Media access control layer specification of second generation HiNoC

Recommendation ITU-T J.1611 specifies functional requirements for a smart home gateway from both the hardware and software point of view to ensure secure interoperability among consumers, businesses and industries by delivering a standardized communications platform and allowing devices to communicate across operating systems, service providers, transport technologies or ecosystems. In a smart home solution, a gateway is incorporated to connect various appliances. In addition, a connection management platform based on the Internet of things (IoT) is required to enable various applications. These applicable solutions include home health, entertainment, security and home automation, which promote a safer, happier, as well as a more comfortable and convenient lifestyle.
