  2. Proposal for a Method of Moving Forward Towards the Goal of a Being a Successful Task Group Pat Kinney, Kinney Consulting LLC

  3. Responsibilities of a SG • Generate a PAR • Project Approval Request • Defines the scope of the project • Complete 802 LMSC 5 criteria • Ensures that new standards in 802 will address new markets, not just another way of doing something Pat Kinney, Kinney Consulting LLC

  4. Scope of Proposed Project (802.15.4) This project will define the PHY and MAC 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 meters. It is foreseen that depending on the application that a longer range at a lower data rate may be an acceptable trade-off. It is the intent of this project to work toward a level of coexistence with other wireless devices in conjunction with Coexistence Task Groups, such as 802.15.2.and 802.11/ETSI-BRAN/MMAC 5GSG. Pat Kinney, Kinney Consulting LLC

  5. Purpose of Proposed Project (802.15.4) To provide a standard for ultra low complexity, ultra low cost, ultra low power consumption and low data rate wireless connectivity among inexpensive devices. The raw data rate will be high enough (maximum of 250kbs) to satisfy a set of simple needs such as interactive toys, but scaleable down to the needs of sensor and automation needs (20kbps or below) for wireless communications. Pat Kinney, Kinney Consulting LLC

  6. Applications beyond 802.15.4 Applications requiring mobility faster than 11 mph, such as: • Tire pressure • Assets in vehicles (in-car communications) • Drive-by • Drop boxes • Drive-by AMR • Toll booths Applications requiring robustness or fewer retransmissions in multipath environments, such as: • Industrial mission-critical • Airplanes • Ships / engine rooms • Gaming • New WINA alliance one example of this need Applications requiring ranging accuracy better than 0.5 meters, such as: • Asset tracking (active RFID) • Personnel tracking • Motion detection • Automatic network installation Pat Kinney, Kinney Consulting LLC

  7. Applications that desire enhanced performance over 802.15.4 Applications desiring extended range, such as: • Meter Reading • Building Automation • And other longer-range applications where repeaters are not practical Pat Kinney, Kinney Consulting LLC

  8. Proposal • New projects (e.g. SGs) in 802.15 need to honor the scope/charter of IEEE 802.15 • SG4a should be complementary, i.e. adding to the market of 802.15.4 • Low cost • Low data rate • Low complexity • Global Pat Kinney, Kinney Consulting LLC

  9. Proposal • SG4a should focus on those significant applications not fully serviced by 15.4 • Mobility • Greater than 11 mph • Robustness • Handling greater interference • Ranging • Reasonable accuracy (.5 meter?) • Extended Range • 5-10 dB additional link margin Pat Kinney, Kinney Consulting LLC
