Description

IEEE 802.15.4j – IEEE Standard for Local and metropolitan area networks – Part 15.4: Low-Rate Wireless Personal Area Networks (LR-WPANs) Amendment 4: Alternative Physical Layer Extension to Support Medical Body Area Network (MBAN) Services Operating in the 2360 MHz ¿¿¿ 2400 MHz Band

Amendment Standard – Superseded.In this amendment to IEEE Std 802.15.4TM-2011, a physical layer for IEEE 802.15.4 inthe 2360 MHz to 2400 MHz band which complies with Federal Communications Commission (FCC)MBAN rules is defined. Modifications to the MAC needed to support this new physical layer are alsodefined in this amendment.
