doc.: xxxx A Sub-Committee Report September 2004 Martin et alSlide 4 The Search for Guidance PAR -- Purpose [To provide a standard for ultra low complexity, ultra low cost, ultra low power consumption and low data rate wireless connectivity among inexpensive devices. The raw data rate will be high enough (maximum of 200kbs) to satisfy a set of simple needs such as interactive toys, but scaleable down to the needs of sensor and automation needs (10kbps or below) for wireless communications PAR -- Purpose [This project will define the PHY and MAC specifications for low data rate wireless connectivity with fixed, portable and moving devices with no battery or very limited battery consumption requirements typically operating in the Personal Operating Space (POS) of 10 meters … a PAR -- Scope [This project will define an alternative PHY clause for a data communication standard with precision ranging, extended range, enhanced robustness and mobility amendment to standard (18a).]

Rayleigh fading margin vs. desired reliability –10 dB margin gives 90% probability of exceeding desired level –13 dB margin gives 95% probability of exceeding desired level PHY sensitivity spec. (1% PER, 20-byte PSDU) –2.4 GHz PHY: -85 dBm –868/915 MHz PHY: -92 dBm –Typical performance is ~5 dB better than spec.
