4. 4 GISFI_GICT_201203201GISIF#8, 26 - 28, March 2012, Patna GISFI#8 GICT Minutes of Meeting 3/4 Energy Efficiency related questions from Ericsson –Ericsson had few questions regarding the energy efficiency activity (related to WID on “Metrics and Measurement Methods for Energy Efficiency”) and requested the meeting to note the response of membership in the meeting minutes. The questions are: 1.Does GISFI membership agree to accept dynamic measurement methods for Base-Station (GSM voice) work in Green ICT WG as high priority? 2.Is GISFI interested in taking the leadership on dynamic measurement methods for Base-Station (GSM voice) topic? Conclusion: There is full consensus i.e. GISFI members agree with both the questions given above –Feedback expected from VNL in GISFI#9 on Base-Station configurations to be used for Indian scenarios – some configurations presented by Ericsson during GISFI#7 were not relevant for India as per VNL
