IEEE Tech Talk: IEEE 802.15 - Wireless Specialty Networks
The IEEE 802.15 Working Group for Wireless Specialty Networks (WSN) develops a family of standards covering the spectrum from below 1 GHz to the THz range as well as optical spectrum. There are 6 existing standards with ongoing activity and 2 new standards under development, covering a wide range of applications, coverage needs, and industry sectors, which complement 802 standards primarily focused on traditional LAN topologies.
This webinar is ideal for professionals, researchers, and engineers interested in wireless specialty networks.
