The aim of this presentation: Aims: Give status update relating to the preparation of the draft Discuss any issues Agree the way forward
HRP UWB PHY enhancement status TG4z has approved two consensus presentations into the baseline At our July session 15-18-0375-00-004z-srdev-phy-consensus.pptx At our Sept session 15-18-0477-00-004z-hrp-uwb-phy-enhanced-mode-consensus.pptx There are a number of items still to be agreed which means that the text really cannot be generated yet If I have time I may begin to work on the agreed items
Ranging methods On our 1st Conference Call (2nd October), Aditya Padaki asked about MAC level ranging facilities and the proposal to base this on what was done in 15.8 I said I planned a contribution to TG4z (based on 15-15-0429) but updated include some new items needed for 4z Each version of 15-18-0108 proposed using the methods and IE from 802.15.8 To bring this into 802.15.4z I plan to do the following: Revise 15-15-0429 into a TG4z submission to present (hopefully) in Bangkok and seek a motion to approve the text into the draft If any TG4z participants wish to review the source doc and suggest improvements or items to include I would be happy to have this input
LRP UWB PHY enhancement status – (1) David Barras gave text proposal at our May session 15-18-0260-00-004z-text-proposal-for-lrp-uwb-phy.docx This was never officially approved into the baseline/draft Closing report 15-18-0261-03 calls this “Content for Baseline Draft” Minutes 15-18-0240-00 record its presentation and a discussion At our September session David presented 15-18-0408-01-004z-spectrum-sharing-and-payload-capacity.pptx And there is companion text submission 15-18-0409-00-004z-draft-text-for-spectrum-sharing-and-payload-capacity.docx This is not officially approved either as neither minutes nor closing mention it However 15-18-0260-00 and 15-18-0409-00 are reasonable texts upon which to base the LRP UWB PHY clause I therefore propose to proceed on that basis We can review and approve the resultant draft in due course
LRP UWB PHY enhancement status – (2) Figures in 15-18-0260-00 and 15-18-0409-00…. Could David send me Visio drawings files for the figures please? In support of 15-18-0409-00, if possible: Could David review the MAC primitives or PIB changes needed to drive the new modes, data rates etc and provide the text for this This would be okay in a separate submission in Bangkok Would be good also to provide message sequence chart for the complex interactions of the Scan Mode Round-Trip Time-of-Flight Huan-Bang Li gave presentation at our September session 15-18-0432-01-004z-suggested-changes-to-include-ch-3-for-enhancing-lrp-uwb.pptx This was approved into the baseline, and although it is only a only pptx it actually details all the required changes to the standard I can integrate these into the draft without further input
LRP UWB PHY enhancement status – (3) There is some confusion with respect to some of the July submissions and their inclusion in the draft/baseline: This relates to 15-18-0215, 15-18-0301 and 15-18-0302 Firstly 15-18-0215: The July San Diego Minutes (15-18-0320-00) records a motion proposing 15-18-0215-01 into the baseline, however 15-18-0215 does not seem to exist in the WG15 Mentor system? For now, I propose to ignore/forget about this unknown document If anyone can shed light on what this is ….. Please bring this up on our next call or during the Bangkok face-to-face meetings 15-18-0301 and 15-18-0302 See next sheet
July meeting and 15-18-0301 and 15-18-0302 July San Diego Closing Report (15-18-0376-00) Says we had a (presentation of) contribution 15-18-0302-00-004z-phy-mac-functional-description-changes-for-secure-authenticated-ranging.pptx Says baseline merge for LRP approved the following: (by unanimous consent) 15-18-0301-01-004z-change-proposal-for-secure-authenticating-ranging-using-lrp-uwb-phy.pptx July San Diego Minutes (15-18-0320-00) Say we had a presentation of And reports the approval of: 15-18-301-00 On mentor I find: 15-18-0301-00 uploaded on Fri 6-Jul is a WORD document 15-18-0301-01 uploaded on Tue 10-Jul (during the session) is a PowerPoint presentation (looks similar to 15-18-0302-00 uploaded 6-Jul) 15-18-0301-02 uploaded on Fri 7-Sep (a WORD doc) just before our Waikoloa session (internally this doc incorrectly says it was submitted on 6 July, but it is different to rev 00)
Proposed resolution of 15-18-0301/0302 issues Status: I believe a presentation was made using PowerPoint version of either 15-18-0302-00 or 15-18-0301-01 Not so clear whether TG4z reviewed the text submission or agreed to include it in the draft Definitely we have not reviewed 15-18-0301-02 uploaded on 7 Sept and not mentioned in September minutes or closing report My proposal to resolve this: Have the author (or a delegate) present 15-18-0301-02 in Bangkok and seek approval from TG4z to include it into the draft Since it is on the server already participants have time review this beforehand In advance, the editor may integrate this into the draft if time allows
Other At our September session Aditya V Padaki presented 15-18-0458-00-004z-inclusion-of-uwb-secure-service-information-element.ppt This was approved into the baseline, however it is a pptx file On our 1st Conference Call (2nd October), Aditya agreed: To provide a ms-word version of this that describes the IE and all its sub-fields (see how other IE are described in the current 802.15.4) May I also ask: That this includes body text to refer to the IE and say when it is appropriate to use it, ideally with the aid of a message sequence chart (e.g. this might be built upon two-way-ranging) If possible for separate Visio files for any figures
Actions Billy: David: Aditya (or a colleague): TG4 / LRP advocate: Begin integrating 15-18-0260-00, 15-18-0409-00 and 15-18-0432-01 David: Please consider text covering MAC primitives / PIB to control features have to change to drive all the new modes and data rates This should be a submission via mentor to TG4z and presentation in Bangkok Provide Visio figures for the figures in 15-18-0260 and 15-18-0409 These can be simply emailed to the editor Aditya (or a colleague): Provide a word text describing the IE (of 15-18-0458-00) and its sub-fields, and describe the appropriate use of it with the aid of a MSC This should be submitted into the TG4z mentor doc system and presented in Bangkok (email Visio files for any figures to the editor) TG4 / LRP advocate: Be ready for 15-18-0301-02 presentation in Bangkok
