doc.: IEEE /688r2 Submission September 2003 Stephen McCann, Siemens Roke ManorSlide 3 Interworking Scope The scope of the project is to enhance the standard and amendments, through the generation of a Recommended Practice (or Standard) to add interworking capability to both cellular and external IP based networks (including the Internet)
doc.: IEEE /688r2 Submission September 2003 Stephen McCann, Siemens Roke ManorSlide 4 Objectives To generate documents to enhance the IEEE standard To provide recommended practice for BSS to external network interoperability. These outputs will define and specify the addition of specific interfaces to deal with interworking (e.g. security) Looks at how other TGs fit into an overall interworking solution Creates a better hotspot user experience.
doc.: IEEE /688r2 Submission September 2003 Stephen McCann, Siemens Roke ManorSlide 5 Way forward IEEE requires some extra work in the DS to define external interworking TGe, TGf, TGi and TGk have started to do this already with functional definitions Accounting/Charging ? Policy ? Should assess WFA, GSMA, 3GPP & 3GPP2 requirements placed on IEEE
doc.: IEEE /688r2 Submission September 2003 Stephen McCann, Siemens Roke ManorSlide 6 3GPP Can proposed 3GPP interworking model be achieved from current IEEE standards ?
doc.: IEEE /688r2 Submission September 2003 Stephen McCann, Siemens Roke ManorSlide 7 WiFi Alliance Public Access WiFi Alliance Public Access III : –QoS (TGe provides QoS over the air) –Handoff (Provided by 802 Handoff group) –Policy (Network layer issue, but does it impact IEEE ) –Mobility (same again) –Roaming (same again, some provided by TGi) enhanced association service
doc.: IEEE /688r2 Submission September 2003 Stephen McCann, Siemens Roke ManorSlide 8 Roadmap Draft skeleton becomes a Recommended Practice (RP) –Incorporate the WLAN interworking requirements from 3GPP, 3GPP2, GSMA, WiFi Alliance and others –Work towards technical solutions for the differences between the interworking models
doc.: IEEE /688r2 Submission September 2003 Stephen McCann, Siemens Roke ManorSlide 9 Straw Poll That a motion be raised at the Albuquerque meeting stating that an IEEE Study Group be formed, to develop an amendment/recommended practice to extend and modify IEEE to interwork with external IP networks, including Cellular networks.
