This standard defines a physical layer (PHY) and medium access control (MAC) sublayer using light wave-lengths from 10 000 nm to 190 nm in optically transparent media for optical wireless communications (OWC). The standard is capable of delivering data rates up to 2.192 Gb/s at distances in the range of 200 m unrestricted line-of-sight. It is designed for point-to-point and point-to-multipoint communications and adaptation to varying channel conditions. The purpose of this standard is to define OWC specifications in optically transparent media enabling high data rate transfer among end points at data rates up to 2.192 Gb/s and ranges up to 200 m unrestricted line-of-sight and that are capable of meeting the needs of industrial and similar classes of applications requiring secure, high performance, high data rate communications that are very robust, have low latency, and are not interfering with existing radio-frequency (RF) systems. New IEEE Standard - Active. The protocol and compatible network equipment for optical wireless communications and its operation as an optical wireless personal area network (OWPAN), supporting data rates of multiple Gbit/s for wireless specialty applications, are defined in this standard. A medium access control (MAC) sublayer, supporting scheduled and polled medium access, as well as two physical layers (PHYs), enabling low complexity, low power, and high throughput are included.
