IEEE White Paper

– Active. This white paper is to inform users and IEEE 802 working groups on the applications and requirements for low latency communications. Low latency is challenging to implement in wired or wireless networks. Some wireless applications are located in physical environments over which the operator/owner can exert control in unlicensed and licensed spectrum. However, in many environments, devices are subject to the effects of other wireless communication devices that can disturb their operation. Wired communications are less subject to these effects.
