Wireless protocol RuBee to address unique market requirements

RuBee, an on-demand peer-to-peer network protocol is set to create unique market in identification and M2M communications. It's recently got approval seal of IEEE. Its coded as IEEE1902.1 and termed as "Standard for Long Wavelength Wireless Network Protocol".
RuBee can send data packets in both directions by operating at low frequency below 450 KHz and the distance covered is 10 to 50 ft.

The super specialty of this standard is it works in harsh environment to ensure reliability, even in the presence of water and steel. So it's highly suggested for medical and aerospace applications. For RuBee, the presence of steel improves the range. No line of sight issues.

The application markets in need of this technology are, high security government facilities, assets visibility and mission critical tool management in aerospace industries, firearm management and visibility in government armories, livestock management and mobile asset management.

Long battery life is also inherent strength of this protocol; single lithium battery can last for years. The semiconductor device, other associated components and the battery takes very minimal space, all together will get in to a shape of tag.

The actively working companies behind this technology are Seiko Epson and Visible Assets. With its capabilities in producing wireless transceivers for Zigbee, Bluetooth and RFID, Seiko Epson can be soon expected to launch RuBee wireless semiconductor ICs (transceivers) for world markets.

This technology looks very close to RFID, but in reality there are quite a lot of differences otherwise advantages over RFID.
