Present technologies

• We love 802.11
• We look forward to 802.15.4 / ZigBee
• We see areas for Bluetooth
• Today we use proprietary technologies and are
  successful but not happy with all applications
• Do standards cover everything?No that is why I
  am here
• We have applications with RF performance needs
  beyond present level

Tests

• We have done extensively testing on RF
  technologies
• Several narrowband and several frequencies
• Several WLANs
• 802.15.4
• nanoNET
• Have performed the tests in various environments
• Industrial, commercial and residential
• Internally and externally
• Covered most application environments

9
Tests

• Tested different antenna types and placements
• Over 5000 transmission tests build our experience
• Some of you may know that we have established a
  Communication Technology Centre

Test headlines

• Existing technologies function very satisfactory
  for many applications
• There is clearly potential in linear FM as a
  spread spectrum technology
• Our tests show that performance is on the edge
  for high end applications with existing
  standard based technologies

14
What do Danfoss look for?

• Higher range
• Longer battery life / lower power consumption
• Higher robustness against multipath fading
• Coexistence with WLAN and Bluetooth

15
Summary

• Great existing standards
• We have applications that need more range and
  robustness
• We believe there are technologies that can fulfil
  the need
• We invite 802.15 to explore the opportunities
