802.15 WPAN
• 802.15 is still branded as a “Wireless Personal Area Network”, unreasonably limiting and archaic
• It’s time for the “P” to go (or change)• 15 years ago, there was only 15.1 (Bluetooth)
– “Personal” made sense• Then, 15.4 took off, and found itself in spaces
better thought of as machine-to-machine• Then a bunch of other 15.x started, many of which
are “personal” agnostic

Submission
802.15.4g PAR Excerpt
• Principally outdoor communications• Provide a global standard that facilitates very
large scale process control applications such as the utility smart-grid network
• Supports large, geographically diverse networks with minimal infrastructure
• Smart Metering Utility Networks can potentially contain millions of fixed endpoints.

Submission
802.15.4k PAR Excerpt
• Propagation path loss of at least 120 dB• >1000 endpoints per mains powered infrastructure• Point to multi-thousands of points communications
for critical infrastructure monitoring devices• Address monitoring and management needs of
Critical Infrastructure applications such as water, transportation, security, bridges
• Enable preventative maintenance, safety, reliability and cost reduction through operational efficiency

802.15.4m PAR Excerpt
• Enables operation in the available TV band white spaces, supporting typical data rates in the 40 kbits per second to 2000 kbits per second range
• Many instances in large area device command and control applications where infrastructure requirements need to be minimized for effective deployment
• Communication device manufacturers and users, Utility service providers, Infrastructure operators, Device component suppliers, Industrial Automation providers, Building Automation providers, Intelligent Traffic System Providers, Large Scale Monitoring for Safety providers

IEEE 802.15 Isn’t So Personal
• It’s machine-to-machine (where the future lies)• Low energy (valuable for a number of amendments)• Low data rate (relative to other 802s) • Used for applications desiring highly robust
communications• Great for peer-to-peer or any form of networking• It IS everyperson’s easy wireless packet radio
standard, extremely flexible, for very large multiplicity of applications

How to Update the Name?
• It is wireless (keep the W)• It is capable of any kind of network (keep the N)• Keep WPAN
– Wireless Packet Area Network• Get rid of WPAN
– Become IEEE 802.15 (with nothing following)• Come up with a new way of describing what it is
that 802.15 is capable of doing
