Joint workshop of TG13 with ITU-T
Joint meeting on February 7, 2018 in Geneva
Objectives:
both groups prepare similar technologies having similar timelines
IEEE has more Li-Fi experts but no ecosystem yet
ITU-T Q18/SG15 has few chipset vendors and own ecosystem in place
IEEE includes HB-PHY according to G.hn recommendation
Letter of assurance will be requested
Integration with MAC needs technical support from ITU-T
Questions to ITU-T
What PHYs are being used?
How to resolve coexistence issues between different PHYs?
Under what conditions G.hn PHY can be integrated into MAC?

Volker presented status and timeline of TG13
If G.hn PHY is used, just use references
IPR issues solved with SDO that owns the original text
Exchange of drafts between both groups is desirable
ITU-T G.vlc members should get access to IEEE draft
TG13 members should get access to ITU-T G.vlc draft
Interaction through comments and resolution in each group
