New Technologies Breed Innovation• Broad Interoperability Drives New Applications

– 3GPP (worldwide cellular standard)• First 3G specification in 2000, 7 full specification releases since then

– IEEE 802.11• First release in 1997, growth of application space has driven 25

amendments in 14 years– Many others (ZigBee, Wired/Wireless HART, CANbus, Ethernet,

and more)• Impossible to predict future use based on current expectation• Average service life of radio equipment in rail and transit

applications is in excess of 10-15 years• System design may remain in place for 20-25 years• Open forum allows interested parties to vet independently

quality and performance, and to propose to improve• Standards are good for the customer, good for the vendor

IEEE 802 LAN/MAN Standards Committee (LMSC)

• Local Area and Metropolitan Area Networks• 32-year history of creating world’s most successful,

interoperable, networked wired and wireless data standards

• Formal, coordinated, transparent, open and consensus-based process

• Participation is by individual contributor• Six face-to-face meetings per year to allow

sufficient vetting and promote timely development• Voting rights maintained with active participation• Broad international participation• Primarily physical and link layers of network stack
