4. Guidelines for IEEE-SA Meetings
All IEEE-SA standards meetings shall be conducted in compliance with all applicable laws, including antitrust and competition laws.
Don’t discuss the interpretation, validity, or essentiality of patents/patent claims.
Don’t discuss specific license rates, terms, or conditions.
Relative costs, including licensing costs of essential patent claims, of different technical approaches may be discussed in standards development meetings.
Technical considerations remain primary focus
Don’t discuss or engage in the fixing of product prices, allocation of customers, or division of sales markets.
Don’t discuss the status or substance of ongoing or threatened litigation.
Don’t be silent if inappropriate topics are discussed… do formally object.
If you have questions, contact the IEEE-SA Standards Board Patent Committee Administrator at or visit
See IEEE-SA Standards Board Operations Manual, clause and “Promoting Competition and Innovation: What You Need to Know about the IEEE Standards Association's Antitrust and Competition Policy” for more details.

Tim Godfrey, EPRI

8. Industry Connections Process
IEEE-SA has created an Industry Connections activity, with an initiation process:
ICAID: Industry Connections Activity Initiation Document
References
Tutorial on IC in 802 by John D’Ambrosia
Tim Godfrey, EPRI

9. Discussion points
has been asked to consider how its work relates to Industry Connections:
Should there be a relationship between and Industry Connections?
Formal or informal?
Is there a benefit for broader connection and exposure within IEEE-SA?
Could IC help our projects with better coordination?
Tim Godfrey, EPRI

10. Publicizing White Paper Releases
Press Releases
Standards association newsletter
External press releases
Emulate what 802.1, are doing

22. White paper on TSN
Ethernet operation to provide time bounded or deterministic services.
How can this be applied in utility applications?
Substation networks
Interconnection between LAN and WAN
The requirement comes from specific applications:
Starting point was Audio/Video, and industrial automation, and now entering automotive
Now the TSN capability is application agnostic
Automotive is an emerging application – replace CAN, Flexray, etc.
There is also ring topology for redundancy
Questions:
Is utility protection application considered for TSN?
Today there is some use of proprietary real-time Ethernet variants.
GOOSE protocols
Synchrophasor applications
Tim Godfrey, EPRI

23. Plans for TSN white paper
IEC TC 57 Collaboration
TSN specified in through IEC
IPV6 is also being adopted into 61850
OPC Foundation, ODBA are adopting TSN (and also use 61850)
IEC TC57 is developing profiles for use of TSN.
Profiles for application domains.
Tim Godfrey, EPRI

24. Outline of TSN white paper
Captured as r0
Tim Godfrey, EPRI

25. Development
Text contributions to the outline were requested by reflector
Review any contributions
Continue call for contributions

27. Tim Godfrey, EPRI

28. Future Opportunities Tracking (1)
white paper on IoT and P2413?
Maybe more towards completion of P2413?
Agnostic to underlying communications, but applicable to all 802 standards.
Highlight the relationship between P2413 and 802 standards.
Tim Godfrey, EPRI

29. Future Opportunities Tracking (2)
ULI
Eventually, we can explain how it relates to the rest of 802, and better integration. Well defined ways of integrating.
Take this up when there is a draft
s SMR – spectrum management resources
Can provide an input with respect to Smart Grid or IoT?
IEC 65C WG 17 dealing with coexistence management and spectrum policy
ETSI TCRRS reconfigurable radio systems
ETSI TCERM WG 41 – defining a central coordination point to handle spectrum.
Sharing and increasing coexistence and providing better QoS
Coordinate with
Action Plan:
Coordinate with ULI initiative
4s resource management is defined, but now how they are used
White paper could cover how adaptation and resource management are accomplished.
Including use of metrics for management.
Tim Godfrey, EPRI

30. Future Opportunities Tracking (3)
Are there any new utility industry activities or organizations that could benefit from a liaison to ?
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
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.
Tim Godfrey, EPRI

31. Other Future Opportunities
Monitor the LPWAN IG in to see where it goes (and links to IETF)
