LRSG PAR
• Define the PHY and MAC 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.
– Interested in trading off lower data rate for longer range such
as 20kb/sec at 50m.
– Raw data rate of up to 200Kb/sec.
– Intend to work toward co-existence.
– May address the location tracking capabilities required to
support uses of smart tags and badges.

LRSG 5 Criteria - Broad Market Potential
• Wide range of examples applications and devices:
– Home Automation, Meter Reading, Medical Monitoring, Precision
Agriculture and Environmental Networks, Industrial Controls, and
Access/Authorization.
– Smart Tags & Badges, Auto Location ID’s, Stick-on and Security
Sensors, Interactive Toys, Human Interface Devices (HIDs),
Portable bar code readers, and Remote controls.
• Expected that with an effective wireless standard, geared to this
class of applications, the market potential is huge.
• Devices need to run on batteries lasting multiple months to
multiple years.
• 20 individuals from 12 companies and two universities
participated in drafting this PAR.

LRSG 5C - Uniqueness
• Permit raw data rate of 200 Kbps or much slower in this class of
WPAN essential for achieving the extremely low power
consumption requirements.
• Provides balanced cost for the LRSG WPAN class of devices.
• Addresses the reduced complexity requirements for the LRSG
WPAN class of devices.
• Optimizes for low cost and low power consumption in a small
form factor.
• Addresses location tracking capabilities which this WPAN class
of devices may support.
