`Abstract: The protocol and compatible interconnection for data communication devices using low-
`data-rate, low-power, and low-complexity short-range radio frequency (RF) transmissions in a wire-
`less personal area network (WPAN) were defined in IEEE Std 802.15.4-2006. In this revision, the
`market applicability of IEEE Std 802.15.4 is extended, the ambiguities in the standard are removed,
`and the improvements learned from implementations of IEEE Std 802.15.4-2006 are included.

`

`IEEE Standards documents are developed within the IEEE Societies and the Standards Coordinating Committees of
`the IEEE Standards Association (IEEE-SA) Standards Board. The IEEE develops its standards through a consensus
`development process, approved by the American National Standards Institute, which brings together volunteers
`representing varied viewpoints and interests to achieve the final product. Volunteers are not necessarily members of the
`Institute and serve without compensation. While the IEEE administers the process and establishes rules to promote
`fairness in the consensus development process, the IEEE does not independently evaluate, test, or verify the accuracy of
`any of the information contained in its standards.
`
`Use of an IEEE Standard is wholly voluntary. The IEEE disclaims liability for any personal injury, property or other
`damage, of any nature whatsoever, whether special, indirect, consequential, or compensatory, directly or indirectly
`resulting from the publication, use of, or reliance upon this, or any other IEEE Standard document.
`
`The IEEE does not warrant or represent the accuracy or content of the material contained herein, and expressly disclaims
`any express or implied warranty, including any implied warranty of merchantability or fitness for a specific purpose, or
`that the use of the material contained herein is free from patent infringement. IEEE Standards documents are supplied
`“AS IS.”
`
`The existence of an IEEE Standard does not imply that there are no other ways to produce, test, measure, purchase,
`market, or provide other goods and services related to the scope of the IEEE Standard. Furthermore, the viewpoint
`expressed at the time a standard is approved and issued is subject to change brought about through developments in the
`state of the art and comments received from users of the standard. Every IEEE Standard is subjected to review at least
`every five years for revision or reaffirmation. When a document is more than five years old and has not been reaffirmed,
`it is reasonable to conclude that its contents, although still of some value, do not wholly reflect the present state of the
`art. Users are cautioned to check to determine that they have the latest edition of any IEEE Standard.
`
`In publishing and making this document available, the IEEE is not suggesting or rendering professional or other services
`for, or on behalf of, any person or entity. Nor is the IEEE undertaking to perform any duty owed by any other person or
`entity to another. Any person utilizing this, and any other IEEE Standards document, should rely upon the advice of a
`competent professional in determining the exercise of reasonable care in any given circumstances.
`
`Interpretations: Occasionally questions may arise regarding the meaning of portions of standards as they relate to
`specific applications. When the need for interpretations is brought to the attention of IEEE, the Institute will initiate
`action to prepare appropriate responses. Since IEEE Standards represent a consensus of concerned interests, it is
`important to ensure that any interpretation has also received the concurrence of a balance of interests. For this reason,
`IEEE and the members of its societies and Standards Coordinating Committees are not able to provide an instant
`response to interpretation requests except in those cases where the matter has previously received formal consideration.
`At lectures, symposia, seminars, or educational courses, an individual presenting information on IEEE standards shall
`make it clear that his or her views should be considered the personal views of that individual rather than the formal
`position, explanation, or interpretation of the IEEE. Comments for revision of IEEE Standards are welcome from any
`interested party, regardless of membership affiliation with IEEE. Suggestions for changes in documents should be in the
`form of a proposed change of text, together with appropriate supporting comments.
`
`Comments on standards and requests for interpretations should be addressed to:

`Introduction
`
`This introduction is not part of IEEE Std 802.15.4-2011, IEEE Standard for Local and metropolitan area
`networks—Part 15.4: Low-Rate Wireless Personal Area Networks (LR-WPANs).
`
`This is the second revision of IEEE Std 802.15.4. From the beginning, the goal of 802.15.4 was to produce
`a standard that enabled very low-cost, low-power communications. The initial standard, IEEE Std 802.15.4-
`2003, defined two optional PHYs, operating in different frequency bands with a very simple, but effective,
`MAC.
`
`In 2006, the standard was revised, adding two more PHY options. The MAC was backward-compatible, but
`it added MAC frames with an increased version number, new security features, and a variety of MAC
`enhancements, including:
`
`— Support for a shared time base with a data time stamping mechanism
`— Support for beacon scheduling
`— Synchronization of broadcast messages in beacon-enabled PANs
`
`In 2007, two new PHYs were added as an amendment, one of which supported accurate ranging. As a part
`of this amendment, MAC capability to support ranging was added.
`
`In 2009, two new PHY amendments were approved, one to provide operation in frequency bands specific in
`China and the other for operation in frequency bands specific to Japan.
`
`The current revision of the standard was created to roll in the previous three amendments into a single
`document. However, IEEE Std 802.15.4 had become very popular, and there were three additional
`amendments, 2 PHY and 1 MAC, in process at that time. It was clear that the original organization of the
`standard was inadequate for the variety of applications, optional PHYs and optional MAC features to which
`the 802.15.4 base standard would be applied.
`
`Thus, the major changes in the current revision are not technical but editorial. The organization of the
`standard was changed so that each PHY now has a separate clause. The MAC clause was split into
`functional description, interface specification, and security specification. In additon, a great deal of
`informative text, including the coexisting annex and regulatory annex, were deleted so that the document
`would focus on only those technical requirements needed for interoperability. The revised organization is
`the consensus decision of a broad group of 802.15 members, including people who were part of the original
`standard as well as individuals developing amendments to the standard for new applications.
`
`The PAR for IEEE Std 802.15.4-2011 was first proposed in July 2010 and was approved in September 2010
`by NesCom. After a total of 10 drafts, 3 working group ballots ,and 4 sponsor ballots, the final standard was
`approved in June 2011, less than one year from start to finish.

`
`Patents
`
`Attention is called to the possibility that implementation of this recommended practice may require use of
`subject matter covered by patent rights. By publication of this recommended practice, no position is taken
`with respect to the existence or validity of any patent rights in connection therewith. The IEEE is not respon-
`sible for identifying Essential Patent Claims for which a license may be required, for conducting inquiries
`into the legal validity or scope of Patents Claims or determining whether any licensing terms or conditions
`provided in connection with submission of a Letter of Assurance, if any, or in any licensing agreements are
`reasonable or non-discriminatory. Users of this recommended practice are expressly advised that determina-
`tion of the validity of any patent rights, and the risk of infringement of such rights, is entirely their own
`responsibility. Further information may be obtained from the IEEE Standards Association.
