June 2011 PAR Purpose 802.15.4g To provide a global standard that facilitates very large scale process control applications such as the utility smart-grid network. This amendment supports large, geographically diverse networks with minimal infrastructure. Smart Metering Utility Networks can potentially contain millions of fixed endpoints. The communication range, robustness, and coexistence characteristics required for this class of application have not been met with existing 802 standards 802.15.4k The purpose of this amendment is to facilitate point to multi-thousands of points communications for critical infrastructure monitoring devices. The amendment addresses the application's user needs of minimal network infrastructure, and enables the collection of scheduled and event data from a large number of non-mains powered end points that are widely dispersed, or are in challenging propagation environments. To facilitate low energy operation necessary for multi-year battery life, the amendment minimizes network maintenance traffic and device wake durations. In addition, the amendment addresses the changing propagation and interference environments 802.15 SG4TV The purpose of this amendment is to allow 802.15.4 wireless networks to take advantage of the TV white space spectrum for use in large scale device command and control applications.

5C June 2011 802.15.4g 802.15.4k 802.15 SG4TV Broad Market Potential Compatibility Distinct Identity The 802.11: optimized for high data rates along with support for star network topologies with centralized control. 802.16: optimized for high data rate, point-to-point and point-to-multipoint network topologies, licensed band, TDM The 802.15.4: support frame sizes of 1500 bytes in length and error detection of a two byte CRC 802.15.4g (WNAN) requirements : low data rate (40kbps), unlicensed band, burst and asynchronous upstream traffic, star-topology as well as peer-to-peer IEEE 802.15.4 will not adequately support the low energy critical infrastructure monitoring application requirements The current IEEE 802.16 M2M PAR calls for changes to the MAC, and no substantial change to its PHY. it will not meet the large path loss, minimal infrastructure requirements, and multi-year battery life required by LECIM applications. IEEE 802.22 is intended to provide broadband services to rural subscribers, which does not address the need for multiyear battery life. IEEE 802.11 is designed for higher data rates which limit both range and battery life to less than that required by LECIM applications. There are no other IEEE 802 projects, utilizing unused TV channels, specifically addressing low data rate operation optimized for use in device command and control applications.
