IEEE 802.15 is a working group defined by the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) that develops standards for Wireless Personal Area Networks (WPANs). WPANs are short-range wireless networks designed for communication between devices such as smartphones, laptops, sensors, and wearable devices within a relatively small area, typically within 10 meters. These standards aim

The IEEE 802.16 standard, commonly known as WiMAX (Worldwide Interoperability for Microwave Access), is a set of standards developed by the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) to provide wireless broadband access over long distances. WiMAX is designed to deliver high-speed internet access to fixed, portable, and mobile devices, making it a key technology

IEEE 802.20, also known as the Mobile Broadband Wireless Access (MBWA) standard, was developed by the IEEE to provide high-speed, efficient wireless communication systems designed for mobile users. Its primary goal was to offer seamless broadband access with high data rates, low latency, and high mobility support, making it suitable for vehicular and nomadic users. Key

IEEE 802.22 is a standard developed by the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) that defines the specifications for a Wireless Regional Area Network (WRAN). This network is unique because it is designed to operate in TV white spaces, underutilized portions of the radio frequency (RF) spectrum previously allocated to television broadcasting services. The
