4. HGI’s Mission
The HGI’s core mission is to translate Broadband Service Providers’ (BSPs) near and mid-term service plans into published requirements for home network equipment and technologies
We accomplish this by
Leadership by the service providers in setting out service requirements
Strong collaboration by the vendor members in developing specifications that support the service requirements

5. Isn’t HGI just about Home Gateways?
No, the scope of HGI has been extended to cover digital home building blocks
HGI ecosystem
Centred around the home gateway
Includes many elements of the digital home from the access networks to home networking technologies
The membership base includes suppliers from around the globe, and a service provider base concentrated in Europe and Asia.
HGI invites all companies from around the globe to join and contribute to this ecosystem

9. “Green” outreach Cooperation among SDO is key in making a real impact
HGI provided detailed input into the models and power targets for EU Code of Conduct on Energy Consumption of Broadband Equipment (including V4 during 2010)
HGI has liaised RWD009 on requirements for Energy Efficient HG to BBF. HGI and BBF are working closely on all matters of energy efficiency.
HGI has liaised RD015 on Common Power Supply to ETSI and will encourage standardisation within ITU
HGI has liaised energy measurement procedures from RD011 to ETSI

10. “Green” Outreach continued
Broadband Service Providers have a role to play in home energy management.
Home gateway as services and interconnect platform
Use of broadband infrastructure
HGI is bringing together stakeholders in the development of RD017: Home Energy management and control service.
Building from Beywatch and Energy at Home
Consolidating requirements among the service providers
Input from Energy industry is very important

11. HGI QoS is key

12. HG Performance Testing
The HGI has set out performance requirements for HGs in its test plan (HGI-GWD011-R3)
QoS, multisession and routing performance
Energy consumption
HGI first test Event in Lannion, France September 2009
Second HG test event in November 2010
The performance requirements of NGA capable HG will increase dramatically
Routing, QoS and services with up to Gigabit interfaces
Software execution environment
IPv6
Full energy efficiency test
HGI membership required to take part

…and others
In many cases, HGI is in dialogue with other groups from a system point of view, and partner organisations are providing specialist expertise.
A key role for HGI is to develop a system view – for example in testing, diagnostics, and energy efficiency.
HGI work has initiated work in many other groups
HGI relies on expertise in these other fora and does not try to replicate what they do

19. Liaison relationships for home networking
HGI has developed a QoS architecture that represents real solutions to real problems. The architecture is being updated to include extension beyond classification based techniques to identify services. We rely upon our partners for comment and collaboration.
