Tutorial Objectives
The IEEE Working Group for Wireless Personal Area Networks will initiate their first Working Group Electronic Letter Ballot during the IEEE 802 November 1999 Plenary. This Conference Tutorial has been prepared to assist the Working Group as well as the potential WPAN Sponsor Ballot Pool attendees on the content of the draft standard submission, and the source of the technology. Additionally, we will describe how the IEEE P WPAN technology complements the 802 Family.
Due to the fast track nature of this standards making process the November Conference Tutorial will provide the necessary baseline for the up and coming Working Group and Sponsor Ballot voting.
