Project: IEEE P802.15 Working Group for Wireless Personal Area Networks (WPANs)

This presentation summarizes the work done by the study group during the January meeting in Tel Aviv. It captures the activities and discussions of the week, including organizational planning and marketing activities. The goal is to achieve high data rate wireless connectivity within the Personal Operating Space (POS), with interoperability and coexistence with other 802.15 Task Groups and wireless devices.

It was presented during the joint 802.11 and .15 plenary session.] Purpose: [This presentation captures the activities and discussions of the week. Since the main agenda of the meeting was fulfilled so quickly, much of the follow-on work was ad hoc and detailed in 00/002r0.] Notice: This document has been prepared to assist the IEEE P802.15.

  2. IEEE 802.15 HR SG Status • PAR approved by .15 WG • Will be submitted to ExCom for March • PAR = 802.15 - 99/165r4 • 5C = 802.15 - 99/166r2 • Presented differentiation perspective (w/ elevator speech) 00/019r0 • Began organizational and marketing activities in anticipation of TG Status • SG Planning Summary - 802.15 - 00/008r0 (J. Allen) • Organizational structure and Volunteer signup started 00/022r0 (J. Allen) • MRD started (K. Marquess, R. Morris) - 00/007r0

  3. Call for Name (Sensitive to .11 and vagueness) • Started agenda for March (J. Allen) • Morris Presented Marketing needs of HRSG 00/017r0 • CFP/CFA and development of Selection Criteria • Will Include Criteria Document - 802.15 - 00/007r0 • Document to be emailed before 4Feb00 • Will call for interested parties to declare intent by March

  4. High Rate SG Agenda List • Monday • Rename High Rate Discussion • Organizational Proposal • Web Content/Updates • Tuesday • Create MRD • Derive Evaluation Criteria • Call for Applications/Call for Proposals • Friday • Interactive presentation and debate of 5C

  5. Post Meeting & March Actions: • High Rate TG leadership proposal • Cover Letter for PAR • Establish Committee Chairs and Liaisons • Complete March Agenda and Presentation to ExCom • Press Releases • FCC Status presentation to .11 • High Rate SIG role and status • Work with .11MM to share speakers and information

  6. PAR Scope This project will define the PHY and MAC specifications for high data rate (see 13a) wireless connectivity with fixed, portable and moving devices within or entering a Personal Operating Space (POS) (See 13b). A goal of the WPAN-HR (High Rate) Task Group will be to achieve a level of interoperability or coexistence with other 802.15 Task Groups, or an 802.11 device (see 13c). It is also 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.

  7. PAR Purpose To provide a standard for low complexity, low cost, low power consumption, 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 (see 13a), to satisfy a set of multimedia industry needs for WPAN communications. The project will also address the Quality of Service capabilities required to support multimedia data types.

  8. PAR/5C Summary • IS • BlueToothtm Interoperable Goal (implies 2.4 GHz) • Consumer Priced (comparable to BT1.0) • LOW Power • Personal Area Network Range (link controlled by person) • 20+ Mbps • IS NOT • Office/Enterprise LAN • Business/Mission Critical • Long Range • Roaming and Enterprise coverage

  9. Proposal • The purpose of this project is to provide highspeed PHY and MAC enhancement to 802.15 Task Group 1 for applications which involve imaging, multimedia, and networks with more than 8 users in consumer devices. • Bi - Modal PHY • Compatible with 802.15 Task Group 1 • 20+ Mbps Multimedia Capable • MAC • Isochronous • Enhancements to 802.15 Task Group 1 • Not to impede Task Group 1 progress

  10. Broad Market Potential • Today, low bandwidth wireless systems do not satisfy the needs for consumer priced, embedded, high data rate systems. • Applications include: • Digital (Still) Imaging • Multimedia (Video, Voice over IP) • Many-user systems • Kiosk for imaging, MP3, coupons…… • Toys, robots • Support currently includes Motorola, Eastman Kodak, Cisco Systems.

  11. Compatibility • Bi-Modal • The proposal will be backward compatible to the Task Group 1 1Mbps mode using the dual mode PHY layer and MAC. • Is intended to conform to the 802 standards guidelines imposed on 802.15. • Study Group will work with Coexistence Task Group.

  12. Distinct Identity • 20 Mbps High Speed Personal Area Network is not currently recognized as a Standards study group. • 802.11a addresses the speed, but not the requirements of an embeddable consumer oriented WPAN or BT band compatible • 802.11b does not address the speed • 802.15.1 addresses the requirements of an embeddable consumer oriented WPAN, but not the speed.

  13. Technical Feasibility • PHY - A 20 Mbps prototype is operational. • ASIC architecture has passed internal feasibility review • Prototype performance testing has started • MAC - Several enhancements to 802.15 TG1 are being modeled and simulated at the Protocol and Network levels. • Technology is scaleable to higher data rates and 5.8 GHz.

  14. Economical Feasibility • Bill of Materials expected to be consistent with current Task Group 1 estimates. • Current ASIC estimates and discrete bill of materials provide validation.

  15. Process • Discovery phase and public disclosure • Many rumors of new high rate technologies • Many Start-ups outside of standards activity • Focus around “New” class of connectivity • Pugh Selection Process • CFA/CFP • March- call for intent • May, June presentations and evaluation • Consider all proposals • Focus criteria on new “non-WLAN” applications
