Research and Markets: A Comprehensive Analysis of Wireless Technologies & Markets That Are under Development by the IEEE 802.15 WGs

DUBLIN--(Business Wire)--
Research and Markets
(http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/946e8d/ieee_802_15_techn) has
announced the addition of the "IEEE 802.15 Technologies and Markets" report to
their offering.

This report addresses technological and marketing features of several
technologies that are being built on the IEEE 802.15 standard. In particular, it
is analyzing:

* The evolving IEEE 802.15.4g standard for Smart Grid ICT
* The evolving IEEE 802.15.6 standard for WBAN
* The working progress in the development of the IEEE 802.15.7 Visual Light
Communications.

It also emphasizes the significance of the self-powered sensors/radios in the
creation of efficient ICTs for WBANs and Smart Grid; and is analyzing the
fast-growing power harvesting industry for sensor application.

All three technologies are united by rules and features of the IEEE 802.15
standard. The main mission of WGs is to conduct preliminary studies towards
establishing IEEE standards on:

* WBAN for supporting medical and healthcare services, as well as non-medical
applications that can also be benefited or supported by WBAN;
* Smart Grid ICT as networking technology to support an enormous set of
consumers and utility companies requirements;
* Visual Light Communications to support communications channels created by
modulation of signals from visible sources of light, mostly radiated by LED
illumination bulbs.

Target Audience:

This report provides the analysis of wireless technologies and markets that are
under development by the IEEE 802.15 WGs. It concentrates on the recent
developmental trends. The report is useful for service providers, IT departments
of hospitals and other medical organizations, retail operators, vendors, network
operators and managers, investors and end users seeking to gain a deeper
understanding of new trends in the wireless communications. For systems
integrators, the report provides an analysis and assessment of competing
products currently available as well as an estimation of the overall
opportunities in the coming years.
