doc.: IEEE l2r Submission September 2012 N. Sato & K. FukuiSlide 3 Summary This presentation provides some of tips for following perspectives –To show use cases to share what L2R protocol will be required –Proposing preliminary ideas regarding what functionalities will be required Note: This is really preliminary and does not cover all.

FukuiSlide 4 Vending machine Smart metering meteringM2M Smart meter Concentrator Environmental monitoring Ad-hoc data collection What mesh will be required for FAN? Mainly, data collection from many nodes in FAN and control of many nodes in FAN from the outer server – Many to one and One to many routing protocol will be suitable Ad-hoc data collection in the field area may be required in some use cases – Reactive P2P routing may be required Covering nodes within one PAN and expected to interwork Low power technology may be required in environmental monitoring or gas metering. Low power routing

Less cost repairing process will be required when the network has problem. After the problem has gone, network should be reformed (maybe to almost original ) to reduce the load.

To distinguish the protocols, it may need to hire a Protocol ID. IPv6 6LoWPAN L2R mesh IEEE TCPUDP Mesh Management This can be vendor specific or be defined in the standard. But we should consider so that multiple protocols works over L2R mesh at least. Protocol ID?

FukuiSlide 7 Other required stuffs To make it work in the large network –Enforcement of reliability Enhancement of hop-by-hop retransmission to reduce the E2E retransmission –Scattering the Joining timing when the whole network restarts Scalability –Nodes density, network size etc. Sleeping routers and sleeping end nodes for the environmental monitoring Management of flooding, multicasting –Timing, grouping etc. Congestion avoidance, flow control Security Priority of frames Others –Considering scalability of hardware resources to network size
