Pan networks in relation to other types of networks
I have been doing a research assignment all semester for my telecommunications class. I was thinking that a section on Pan networks in relation to other types of networks I.E. Wan, Lan, and Man networks could be beneficial. I'm not to sure how to attach an image but there is one that i found that could be of some use. It's basically a graphic of how Pan networks stack up against other networks. Just an idea. I've also included my references below so that you can look for yourselves. .

The first reference has the graphics.

Microchip Implants
I heard someone on the radio talking about how the PAN concept was based around a microchip implanted in the user for the purposes of identification. For a sort of an ID to auto-login to a device when the user touches a it. Also when two people shake hands their networks could bridge, allowing for the automatic exchange of data. This radio personality also said that Microsoft owns many patents relating to microchip implants and PAN technology. Is there more information about any of this? --Zerothis 01:04, 31 August 2006 (UTC)...._...


 * Try Microchip implant (human). I have added this to the See also section. ~Kvng (talk) 16:13, 31 March 2020 (UTC)
