1394 Trade Association Approves New Wireless Protocol Adaptation 
Layer; "Wireless FireWire" Product Development Set to Move Forward

Also Sets Liaison with WiMedia Alliance to Collaborate on Future 
"Wireless FireWire" Specifications

Dallas, May 10, 2004 -- The 1394 Trade Association today approved the 
new Protocol Adaptation Layer (PAL) for IEEE 1394 over IEEE 802.15.3, 
which enables new "Wireless FireWire" product development that will 
let consumers easily connect wireless electronics components to each 
other and to the wired home entertainment network.

The Trade Association's Board of Directors approved the PAL 
specification developed by its Wireless Working Group, chaired by 
Peter Johansson. The PAL is designed as a standard convergence layer 
between the 802.15.3 MAC and applications developed for wired 1394. 
It builds upon the 1394 infrastructure -- for example, data formats, 
connection management schemes and time synchronization procedures -- 
and takes advantage of the excellent quality of service (QoS) 
available in 802.15.3.

Adaptation of the 1394 infrastructure to 802.15.3 makes possible the 
reuse of existing middleware for audio and video streaming and other 
multimedia applications.
