Summary
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 non-
interference 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.
