Communications
The Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) has developed a wide range of communication standards that are widely used in the industry. These standards cover various aspects of communication technologies, including wireless communication, networking, and more.
List of IEEE Communication Standards are:
1. IEEE 802 Series (Networking and LAN/MAN Standards)
- IEEE 802.1: Bridging and Network Management (e.g., VLANs, Spanning Tree Protocol).
- IEEE 802.2: Logical Link Control (LLC).
- IEEE 802.3: Ethernet, including various Ethernet standards like 10BASE-T, 100BASE-TX, 1000BASE-T, 10GBASE-T, etc.
- IEEE 802.11: Wireless LAN (Wi-Fi) standards, including 802.11a/b/g/n/ac/ax (Wi-Fi 6).
- IEEE 802.15: Wireless Personal Area Network (WPAN) standards, including Bluetooth (802.15.1) and Zigbee (802.15.4).
- IEEE 802.16: Broadband Wireless Access standards, also known as WiMAX.
