Tuesday: 802.24.1 SG TG Tasks Discussion on 802.16/802.24 Tutorial session on 802.16s amendment 7:30pm Regency V Discussion on 24.1 liaisons and relevant industry activity SGIP OpenFMB (is there any opportunity – maybe not) SGCG in Europe (ETSI group parallel to SGIP) Useful Output: Identify the use cases that the standards serve, and provide them to the industry. That can then define who is an appropriate liaison Case in point – deterministic Ethernet – how does it apply to utility industry? IEC has some requirements for realtime (in TC57) and also 61850 Need to educate and inform liaisons to gather needs and requirements with respect to IEEE 802 projects. Identify the tools we have available, and present the available toolbox. P2030.5 Liaison Report F2F WG meeting in Santa Clara next month – will invite utilities as observers, and invite CPUC. Sponsor Ballot upcoming. 3rd week in February (Tuesday/ or Wednesday evening TBD) Development of Sub-1 GHz White Paper Draft updated: 24-15-0029r3 Tim Godfrey, EPRI

802.16/802.24 Tutorial: Proposed 802.16s Narrowband Project 802.16 and 802.24 conducted a joint tutorial on the vertical applications of 802.16 in utility grid communication and field area networks. This tutorial highlights the need for an amendment of 802.16 (the 802.16s project) to accommodate specific narrower channel spectrum allocations. The presentations are available as 24-16-0001-00-0000 Tim Godfrey, EPRI

Student Paper Competition January 2016 Actions Establishing a judging committee IEEE (Tara Gallus) will receive papers from submission email. IEEE will anonymize the papers IEEE will distribute to judging committee lead (James Gilb) James will distribute to judges Judging Committee Volunteers Ben Rolfe Jeritt Kent Ludwig Winkel Ruben Salazar Communication to judging team by email. Papers to be distributed as they are submitted. If number of submissions is low, all papers will be given to all judges. If a larger number is more than 5 and less than 15, they will be divided among judges. If a large number of papers are submitted (>25) we will find more judges. Tim Godfrey, EPRI

Student Paper Competition Development of judging criteria Validation that submission requirements have been met Compliance with defined scope and relevance to IEEE 802 Clarity, Conciseness, unique or differentiated idea. (are there any IEEE resources for this?) Scoring Each aspect on a 0-10 scale Follow Published judging criteria document 24-16-0004r0 Tim Godfrey, EPRI

Paper Judging Timeline Deadline Tuesday March 1. Papers distributed to judges March 4 Judges responses by March 11 Preliminary discussion of papers and review at March meeting. Final decision by teleconference in April Tim Godfrey, EPRI
