IEEE 802.15.4 UWB Study Group Findings & Recommendations

This submission presents the findings and recommendations of the UWB Interest Group for IEEE 802.15.4 regarding ultra-low-power and high-resolution location capabilities. It discusses the support for establishing a UWB Study Group for further exploration. The document outlines key activities, email discussions, meeting sessions, tutorials, and recommendations made by Larry Taylor (DTC) and Jason Ellis (GA). It highlights the interest group's growth, Fort Lauderdale meeting sessions, UWB tutorial in Dallas, and the proposed study group leadership structure. The motion to create an 802.15.4 Study Group for developing a new PHY based on UWB technology is also presented.

  2. Activities • 802.15.4 UWB Interest Group • Email Discussion Group • Fort Lauderdale Meeting • UWB Tutorial • Recommendations Larry Taylor (DTC), Jason Ellis (GA)

  3. Interest Group • Interest group started in November 02 • Strong reaction to call for interest • Particular interest in UWB capabilities for ultra-low power and high resolution location • Quickly grew to over 50 subscribers to the email group • Reflector established (finally!) • Current count 122 members Larry Taylor (DTC), Jason Ellis (GA)

  4. Fort Lauderdale Meeting 2 sessions • 1st session followed 802.15.3a meeting • 2nd session at 8am following the social • 125 attendees!! • Presentations on UWB and Location • 26 expressed intent to actively participate in a Study Group Larry Taylor (DTC), Jason Ellis (GA)

  5. UWB Tutorial Dallas – March 03 • Tuesday evening tutorial • 227 attendees (2 sleepers) • Precision Location is key extension • Extension of other capabilities • Scalable data rate • Range • Power consumption (scavenging?) • Regulatory environment evolving but adequate Larry Taylor (DTC), Jason Ellis (GA)

  6. Recommendations 1 of 2 • Sufficient interest to start Study Group • Strong leadership slate identified • Chair: Larry Taylor (Discrete Time) • Vice Chair: Jason Ellis (General Atomics) • Secretary: Marco Naeve (Eaton) • Technical Editor: Jose Gutierrez (Eaton) • Time frame for Study Group • First meeting in May • Estimate 4 IEEE meetings Larry Taylor (DTC), Jason Ellis (GA)

  7. Recommendations 2 of 2 • Expected output from Study Group activities • New applications identified from CFA • High resolution location capability • Ultra-low power • Etc… • Evolutionary requirements captured in technical requirements document • PAR & 5C generated for Task Group Larry Taylor (DTC), Jason Ellis (GA)

  8. Motion to the Working Group Move to create 802.15.4 Study Group ‘a’ for the purpose of generating the PAR & 5C for an alternate PHY based on UWB technology. Mover: Second: For – Against – Abstain – Motion Larry Taylor (DTC), Jason Ellis (GA)
