The ROLL Working Group was recently chartered by the IETF to define
routing characteristics for low power embedded devices. ROLL would like
to serve the Industrial, Commercial, Home and Urban markets. Pursuant to
this effort, this document defines the functional and cost requirements
for installing integrated facility management systems in commercial
facilities.
The routing requirements for commercial building applications are
presented in this document. Commercial buildings have been fitted with
pneumatic and subsequently electronic communication pathways connecting

sensors to their controllers for over one hundred years. Recent economic
and technical advances in wireless communication allows facilities to
increasingly utilize a wireless solution in lieu of a wired solution;
thereby reducing installation costs yet maintaining highly reliant
communication. Wireless solutions will be adapted from their existing
wired counterparts in many of the building applications including, but
not limited to HVAC, lighting, security, fire, and elevator products.
These devices will be developed to reduce installation costs; while
increasing installation and retrofit flexibility. Sensing devices may be
battery or mains powered. Actuators and area controllers will be mains
powered.
To meet the cost target, these devices must have a total installed cost
below that of the traditional wired alternative; yet maintain reliability
on par with wired devices. The total installed cost includes the
infrastructure, product, installation, commissioning, labor and
operational costs of the device over its 30 year lifespan. Except for
special circumstances such as flexible installation (e.g. airports) or
cosmetics (e.g. museums, there is nothing compelling about installing
wireless solutions inside a building unless it can be accomplished below
the cost of a wired installation. This document will define the
requirements necessary for wireless technology to displace wired
infrastructure and meet this objective.
