Overview

The purpose of TG4n is to define a physical layer for IEEE Std. 802.15.4 utilizing the approved 174-216 MHz, 407-425 MHz and 608-630 MHz medical bands in China. This amendment defines modifications to the Medium Access Control (MAC) layer needed to support this new physical layer. The Ministry of Industry and Information Technology (MIIT) of the People's Republic of China has approved the 174-216 MHz, 407-425 MHz and 608-630 MHz bands for medical information transmission, according to the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology of the People's Republic of China rules doc. # MIIT XBW 2005-423.

Current Status

TG4n received NesCom approval March 30th 2012. The TG4N PAR can be viewed here. TG4n held its first meeting at the 802 Interim meeting in Atlanta May 2012. During this meeting the group agreed to technical requirements and issued a Call for Applications.

A Call for Applications is available here.
