This International Standard defines the network specification for devices, which are operated on IEEE Std. 802.15.4-2011 PHY, capable to support the channel-hopped TDMA links of the DSME MAC of IEEE Std. 802.15.4e-2012, to provide low-cost communication network that allows reliable, deterministic-latency, and scalable wireless mesh connectivity.
This International Standard provides the following:
-
— DSME MAC link control;
-
— unbalanced cluster-tree based network formation;
-
— directional multiple grades mesh connection;
-
— link-path routing and data forwarding;
-
— link and link-path maintenance.
