NIST PAP#2 January 2011 Abstract: This work area investigates the strengths, weaknesses, capabilities, and constraints of existing and emerging standards-based physical media for wireless communications. The approach is to work with the appropriate standard development organizations (SDOs) to determine the characteristics of each technology for Smart Grid application areas and types. Results are used to assess the appropriateness of wireless communications technologies for meeting Smart Grid applications. http://collaborate.nist.gov/twiki-sggrid/bin/view/SmartGrid/PAP02Wireless Bruce Kraemer, Marvell

Recommendation (Thursday) - Outcome January 2011 doc.: IEEE 802.11-11/0133r2 January 2011 Recommendation (Thursday) - Outcome 1. Continue to solicit members to read and comment on PAP#2 Report V1 2. Considered voting options without making decision: Yes with no comments Yes with non-binding comments No with willingness to change to Yes if certain conditions are met Review procedure to submit 802 group vote Preferred Option: Make no group decision today – allow more time to read document & collect comments - convene conf call Jan 26 to review comments and voting positions.

January 2011 Australia Australia has issued a call for candidates for their Smart Metering HAN Responses from 802 should be provided Probably best from individual WG, e.g 802.11, 802.15, 802.16 http://share.aemo.com.au/smartmetering/default.aspx Bruce Kraemer, Marvell

January 2011 Group conclusion Agreed that the revised question to Australia should be further developed by the 802 WGs and ideally sent as one question from the collective group. If that approach is not feasible, at least expect each WG to submit a similarly worded question. WG chairs will refine the language in time to respond by the Jan 31 deadline. Given the US - Australia time offset and that Jan 31 is Monday the 802 WGs completion date should be Friday Jan 28. Bruce Kraemer, Marvell
