Millimeter-wave wireless personal area network systems

A millimeter-wave wireless personal network (WPAN) system is designed to provide short-range, high-speed multi-media data services to terminals in rooms or office space. Millimeter-wave ad-hoc wireless access system has been developed by the Yokosuka Research Park (YRP) collaborated group which was organized by NICT Yokosuka Radio Communication Research Center. This system is designed to provide easy connectivity, network flexibility and high transmission data rate suitable for WAPN service. The millimeter-wave ad-hoc system and its technologies, and the other 60-GHz applications are first presented, the millimeter-wave interest (mmWIG), study (SG3c) and task (TG3c) groups which were recently organized and approved within IEEE802.15 are introduced and its activity are presented
