12. doc.: IEEE 802.15-15-0036-01-0dep Submission CASE 1: New innovative technologies for driving safety and collision avoidance need more reliable and secure wireless links for remote sensing and controlling. Current focused collision avoidance radar may be extended to inter-vehicle wireless networks exchanging useful information to avoid collisions and keep safe. Responses to CFI Slide 12Jussi Haapola (CWC/UoO) January 2015

13. doc.: IEEE 802.15-15-0036-01-0dep Submission No technical details presented in this case, need to inquire details. Comments on Case1 Slide 13Jussi Haapola (CWC/UoO) January 2015

14. doc.: IEEE 802.15-15-0036-01-0dep Submission CASE 2: Internal wireless networks inside a car. In a driver and passenger room of car, wired connection of air conditioner, audio/video system, power windows etc. can be easily replaced with wireless because requirement for reliability of the network is not tough. In an engine space, however, brake, controller, and acceleration and other mission controlling systems need quite higher reliability, so wireless seems no safer than wired. Slide 14Jussi Haapola (CWC/UoO) January 2015

15. doc.: IEEE 802.15-15-0036-01-0dep Submission Non-mission critical solutions are targeted here Again, no technical details from which to derive information Need to inquire specifics. Comments on Case 2 Slide 15Jussi Haapola (CWC/UoO) January 2015

16. doc.: IEEE 802.15-15-0036-01-0dep Submission CASE3: Factory automation in car assembly. Weight of cables and restrict of mobility for sensing and controlling with current wired networks may be solved by wireless networks if reliability and robustness against any interference in a noisy factory environment can be guaranteed. Slide 16Jussi Haapola (CWC/UoO) January 2015

17. doc.: IEEE 802.15-15-0036-01-0dep Submission Lack of technical details prevents analysis of case feasibility. Need to inquire technical details. Comments on Case 3 Slide 17Jussi Haapola (CWC/UoO) January 2015

18. doc.: IEEE 802.15-15-0036-01-0dep Submission CASE 4: In case to apply for controlling signals for remote industrial robots. Currently a teaching box and robot controller has been connected with wire but it should be replaced with wireless because of no need of cable and then no need to maintain a cable. An operator can move with teaching box freely anywhere. Slide 18Jussi Haapola (CWC/UoO) January 2015

19. doc.: IEEE 802.15-15-0036-01-0dep Submission No technical requirements presented. Need to inquire technical details. Comments on Case 4 Slide 19Jussi Haapola (CWC/UoO) January 2015

20. doc.: IEEE 802.15-15-0036-01-0dep Submission CASE 5: In case to apply for controlling sensors and actuators at manufacturing line in a factory. Wireless controlling results in no need maintenance of cable, no need of cable space, and reconnection according to reordering the process. Slide 20Jussi Haapola (CWC/UoO) January 2015

21. doc.: IEEE 802.15-15-0036-01-0dep Submission Have you tried wireless solutions? -What worked and what did not (be specific). Although I have evaluated a basic trial with primitive hard sets, I could not get satisfied results. What is missing with what you tried? -What are the essential performance requirements for your applications’ communications link, whether that link is wired or wireless? In both wired and wireless cases, strict requirement for the solution is not so easy to satisfy such as a period of cyclic operation signals such as 500micro seconds, real time response less than some 10micro sec., communication reliability with PER less than 10 to the -6th. Analysis of Case 5 Slide 21Jussi Haapola (CWC/UoO) January 2015

22. doc.: IEEE 802.15-15-0036-01-0dep Submission Real-time requirements of this case are severe, even for wired links. Need to have more detailed discussions with the case proposer to get more details and identify if criteria can be loosened. Comments from Case 5 Slide 22Jussi Haapola (CWC/UoO) January 2015

23. doc.: IEEE 802.15-15-0036-01-0dep Submission Case 6: Creating a wireless sensor network inside the car is of high interest to save weight and simplify production. Slide 23Jussi Haapola (CWC/UoO) January 2015

24. doc.: IEEE 802.15-15-0036-01-0dep Submission Need more details to identify if a new standards effort is required. Comments on Case 6 Slide 24Jussi Haapola (CWC/UoO) January 2015
