Wi-SUN PHY Modes: Symbol Rate and Modulation Index Explained

wi-sun phy mode symbol rate modulation index ieee 802.15.4

This page describes Wi-SUN PHY Modes covering Symbol rate and Modulation Index used in Wi-SUN Physical Layer. Wi-SUN PHY (Physical layer) specifications use IEEE 802.15.4g, 802.15.4u and 802.15.4v standards.

Following are the features of Wi-SUN IoT technology:

  • Standard: Wi-Sun (802.15.4g)
  • Frequency: ISM < 2.4GHz
  • Bandwidth (Max.): 200 kHz to 1.2 MHz
  • Data rate: 50 kbps to 1 Mbps
  • Modulation: FSK ,OFDM, OQPSK
  • Range: 1000 meters
  • Network: WPAN
  • Applications: FAN and HAN Smart Utility Networks, Smart Grid, Smart Metering
