Title: IEEE P802.11 - LIGHT COMMUNICATION TASK GROUP
--- This message came from the IEEE 802.11 Chairs' Advisory Committee Reflector ---

IEEE P802.11 - LIGHT COMMUNICATION (LC) TASK GROUP (TG) - MEETING UPDATE


Status of IEEE 802.11 Light Communication TG

Nikola Serafimovski (pureLiFi), Chair
Tuncer Baykas (Mediopol University), Vice-Chair
Volker Jungnickel (HHI), Technical Editor - PHY layer
Harry Bims (Bims Laboratories), Technical Editor - MAC layer

The work of the LC Topic Interest Group (TIG) and the LC Study Group (SG) has now completed with the creation of the 802.11 Light Communications Amendment - Task Group "bb".

The IEEE 802.11bb Task Group on Light Communications is focused on introducing necessary changes to the base IEEE 802.11 Stds to enable communications in the light medium - access to the approved Project Authorization Request (PAR) and the Criteria for Standards Development (CSD). The general scope for the TG is limited to:

This amendment specifies changes to the IEEE 802.11 MAC that are limited to the following: The project will also address the security of the transition between the new LC PHY and the existing 802.11 PHYs as well as the security implications in supporting Fast Session Transfer.

Background

Light Communication was a new Topic Interest Group (TIG) that started within the IEEE 802.11 working group aiming to determine the technical and economic opportunity presented by using the light medium for wireless communications. The introduction of light emitting diodes (LED) for general purpose lighting has created a growing interest in using the visible light spectrum for wireless communications.

The work of the TIG completed with the formation of the LC Study Group.

The IEEE 802.11 Working Group approved the Project Authorization Request (PAR) and Criterial for Standards Development (CSD) produced by the LC Study Group (SG) at the January 2018 meeting. Comments received from the rest of the IEEE 802 Working Groups were discussed and addressed by the LC SG in March 208. The updated PAR and CSD documents where then approved by the IEEE 802.11 Working Group and uninaimously approved by the IEEE 802 Executive Committee in March 2018. The revised documents were approved by the IEEE Standards Association Standards Board in May 2018 for the creation of the new Light Communications amendment to the IEEE Std. 802.11.

Goals

The goal of the Topic Interest Group was to determine the technical and economic opportunity presented by using the light medium for wireless communications. The goal of the LC SG was to define the appropriate scope for a potential IEEE amendment on Light Communications. The goal of the LC TG is to define the technical specifications.

It is felt that the IEEE 802.11 is the best forum to drive forward the global standardization efforts for light communications with manufacturers, operators and end customers all present druing the standardization process. The progression of this work into a TG will help users within home, enterprise and industrial environments, as well as assist manufacturers and operators to provide common components and services for IEEE 802.11 customers.
