Full Description

Scope

This standard establishes a normative definition of communication between devices containing a power source (agents) and managers (e.g., cell phones, personal computers, personal health appliances, set-top boxes) in a manner that enables plug-and-play interoperability. Using existing terminology, information profiles, application profile standards, and transport standards as defined in other ISO/IEEE 11073 standards, this standard defines a common core of communication functionality of personal health devices (PHDs) containing a battery, including: 1) current device power status (e.g., on mains or on battery); 2) power charge status (e.g., percent of full charge); and 3) estimated time remaining (e.g., minutes).

Purpose

This standard addresses a need for an openly defined, independent standard for power status information exchange from PHDs to manager(s) (e.g., cell phones, personal computers, personal health appliances, and set-top boxes). Interoperability is the key to growing the potential market for monitoring the power status of devices and enabling people to be better informed participants in the management of their health.

Abstract

New IEEE Standard - Active. Within the context of the ISO/IEEE 11073 family of standards for device communication, a normative definition of power status communication between personal health devices (PHDs) and managers (e.g., cell phones, personal computers, personal health appliances, and set-top boxes) is established by this standard in a manner that enables plug-and-play interoperability. Appropriate portions of existing standards are leveraged, including ISO/IEEE 11073 terminology, information models, application profile standards, and transport standards. The use of specific term codes, formats, and behaviors in telehealth environments restricting optionality in base frameworks in favor of interoperability are specified. A common core of communication functionality for monitoring the power status of PHDs is defined in this standard.
