802.24 TAG Approve November minutes TAG Action Items from November: Tim Godfrey, EPRI

Sub 1 GHz White Paper Requested that the paper title was changed from "IEEE 802.24 Vertical Applications TAG“ to "Smart Grid Standards for Operation in Sub 1 GHz Bands“ Published in December Posted on 802.24 web page: Working with IEEE publications to make it easier to access 802.24 Smart Grid Standards for Operation in Sub-1 GHz Bands Tim Godfrey, EPRI

Wednesday 802.24.1 Smart Grid TG Tim Godfrey, EPRI

TSN White Paper Comment Collection Will remain open until Meeting The 802.24 TAG and 802.1 TSN TG solicit comments on 802.24-18-0011-00-sgtg "Utility Applications of Time Sensitive Networking White Paper" Comment submittal spreadsheet provided Will remain open until Meeting Expect to finalize in March and start publishing process Tim Godfrey, EPRI

Collaboration with 802.21 'Network Enablers for Seamless HMD-based VR (Virtual Reality)’ Subir Das 21-19-0009-01-0000 Was presented in 802.11 and 802.15. Subject of discussion Vertical Applications Collaboration Opportunities Relates to activities in Real-time. New activity just starting on Real Time (by Oliver Holland) Will include text contributions in March 2019. Tim Godfrey, EPRI

AR/VR Low Latency Goals of 802.21 activity independent of what RTA in 802.11 does Goal 1: Letting the wireless WGs know what the wireless link requirements are Goal 2: Define a higher layer adaption layer across all wireless links. (and maybe .3 also) Timeframe: submit PAR in June for July approval. Link Layer Issues: Jitter, Latency Provide information to wireless WG High Layer Issue: QoS, QoE & Mobility A new standard in 802.21 Cross-cutting services and management. Similar cross=cutting purpose to OmniRAN, but these functions are not defined Focus on Quality of Experience. Work to solve the problem should be coordinated among multiple working groups. This class of applications involves multiple 802 working groups MAC/PHY WGs, 802.21 as service framework, etc. 802.24 can serve as a point of coordination with joint meetings of the individual projects for component standards 802.15 is interested from the perspective of 802.15.3 mmwave for very high BW. The MAC is designed for bounded latency. Tim Godfrey, EPRI

AR/VR Low Latency IEEE 802 can create a community for developing a suite of capabilities suited for this class of applications Moving the focus from maximizing throughput only to also consider quality of experience and reliability. Build on 802.24 Low Latency White Paper Broadly define the set of applications (vertical and otherwise) around bounded / low latency Look at the VR architecture diagram and consider the appropriate standard for each link. They will be a mix of wireless and wired. IEEE 802 could provide comparable services to what is promised by 5G. Tim Godfrey, EPRI

Actions Plan to continue joint meetings (March) 802.21 plans to provide the services layer above the MAC/PHY Various WG’s will develop amendments to their standards to support RTC. It is up to WG to determine if any amendment is needed 802.21 will provide input on requirements to WGs 802.24 will provide a venue for collaboration (joint meetings) at Plenary Vertical Application areas can provide input on specific use cases Include representatives from related activities in other WG’s Tim Godfrey, EPRI

Thursday 802.24 TAG Tim Godfrey, EPRI

ITU and Radio Regulatory Items Update from 802.18 – Jay Holcomb Discussion: Ireland consultation on 400 MHz Further Consultation on the Release of the 410 – 415.5 / 420 – 425.5 MHz Sub-band ComReg 18/92 Spectrum to be auctioned, both for LTE and in small segments of 100 KHz. Potential for 802.15.4g in this? similar to “purposed” licensed spectrum in China and elsewhere. Also 15.4g can operate in Part 90 and Part 101 FCC spectrum. This is just Ireland: will this lead to further similar actions in other regulatory areas? 1.4 GHz spectrum recently announced is being used for telemetry in oil/gas industry with 802.16s Traditional license model – geographic ownership Part 90 Tim Godfrey, EPRI

Liaison with ATIS TOPS Council IoT Categorization Focus Group ATIS: Alliance for Telecommunications Industry Solutions Review and comment on IoT Characteristics Matrix provided by ATIS Tim Godfrey, EPRI

