TG4e PAR Scope of Proposed Standard
The intention of this amendment is to enhance and add functionality to
the 802.15.4-2006 MAC to a) better support the industrial markets
and b) permit compatibility with modifications being proposed within
the Chinese WPAN.
Specifically, the MAC enhancements are limited to:
• TDMA: to provide a) determinism, b) enhanced utilization of
bandwidth
• Channel Hopping: to provide additional robustness in high
interfering environments and enhance coexistence with other
wireless networks
• GTS: to increase its flexibility such as a) supporting peer to peer, b)
the length of the slot, and c) number of slots
• CSMA: to improve throughput and reduce energy consumption
• Security: to add support for additional options such as asymmetrical
keys
• Low latency: to reduce end to end delivery time such as needed for
control applications

Purpose of Proposed Standard
This functionality facilitates Industrial applications
(such as addressed by HART 7 and the
ISA100 proposed standards), and those
enhancements defined by the proposed
Chinese WPAN standard that aren't included
in TG4c. This amendment addresses
coexistence with wireless protocols such as
802.11, 802.15.1, 802.15.3, and 802.15.4.

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.

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.

RFID SG Overview
•
The IEEE 802 LAN/MAN Standards Committee (LMSC) has chartered
the IEEE 802.15 RFID (Radio Frequency Identification) Study Group to
investigate and develop IEEE 802 'Project Authorization Request'
(PAR) and '5 Criteria' documents which define the direction of an IEEE
802 Task Group as it develops a new IEEE 802 wireless standard.
•
The PAR, 5C, and Comment Resolution documents identified below
were submitted to the IEEE 802 Executive Committee during the
November 2008 IEEE 802 Plenary meeting in Dallas, Texas for
consideration toward taking the next step for the 802.15 RFID Study
Group to become an 802.15.4f Task Group for the purpose of beginning
the process of drafting an Active RFID standard.

regarding the RFID Study Group’s PAR and 5C document submittals.
• Utilized our three 2-hour long meeting sessions to draft RFID Study Group
responses back to the 802.11 and 802.3 Working Groups.
• Due to the comments received from 802.11 and 802.3 the RFID SG agreed to
make additions and clarifications to the 802.15.4f PAR and 5C documents for resubmittal.
• The RFID SG unanimously approved submittal of the modified PAR, 5C, and
comment resolution documents to the 802.15 WG for approval.
•The 802.15 WG approved our 802.15.4f PAR, 5C, and Comment Resolution
documents during the mid-week 802.15 plenary meeting.

PARs to NesCom for action in December 2008
– 15.4f amendment-active tag RFID-approved Biggest expressed issue
was whether this fits within the 802 architecture because 15.4 uses 64
bit MAC addresses. In the end this will be addressed as an 802 issue
not a 4f issue.
– 15.4g amendment-smart metering utility networks-approved with the
addition of an upper limit of 1 Mbps on data rate, calling it Smart
