Description / Abstract:
This is a standard for short-range, wireless communication in
the vicinity of, or inside, a human body (but not limited to
humans). It uses existing industrial scientific medical (ISM) bands
as well as frequency bands approved by national medical and/or
regulatory authorities. Support for quality of service (QoS),
extremely low power, and data rates up to 10 Mbps is required while
simultaneously complying with strict noninterference guidelines
where needed. This standard considers effects on portable antennas
due to the presence of a person (varying with male, female, skinny,
heavy, etc.), radiation pattern shaping to minimize specific
absorption rate (SAR) into the body, and changes in characteristics
as a result of the user motions.
Purpose
The purpose is to provide an international standard for a short-range (i.e., about human body range), low power, and highly reliable wireless communication for use in close proximity to, or inside, a human body. Data rates, typically up to 10Mbps, can be offered to satisfy an evolutionary set of entertainment and healthcare services. Current personal area networks (PANs) do not meet the medical (proximity to human tissue) and relevant communication regulations for some application environments. They also do not support the combination of reliability, QoS, low power, data rate, and noninterference required to broadly address the breadth of body area network (BAN) applications.
