MANHASSET, N.Y.—In a not-unexpected move, the IEEE has approved a Bluetooth-based standard for wireless personal-area networks (WPANs). The IEEE 802.15.1 standard, which covers the media-access control and physical-layer for WPANs, is fully compatible with the latest Bluetooth v1.1 specification.
The IEEE licensed portions of the new standard from the Bluetooth Special Interest Group, and added a major clause on service access points. The added rules essentially govern how 802.15.1-compliant devices should be designed, and cover some core signaling specifications.
