Closing Report for Task Group 4g802.15.4 PHY for Smart Utility Networks Phil Beecher, Consultant Chair Robert F. Heile, ZigBee Alliance
TG4g-SUN PAR Scope • This Standard defines an amendment to IEEE 802.15.4. It addresses principally outdoor Low Data Rate Wireless Smart Metering Utility Network requirements. It defines an alternate PHY and only those MAC modifications needed to support its implementation. • Specifically, the amendment supports all of the following: • Operation in any of the regionally available license exempt frequency bands, such as 700MHz to 1GHz, and the 2.4 GHz band. • Data rate of at least 40 kbits per second but not more than 1000 kbits per second • Achieve the optimal energy efficient link margin given the environmental conditions encountered in Smart Metering deployments. • Principally outdoor communications • PHY frame sizes up to a minimum of 1500 octets • Simultaneous operation for at least 3 co-located orthogonal networks • Connectivity to at least one thousand direct neighbors characteristic of dense urban deployment • Provides mechanisms that enable coexistence with other systems in the same band(s) including IEEE 802.11, 802.15 and 802.16 systems Slide 36 Slide 36
TG4g-SUN PAR Purpose To provide a global standard that facilitates very large scale process control applications such as the utility smart-grid network. This amendment supports large, geographically diverse networks with minimal infrastructure. Smart Metering Utility Networks can potentially contain millions of fixed endpoints. The communication range, robustness, and coexistence characteristics required for this class of application have not been met with existing 802 standards (See explanatory notes in Section 8.1 Doc#15-08-705).

Closing Report for Task Group 4e802.15.4 MAC Enhancements Ray Krasinski, Philips Chair Robert F. Heile, ZigBee Alliance
IEEE 802.15.4j Task Group Closing Report 4th Meeting of the MBAN Task Group San Francisco, CA, USA July 17-22, 2011 Raymond Krasinski, Philips
Scope of MBAN Task Group • Draft an amendment of 802.15.4 for MBAN • This amendment defines a physical layer for IEEE 802.15.4 in the 2360 to 2400 MHz band which complies with Federal Communications Commission (FCC) MBAN rules. This amendment defines modifications to the MAC needed to support this new physical layer. Raymond Krasinski, Philips
MBAN Background • GE Healthcare petitioned the US Federal Communications Commission to use the 2.36 to 2.4 GHz band for Medical BAN • Band to be used only for medical applications* • This band is primarily allocated in various parts to aeronautical mobile telemetry and telecommand (AMT), radio astronomy and amateur • MBAN will use band on a secondary basis and must defer to primary users • FCC NPRM on MBAN released in June 2009 • This closed to responses from interested parties in October 2009 * Proposed eligibility & permissible communications: Licenses by rule operations by authorized health care professionals and by any other person, if such use is prescribed by a health care professional. Limited to transmission of data (no voice) used for monitoring, diagnosing or treating patients Raymond Krasinski, Philips
AFTRCC, Philips and GE Proposal for Secondary Use of Spectrum by MBANS • Representatives of AFTRCC, Philips and GE met with FCC OET on January 13, 2011 to present a joint proposal for MBANS service rules. • Entire presentation and proposed service rules can be found on FCC filed comment server • Docket #08-59 (http://fjallfoss.fcc.gov/ecfs/document/view?id=7021025926) • The process • Next Step: FCC to publish draft rules for public comment Raymond Krasinski, Philips
Accomplishment at July Meeting • Reviewed CFP final proposals in response to our Call for Proposals • 3 proposals received and discussed • Reviewed Timeline • Updated to reflect shift in schedule • Proposal Comparison • Agreement on usage of terms in group discussions • Collected PHY and MAC features proposed • Descriptions • Changes to 15.4 required • Proposers agree to provide details of proposed changes in document form • More detail than a presentation Raymond Krasinski, Philips
Timeline Raymond Krasinski, Philips
Plan for Sept Meeting • Discuss proposals and address new questions • Reach consensus on key features to include in amendment • Begin drafting amendment on areas of agreement Raymond Krasinski, Philips
