Ecma Develops 60 GHz Radio Standard

Ecma International is developing an International Standard for 60 GHz technology for very high data rate short range unlicensed communications aiming at bulk data transfer, high-definition multimedia streaming and wireless personal area networking applications. At its meeting from 30 January to 2 February in Atlanta, Ecma's TC32-TG20 task group reviewed proposal presentations for a complete (PHY+MAC) standard for low power 2 to 10 Gigabit/s data transport. The standard intends to ensure compatibility and interoperability for different usage/application scenarios by defining a common framing structure.

At the Atlanta meeting, ETRI, GEDC (Georgia Tech), Intel, KU (Korea University), Matsushita Electric Industrial (Panasonic), NewLANS, Philips and Samsung Electro-Mechanics, Samsung Electronics reached a major milestone by analysing standard proposals that will give rise to a slew of next generation wireless applications.
