User Streams Layers (01h-0Fh)

OSI: Transport Layer

Keywords: general purpose streaming, proprietary data, video, audio, sensors, internet of things, embedded systems, sensor networks

Scope

The scope of this project is to define the Isotropic Sensor Network User layers for broadcast and peer to peer connection in distributed sensor area network, wired or wireless, low and high data rate devices, battery powered devices, short-range devices with short operational space, low-cost devices to support trivial sensors, besides the fully featured devices.

Purpose

The purpose of this specifications is to provide a standard for low complexity, low cost, and low power (aware) consumption devices (sensors) to encapsulate user kind of protocols for purpose of streaming audio, video and other proprietary data.
