Publishing Status of TSN White Paper Missing references corrected in last review version. Review final draft if available from IEEE editors. Tim Godfrey, EPRI

Wednesday 802.24 TAG 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 Tim Godfrey, EPRI

“Low latency” White Paper AR/VR Take 802.21 white paper, dissect use cases and requirements. Goal for white paper Influence 802.11be or other groups working in low-latency areas Outreach to other standard groups Review progress since meeting: Dillon will take 802.21 white paper “21-18-0061-04-0000-a-white-paper-on-use-cases-and-requirements-for-supporting-hmd-based-vr-applications” and use as source text for next revision of White Paper draft “24-19-0003-03-0000-low-latency-communication-white-paper” Check with Alan Jones to see if there is an interest in creating a contribution based in RTA TIG output. Tim will take some use cases from TSN white paper for utility applications Consider a section to distinguish between latency and jitter implications. Low latency also has implications on reliability, predictability, etc Oliver Holland leading white paper development Notes captured into draft after July meeting: Current Draft 802.24-19-0003r4 Tim Godfrey, EPRI

AR/VR collaboration in 802.24 AR/VR is an identified vertical application for Smart Grid (electric utilities) for field force, safety, and training 802.24 will liaise to other WGs if they develop amendments to their standards to support low latency. The low-latency white paper will provide input on requirements to WGs Vertical Application areas can provide input on specific use cases Include representatives from related activities in other WG’s: 802.1 TSN, 802.11be, 802.15.3e 802.24 host development and collaboration 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. In current white paper, latency limit is 5mS. Combination of wired/wireless. Some use case may incorporate a WAN. Existing testing shows challenges exceeding two hops (switches) in a network IEEE 802 could provide comparable services to what is promised by 5G. Tim Godfrey, EPRI

Discussion What are the key requirements for QoE for AR/VR? Are latency and jitter separate? Motion to Photon latency – 20mS Upper Bound Jitter doesn’t really matter if latency bound is met Dillon: Need for this work in IEEE 802 is based on prohibitive cost of serving these applications over commercial cellular Consider an IEEE 802 scenario using existing standards: 802.1 TSN with 10G Ethernet, and 802.11ac, ad, or ax Identify gaps and contribute to 802.11be as a proposed requirement. Need to ensure that TSN end-to-end mechanisms can be adopted into 802.11 802.21 scenario with moving train – between heterogeneous networks Tim Godfrey, EPRI

Next Steps 802.21 to provide text contributions Goal is to have the real time white paper by 2020? Bring together various working groups to solve issues for VR and performance. Application space is driven by ever increasing resolution. Target HDMI 1.2 specification. Resolution and frame rate drive data rate. Can it be compressed? This can be seen as alternative to 5G approaches, but standards-based and lower cost to use. Show how Wi-Fi technology can provide an equally good or better result and performance (bandwidth and low jitter and low latency) Map identified uses cases on to various IEEE 802 standards. Tim Godfrey, EPRI

"IEEE 802 Solutions for Vertical Applications" Previously called “Network Integration” Draft White Paper From July IEEE802-24/19-0017r1 Volunteers requested provide text contributions 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 802.19.3 project schedule: WG Ballot Sept 2019 ? SA Ballot November 2019 ? Consider starting white paper development in November if 19.3 project is on schedule? Tim Godfrey, EPRI

2019 TAG Activity Plan “Low latency” White Paper Include 802.21 AR/VR activity Nendica FFIOT is completed – any material to reference? “IEEE 802 Solutions for Vertical Applications” white paper about unique benefits of IEEE 802 architecture 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? 2H 2019 for starting TBD 802.24 white paper on IoT and P2413 Update of first Smart Grid white paper to address latest amendments of 802.15.4 u, v, w, x, y, Revmd Tim Godfrey, EPRI
