IG-L2R Determine the level of interest for a project onLayer 2/Mesh Under Routing and make recommendation to WG.
Meeting Goals/Status • Review Tutorial • Present Tutorial • Liaison Updates • Next Steps • Vancouver Mtg. • Motion for WG • Minutes: doc. # 15-12-0672-00
IG-L2R Group Participation • Avg. # of Individuals Attending sessions: 13 • Avg. # of Entities Represented in sessions: 12 • Present at IG-L2R Tutorial on Mon. eve.: ~ 110
Next Steps Vancouver (in Jan. 2013) • Initial activities for SG to undertake • Lots of study work to do(see last page of mins. doc. # 15-12-0672-00
WG Motion Motion: that the 802.15 Working Group seeks approval from the 802 EC to form a study group to develop the PAR and 5c documents for Layer 2 routing in Wireless Personal Area Networks Moved: Clint Powell Second: Noriyuki Sato Vote:
Some Applications • Smart Metering (HAN and NAN) • Smart City • Environmental Monitoring • Smart Home • IoT
Characteristics of these Applications • Data flows • One-to-many, Many-to-one • Point-to-point • Topologies • Collection tree • Mesh • Adaptive • Routing strategies • Proactive • Reactive • Management • Central • Distributed • Self Organising • Communications domains • Internal • External • Multiple ingress/egress points • QoS • Low latency • Reliability • Priority of frames/routes • Power saving • Sleepy end devices • Sleepy routers • Security mechanisms needed • Beyond the MAC
Key Requirements • Reliability • Reduction of End-to-End retransmissions • Failure detection • Scalability • Node density, network size etc. • Hardware resource requirements • Behaviour at restarts • Management of flooding, multicasts • Timing, grouping etc. • Congestion • avoidance, flow control, Load balancing • Security • Provisioning, Joining
