Protocol Architecture
As mentioned, the USB model is preserved, and generally minor adjustments made to fit the specific needs of a wireless system. The changes are as follows, from top to bottom:
- The function layer only suffers minor changes to increase efficiency and support isochronism.
- The device layer includes wireless-oriented security and device management features.
- The bus layer does not change its functionality, but is substantially adapted for efficiency and security on wireless networks.

Famous quotes containing the word architecture:
“In short, the building becomes a theatrical demonstration of its functional ideal. In this romanticism, High-Tech architecture is, of course, no different in spirit—if totally different in form—from all the romantic architecture of the past.”
—Dan Cruickshank (b. 1949)
