这是人体（但不限于人类）附近或内部的短距离无线通信标准。它使用现有的工业科学医疗（ISM）频段以及国家医疗和/或监管机构批准的频段。需要支持服务质量（QoS）、极低的功率和高达10 Mbps的数据速率，同时在需要时遵守严格的无干扰准则。本标准考虑了人的存在对便携式天线的影响（因男性、女性、瘦小、体重等不同而有所不同）、将进入人体的比吸收率（SAR）降至最低的辐射模式塑造，以及用户运动导致的特性变化。

This is a standard for short-range, wireless communication in the vicinity of, or inside, a human body (but not limited to humans). It uses existing industrial scientific medical (ISM) bands as well as frequency bands approved by national medical and/or regulatory authorities. Support for quality of service (QoS), extremely low power, and data rates up to 10 Mbps is required while simultaneously complying with strict non-interference guidelines where needed. This standard considers effects on portable antennas due to the presence of a person (varying with male, female, skinny, heavy, etc.), radiation pattern shaping to minimize specific absorption rate (SAR) into the body, and changes in characteristics as a result of the user motions.
