IEEE Standards documents are developed within the IEEE Societies and the Standards Coordinating Committees of the
IEEE Standards Association (IEEE-SA) Standards Board. The IEEE develops its standards through a consensus
development process, approved by the American National Standards Institute, which brings together volunteers
representing varied viewpoints and interests to achieve the final product. Volunteers are not necessarily members of the
Institute and serve without compensation. While the IEEE administers the process and establishes rules to promote fairness
in the consensus development process, the IEEE does not independently evaluate, test, or verify the accuracy of any of the
information contained in its standards.
Use of an IEEE Standard is wholly voluntary. The IEEE disclaims liability for any personal injury, property or other
damage, of any nature whatsoever, whether special, indirect, consequential, or compensatory, directly or indirectly resulting
from the publication, use of, or reliance upon this, or any other IEEE Standard document.
The IEEE does not warrant or represent the accuracy or content of the material contained herein, and expressly disclaims
any express or implied warranty, including any implied warranty of merchantability or fitness for a specific purpose, or that
the use of the material contained herein is free from patent infringement. IEEE Standards documents are supplied “AS IS.”
The existence of an IEEE Standard does not imply that there are no other ways to produce, test, measure, purchase, market,
or provide other goods and services related to the scope of the IEEE Standard. Furthermore, the viewpoint expressed at the
time a standard is approved and issued is subject to change brought about through developments in the state of the art and
comments received from users of the standard. Every IEEE Standard is subjected to review at least every five years for
revision or reaffirmation. When a document is more than five years old and has not been reaffirmed, it is reasonable to
conclude that its contents, although still of some value, do not wholly reflect the present state of the art. Users are cautioned
to check to determine that they have the latest edition of any IEEE Standard.
In publishing and making this document available, the IEEE is not suggesting or rendering professional or other services
for, or on behalf of, any person or entity. Nor is the IEEE undertaking to perform any duty owed by any other person or
entity to another. Any person utilizing this, and any other IEEE Standards document, should rely upon the advice of a
competent professional in determining the exercise of reasonable care in any given circumstances.
Interpretations: Occasionally questions may arise regarding the meaning of portions of standards as they relate to specific
applications. When the need for interpretations is brought to the attention of IEEE, the Institute will initiate action to prepare
appropriate responses. Since IEEE Standards represent a consensus of concerned interests, it is important to ensure that any
interpretation has also received the concurrence of a balance of interests. For this reason, IEEE and the members of its
societies and Standards Coordinating Committees are not able to provide an instant response to interpretation requests
except in those cases where the matter has previously received formal consideration.
Comments for revision of IEEE Standards are welcome from any interested party, regardless of membership affiliation with
IEEE. Suggestions for changes in documents should be in the form of a proposed change of text, together with appropriate
supporting comments. Comments on standards and requests for interpretations should be addressed to:

Note: Attention is called to the possibility that implementation of this standard may require use of
subject matter covered by patent rights. By publication of this standard, no position is taken with
respect to the existence or validity of any patent rights in connection therewith. The IEEE shall
not be responsible for identifying patents for which a license may be required by an IEEE
standard or for conducting inquiries into the legal validity or scope of those patents that are
brought to its attention.

Introduction
(This introduction is not part of IEEE Std 802.15.4-2003, IEEE Standard for Information technology—
Telecommunications and information exchange between systems—Local and metropolitan area networks—Specific
requirements—Part 15.4: Wireless LAN Medium Access Control (MAC) and Physical Layer (PHY) Specifications for
Low-Rate Wireless Personal Area Networks (LR-WPANS).)
IEEE Std 802.15.4-2003
This standard defines the protocol and interconnection of devices via radio communication in a personal
area network (PAN). The standard uses carrier sense multiple access with a collision avoidance medium
access mechanism and supports star as well as peer-to-peer topologies. The media access is contention
based; however, using the optional superframe structure, time slots can be allocated by the PAN coordinator
to devices with time critical data. Connectivity to higher performance networks is provided through a PAN
coordinator.
This standard specifies two PHYs: an 868/915 MHz direct sequence spread spectrum (DSSS) PHY and
a 2450 MHz DSSS PHY. The 2450 MHz PHY supports an over-the-air data rate of 250 kb/s, and the
868/915 MHz PHY supports over-the-air data rates of 20 kb/s and 40 kb/s. The PHY chosen depends
on local regulations and user preference.
This standard contains state-of-the-art material. The area covered by this standard is undergoing evolution.
Revisions are anticipated to this standard within the next few years to clarify existing material, to correct
possible errors, and to incorporate new related material. Details on the contents of this standard are provided
on the following pages. Information on the current revision state of this and other IEEE 802
