The IEEE medium access control (MAC) and Physical Layer (PHY) specifications for wireless

personal area networks (WPANs). Bluetooth is formalized in 802.15.1 (2002). 802.15.4 is the specification for a low-data-rate WPAN comprising devices of very low complexity transmitting at very low power levels and very long battery life. ZigBee is based on 802.15.4. See also Bluetooth, MAC, PAN, and ZigBee.
