standards (See explanatory notes in Section 8.1 Doc#15-08-705). Slide 37 Robert F. Heile, ZigBee Alliance

  38. Meeting Goals and Achievements • Hear Presentations • 3 responses to Call for Applications  • 9 responses to Call for Preliminary Proposals  • 4 presentations of Regulatory Considerations  • Review Required Supporting Documentation • PHY Parameters Guidance  • Coexistence Requirements – discussed scenarios, but more work is required on scenarios and metrics • Review Timeline  Slide 38 Robert F. Heile, ZigBee Alliance

  45. IEEE 802.15 TG6 Body Area Network Closing Report 8th Meeting as a Task Group 6 Vancouver, BC March 12, 2009 Slide 45 Robert F. Heile, ZigBee Alliance

  46. Purpose of Proposed Standard (PAR 07-0575) The purpose of the proposed standard it to provide an international standard for a short range (ie about human body range), low power and highly reliable wireless communication for use in close proximity to, or inside, a human body. Data rates, typically up to 10Mbps, will be offered to satisfy an evolutionary set of entertainment and healthcare services. Current PANs do not meet the medical (proximity to human tissue) and relevant communication regulations for some application environments. They also do not support the combination of reliability (QoS), low power, data rate and noninterference required to broadly address the breadth of body area network applications. Slide 46 Robert F. Heile, ZigBee Alliance

  47. Need for the Project (PAR 07-0575) There is a need for a standard optimized for ultra low power devices and operation on, in or around the human body to serve a variety of applications including medical and personal entertainment. Examples of the applications served by the proposed standard are: EEG, ECG, EMG, vital signals monitoring (temperature (wearable thermometer), respiratory, wearable heart rate monitor, wearable pulse oximeter, wearable blood pressure monitor, oxygen, pH value , wearable glucose sensor, implanted glucose sensor, cardiac arrhythmia), wireless capsule endoscope (gastrointestinal), wireless capsule for drug delivery, deep brain stimulator, cortical stimulator (visual neuro-stimulator, audio neuro stimulator, Parkinson’s disease, etc…), remote control of medical devices such as pacemaker, actuators, insulin pump, hearing aid (wearable and implanted), retina implants, disability assistance, such as muscle tension sensing and stimulation, wearable weighing scale, fall detection, aiding sport training. This will include body-centric solutions for future wearable computers. In a similar vein, the same technology can provide effective solutions for personal entertainment as well.The existence of a body area network standard will provide opportunities to expand these product features, better healthcare and well being for the users. It will therefore result in economic opportunity for technology component suppliers and equipment manufacturers. Slide 47 Robert F. Heile, ZigBee Alliance
