  1. Liaison Report for OmniRAN EC SG Authors: Date: 2013-09-17 Michael Montemurro, BlackBerry

  2. Abstract This presentation contains the September 2013 liaison report for OmniRAN EC SG. Michael Montemurro, BlackBerry

  3. OmniRAN Activity in Nanjing • Reviewed the feedback from the July EC meeting • Reviewed feedback from IEEE 802.1 face-to-face meeting. • Began development of a PAR and 5C proposal to be submitted for approval by the EC in the November 2013 meeting. OmniRAN is recommending that IEEE 802.1 host the project. Michael Montemurro, BlackBerry

  4. OmniRAN EC SG Status • IEEE 802 EC Geneva Jul 13 closing meeting decision • Motion: • Develop a PAR and 5C for an IEEE 802 Recommended Practice by Nov ‘13 • Potential title: ‘Network Reference Model and Functional Description of IEEE 802 based Access Networks’ • Similar to a ‘Stage 2’ specification • Suggest the best home for the project. • https://mentor.ieee.org/omniran/dcn/13/omniran-13-0057-00-ecsg-omniran-ec-closing-report.pptx • OmniRAN EC SG got extension for creation of PAR & 5C proposal (EC Motion passed by 13/0/1) • Tony Jeffree indicated that 802.1 could be a “host” for this effort. • OmniRAN scheduled a number of meetings for creation of PAR & 5C until October 10th, 2013 • See next slide

  5. Filling the gap in IEEE 802Mapping IEEE 802 specifications to service requirements • Direct evaluation of IEEE 802 protocols to address service/deployment requirements is challenging. • A Stage 2 specification provides a mapping of protocols to a functional network model, which facilitates easier evaluation. ‘External’ requirements from the service/deployment perspective Develop a logical/functional model for evaluation of those requirements; Available IEEE 802 specifications of protocols and attributes. ? ?

  6. ‘Stage 2’ Definition by ITU-T I.130/Q.65 The Stage 2 defines • a functional model using functional entities, • the functional entity actions needed, • information flow or API calls between functional entities • recommendations for the allocation of functional entities to physical locations for a few examples. The Stage 2 provides • a single functional specification which can be applied in a number of different physical realizations, • a precise definition of functional capabilities and their possible distribution in the network to support the required network capabilities, • a detailed description of what functions, information flows and API calls will be provided, but not how they are to be implemented, • requirements for protocol capabilities as input to Stage 3 of the method. • The output of Stage 2 is used by • protocol designers to specify the protocols between physical entities, • node designers to specify the functional requirements of the nodes, • network planners.

  7. OmniRAN Meetings until November 2013as agreed in Aug 7th conference call • Wed, Sep 4th, 2013, F2F Meeting York, UKw/ remote participation • Tue, Sep 17th, 730-930 am ET/1930-2130 Nanjing, F2F session w/ remote participation • Fri, Sep 27th, 2013, 09-11am ET: Confcall • Fri, Oct 4th, 2013, 09-11am ET: Confcall • Thu, Oct 10th, 2013, 09-11am ET: Confcall • Fri, Oct 11th, 2013, CoB: Submission deadline for PAR to EC list • Mon, Nov 11th, 0800-1000am CT: EC Opening Meeting Dallas F2F Meeting announcements, agenda proposals and dial-in details for all meetings are published on OmniRAN web site.

  8. OmniRAN Plan for November • OmniRAN will address comments on PAR and 5C document. • OmniRAN is recommending that the PAR be assigned to IEEE 802.1 by the EC. • OmniRAN will submit a PAR and 5C proposal for EC approval in the November 2013 meeting. Michael Montemurro, BlackBerry