Follow Up Teleconference Invite 24.2 IoT TG to submit comments Consolidate comments for response to ATIS by their requested deadline of Feb 28. Email to reflector, ask comments to be pre-submitted by Feb 19th. Call time: Thursday Feb 21, 9 Pacific, Noon Eastern Tim Godfrey, EPRI

“Network Integration” action item Action assigned from 802 EC leadership conference in July. Discussion on role and positioning of IEEE 802 in standards, especially with respect to 3GPP and the publicity on “5G” What is meant by Network Integration? Does the IEEE 802 architecture provide a unique value to vertical market? Is IEEE 802 more suited to deployment in the communication infrastructure of private enterprise, industry, and the individual user? (Compared to 3GPP, which is more oriented towards service providers?) The IEEE 802 architecture enables networks that are like Ethernet: Well understood, mature, predictable. A “cleaner” integration of disparate technologies under the common architecture and addressing. Can we develop a clearer definition and description of this distinction and the value for the user / implementer? Can this be developed into a white paper? Tim Godfrey, EPRI

Network Integration: Notes from November Max Riegel contribution 24-18-0026r0 Thoughts on IEEE 802 network integration with respect to P802.1CF Based on many discussions of the place of 802.11 in 5G. 5G SC Conclusions – AANI integrating 802.11 into 5G domain. Nothing corresponding in 3GPP Industry connections – NENDICA Flexible Factory IoT, Data Center Bridging What’s missing – a picture of 802 as a peer to 5G 5G promises they will do “everything” But, they don’t do anything wired 5G requires an extensive PLMN to support it. It is designed to help the cellular operator grow their market Verticals might not want an operator in the middle of their network Value proposition: 802 networks are customer-owned Example – Santa Clara Emergency services issues Tim Godfrey, EPRI

“Low latency” White Paper Achieving low latency with IEEE 802 standards Including wired and wireless communications An alternative (or complement) to 5G URLLC A set of vertical applications enabled by low latency The challenges of reliable low latency in unlicensed spectrum. Adapting TSN’s “FRER” feature Adapting 802 wireless to licensed spectrum? Operating over multiple bands or channels? Special cases for high data rates for immersive video Several people interested in contributing Action: Post call for contributions Start reviewing contributions in January Contribution from Oliver Holland (who cannot attend in January) Tim Godfrey, EPRI

Liaison with IEC SEG8 Scope of SEG8: Assess, provide an overview and prioritization of the evolution of technical development and standardization in the field of communication technologies and architectures The report includes aspects relevant to both Smart Grid and IoT. Document shared in 802.24 Private Area IEC_SEG8_Deliverable2_draft_181118_ext_clean.pdf Updated version uploaded to private area with annotations Key chapters relevant to input from 802.24 IoT Technologies Single-pair Ethernet (SPE) Deterministic Networking Low-Power Wide-Area Networks (LPWAN) V2V, V2I, V2P and V2N communication technologies Call for other 802 WGs to participate in review and provide comments Tim Godfrey, EPRI

802.15.4g and 802.11ah Coexistence (802.19.3) 802.24 will develop a whitepaper/document for application-specific use cases. Identifying where each standard is most suitable, and how to make best use of other changes. Identify use cases where 802.15.4g is not sufficient and both are needed Could be choices of applications, channel guidelines, duty cycle, Avoid perception that 802 standards are unable to coexist Evaluate and describe potential application-level implications of delay/latency increases due to mutual interference If NS-3 simulation models can be shared, others in IEEE 802 could progress that work. MERL will share simulation models on Github. New modules for 11ah 15.4g Tim Godfrey, EPRI

2019 TAG Activity Plan “Low latency” White Paper Start in January Include 802.21 AR/VR activity Nendica FFIOT might also fit into this A whitepaper/document for application-specific use cases of Sub 1GHz standards 802.15.4g and 802.11ah. Identifying where each standard is most suitable, and how to make best use of mechanisms proposed in 802.19.3 TG. Can this also include applying 802.15.4s in sub-1GHz spectrum? TBD 802.24 white paper on IoT and P2413 P2413 entering Sponsor Ballot Update of first Smart Grid white paper to address latest amendments of 802.15.4 u, v, w, x, y Tim Godfrey, EPRI
