Amended from Unstrung:
Industry demand for a wireless mesh standard looks set to add
yet another specification letter to the 802.11 alphabet soup, according
to the latest edition of Unstrung Insider.
The report, “Wireless Mesh: New Wave Broadband,” notes that work on the new Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc. (IEEE) standard -- dubbed 802.11s -- is now well underway. “A call for proposals was issued in January 2005, and
by the March 2005 deadline, 34 individuals registered their intent to
make a partial or full proposal to the [802.11s] Task Group,” writes
report author, Gabriel Brown.
