September 2007 doc:IEEE c Slide 2 Submission Bob Heile, Clint Powell, Kuor-Hsin Chang, Phil Beecher, Michael Schmidt (ZigBee Alliance, Freescale, Integration, Atmel) IEEE e – Study Group Purpose To explore the possibility of MAC enhancements to the existing standard and determine if the formation of a Task Troup is needed. If it is determined that a Task Group is needed the Study Group will define the Scope of the Task Group (via a PAR). Focus MAC only.

September 2007 doc:IEEE c Slide 3 Submission Bob Heile, Clint Powell, Kuor-Hsin Chang, Phil Beecher, Michael Schmidt (ZigBee Alliance, Freescale, Integration, Atmel) IEEE c – Task Group Purpose Extend the standard to include the recently opened Chinese Sub-GHz Bands. Focus Define a PHY standard that is compliant with Chinese regulations, limiting MAC changes only to those req’d. by the PHY.

Mapping Data to PN Code –The same mapping is not used for preamble, SFD and data payload Modulation –M-ary PSK and not OQPSK –Non Constant Envelope Increases PA linearity requirement Increases TX DAC and Rx ADC requirement
