BPL PAR • The Communication Society has sponsored a PAR for broadband over power line. • The PAR has been distributed to the EC reflector • Several issues have been raised concerning this PAR • In order for the technology to be bridgeable they would need to participate in 802.1 • There is potential interference from BPL that could affect the wireless 802 standards
Meeting to Discuss BPL PAR • We held a meeting to discuss the BPL PAR at the chair’s request • Attendees:
Meeting Summary • Paul expressed some of his concerns about the BPL PAR • Barry O’Mahony gave a presentation on “US BPL Regulatory Status”, 19-05-0009r0 • Carl Stephenson showed a video demonstrating the effect of interference from BPL on amateur radio • Discussed recommendations to Paul on his comments on the BPL PAR
Recommendation to Paul on BPL PAR 13 Scope of Proposed Project • The scope of the project is too broad. The PAR should be broken into at least two individual PARs for first/last mile and in-premises distribution. • The PAR does not address coexistence with IEEE 802 standards. Please add the following text to the Scope of the project “The standard will coexist with IEEE 802 standards.” 21 Additional Explanatory Notes • The statement regarding the liaison with IEEE 802 needs to be reworded. Please change it to say “It is the intension of the group to establish a liaison with project IEEE 802 to facilitate sharing of information regarding network architecture and coexistence.”
Final Recommendation • The 802 Architecture Committee recommends that the LMSC join the BPL sponsor ballot, since it will be using Entity Voting
