Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) and IEC (the International Electrotechnical
Commission) form the specialized system for worldwide standardization. National bodies that are
members of ISO or IEC participate in the development of International Standards through technical
committees established by the respective organization to deal with particular fields of technical
activity. ISO and IEC technical committees collaborate in fields of mutual interest. Other international
organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO and IEC, also take part in the
work. In the field of information technology, ISO and IEC have established a joint technical committee,
ISO/IEC JTC 1.
The procedures used to develop this document and those intended for its further maintenance are
described in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 1. In particular the different approval criteria needed for
the different types of document should be noted. This document was drafted in accordance with the
editorial rules of the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2 (see www.iso.org/directives).
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject
of patent rights. ISO and IEC shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent
rights. Details of any patent rights identified during the development of the document will be in the
Introduction and/or on the ISO list of patent declarations received (see www.iso.org/patents).
Any trade name used in this document is information given for the convenience of users and does not
constitute an endorsement.
For an explanation on the meaning of ISO specific terms and expressions related to conformity
assessment, as well as information about ISO’s adherence to the WTO principles in the Technical
Barriers to Trade (TBT) see the following URL: Foreword - Supplementary information
The committee responsible for this document is ISO/IEC JTC 1, Information technology,, Subcommittee
SC 6, Telecommunications and information exchange between systems.
This first edition of ISO/IEC 15149-3, together with ISO/IEC 15149-1, ISO/IEC 15149-2, and
ISO/IEC 15149-4, cancels and replaces ISO/IEC 15149:2011, which has been technically revised.
ISO/IEC 15149 consists of the following parts, under the general title Information technology —
Telecommunications and information exchange between systems:
— Part 1: Air Interface
— Part 2: In-Band Control Protocol for Wireless Power Transfer
— Part 3: Relay Protocol for Extended Range
— Part 4: Security Protocol for Authentication

Introduction
This International Standard provides protocols for magnetic field area network (MFAN). MFAN
can support the service based on wireless communication and wireless power transfer in harsh
environment. MFAN is composed of four protocols; Air Interface, in-band control protocol, relay
protocol, and security protocol.
ISO/IEC 15149-1 specifies the physical layer and media access control layer protocols of wireless
network over a magnetic field.
ISO/IEC 15149-2 specifies the control protocol for wireless power transfer based on magnetic field
area network.
ISO/IEC 15149-3 specifies the relay protocol to extend effective network coverage of magnetic field
area network.
ISO/IEC 15149-4 specifies the security protocol to authenticate nodes to communicate in magnetic field
area network.
