Advances - IEEE 802.15 and Related Developments
PracTel Inc, Oct 2011
The report is useful for service providers, IT departments of hospitals and other medical organizations, retail operators, vendors, network operators and managers, investors and end users seeking to gain a deeper understanding of new trends in the wireless communications. For systems integrators, the report provides an analysis and assessment of competing products currently available as well as an estimation of the overall opportunities in the coming years.
This Practel report analyzes the current status of several wireless technologies (and related applications and markets) that are united under the IEEE 802.15 umbrella of standards. Another common feature of these technologies is that they are ether still in the development or were standardized only recently.
Particular, the analysis relates to:
1. 802.15.6: Body Area Networks
2. 802.15.4j: Medical Body Area Networks
3. 802.15.4e: WPAN Enhancements
4. 802.15.4k: Low Energy Critical Infrastructure Monitoring
5. 802.15.4g: Smart Utility Networks, and
6. 802.15.7: Visible Light Communications.
The report also addresses the status of self-powered technologies: some of the IEEE standards require maintenance - free networking with nodes both wireless and self-powered.
The report includes a detail analysis of vendors’ portfolios in the related industries.
The report is written for a wide audience of technical and managerial staff involved in the design and implementation of WPANs.
