Range of TG Options
Amendment to LR-WPAN
New PHY
MAC enhancements related to PHY
Coordination with TG4e for other MAC enhancements
New standard in (Neighborly WPAN?)
New NBFH PHY
New MAC
New WG for NAN
Obviously new everything

7. Pro/Con of Options Amendment to 802.15.4 LR-WPAN
8 July 2008
Pro/Con of Options
Amendment to LR-WPAN
Most expedient (maybe)
Leverages existing 15.4 inertia and synergies (ZigBee, ISA100)
Most constrained approach
May not satisfy all the NAN requirements
Rolfe

8. Pro/Con of Options New standard in 802.15
8 July 2008
Pro/Con of Options
New standard in
More flexible technical approach (more options)
May get technically more ideal solution
Avoids conflicts with legacy 15.4
Avoids bloating
May take longer
Rolfe

9. Pro/Con of Options New WG for NAN
8 July 2008
Pro/Con of Options
New WG for NAN
Obviously new everything, most flexibility
Probably take much longer (but who knows?)
Up to EC to decide
Rolfe
