9. May 2005 Abbie Mathew, NewLANS Slide 9 IEEE 802.15-05/299r0 Submission Channel Plan  1 Gbps capacity per channel mandatory => 12 Gbps aggregate  ‘N’ adjoining channels can be concatenated for delivering a N Gbps channel  Coexistence of multiple piconets can occur in alternate channels  Advantage => flexibility to increase data rate in the future

10. May 2005 Abbie Mathew, NewLANS Slide 10 IEEE 802.15-05/299r0 Submission Example of Channel Concatenation  Above is an example of concatenating two adjacent channels  2 Gbps capacity per channel => 12 Gbps aggregate
