Home Gateway Trends October 2011 Duncan Bees, HGI CTO/CBO “CONNECTING HOMES – ENABLING SERVICES”

HGI: Connecting Homes, Enabling Services 2 NEC

Broadband Services Environment 2011  Convergence of wireless and broadband (access, services)  Increasing presence of smart phone & tablet in the home  More “over the top” video alternatives  Interconnection of home area network, devices, sensors  Strong focus on energy management as leading service Broadband service providers offering more integrated and interesting services 3

4/27/ HG – QoS Gateway to the Home Home Gateway plays key role in interconnecting the home, providing QoS, and supporting applications and media

HG S/W Modularity as a Service Enabler Framework for application support on HG providing : reliability, life cycle management, remote management, module dependencies… Smart Energy E-health …

APIs to the Home Area Network 6 HN (devices IP based) HANydevices (Non-IP based) IP Gateway(GW/EM) HANxdevices (Non-IP based) Device/Interface Abstraction API HEM Application in the HG Remote (cloud-based) Application Internet HG with “standardised” APIs to native IP and non-IP devices First application: Home Energy management

HEM Use Cases Clusters 1. Visualization of current energy and power data 2. Visualization of historical data 3. Alarm in different events 4. Home Domain Overload management 5. Optimize energy cost 6. Demand response 7. End User Control 8. Consumer/Prosumer tariffs simulator Others under consideration (in-home energy production, electric vehicle, etc.) 7

Increasing Speeds & Feeds WAN side Fibre and high-speed xDSL LAN side Multiple Wi-Fi channels Gigabit ethernet USB 3.0 or eSATA Data over powerline, coax and phone Home Area Networking IPv6 Peer-peer traffic 8 Performance and interface requirements are increasing.
