Re: [8023-10GEPON] March minutes and presentations are online



Dear Glen,

 

Thanks for your quick comment.

 

I think that your understanding for the report processing specified in CL64.3.4 and/or CL93.3.5 is correct. However, what you are missing from the presentation are:

 

- Current CL64 and /or 93 allows the examples of implementation shown in slide 2 and 3,

which cause increased latency or unnecessary REPORT transmission.

- In order to realize both reduction of REPORT transmission and minimum latency, two solutions such as proposal#1 and 2 shown in slide 4 and 5 are proposed.

- For the proposal#1 and #2, several modifications for CL64 and/ or CL93, part of yellow highlighted in the table on slide 6, are necessary such as constant value of report_periodic_timer.

 

Regards,

Kiyoshi Uematsu

Dear Uematsu-san,

 

The decision whether to generate REPORT or not is done at a higher layer (DBA agent) which is outside the scope of the standard. According to the existing standard (clause 64) or to the current draft of clause 93, the higher layer is expected to generate a REPORT when it receives an indication of a grant with force_report=1. But there is no requirement that a REPORT cannot be sent in a grant with force_report=0. Please, note what the draft says:

 

93.3.4.5 Messages

MA_CONTROL.request(DA, REPORT, report_number, report_list)

This service primitive is used by a MAC Control client to request the Report Process at the ONU to transmit a queue status report. This primitive may be called at variable intervals, independently of the granting process, in order to reflect the time varying aspect of the network.

 

Similarly, nothing in state machine in Figure 93-25 will stop a REPORT, when it is generated by a higher layer. It will go out at the first transmission opportunity that the ONU has.

 

In case, when grants arrive with force_report=0, and data waiting in the queue, it is perfectly OK, and quite reasonable for the ONU to generate an unsolicited REPORT, as you state in the proposal #1.

 

Thus, I will repeat the comment I made in Orlando that what you propose as a solution #1 (on slide 4) is already possible and no additional changes are required to the draft. If I missed something, please let me know what specific changes to the draft are needed in your opinion.

 

Regards,

Glen

Dear 10G-EPON TF members,

 

Apology for late action, but here is outline of issues to be solved for

the Power Saving. I would like ask Forks to make comment for this.

 

1. Reduction of numbers of Report frame transmit

An attached is two ideas which describe how to realize the reduction

of numbers of Report frame transmission and summary of study items

to be discussed in TF. As conclusion of our study, in order to obtain

merits of the Power Saving, current CL93 have to be modified or specified

with additional condition though it looks like small modification.

 

<Requirement for Common>

-GRANT needs to be regularly provided by GATE MPCPDU.

-Maximize report_periodic_timer from less than 50ms to 50ms.

 

<Requirement for Proposal 1>

- Usually, set GATE MPCPDU which has Force Report flag =0.

(It is allows that OLT sends GATE MPCPDU which has Force Report flag=1.)

- Specify that the ONU report processing state diagram which allows transmission of

A REPORT MPCPDU (Periodic Transmission) with maximum interval if ONU requires

no upstream traffic.

 

< Requirement for Proposal 2>

- Ignore for force report flag at ONU.

 

2. Study of Suggested Remedy for CL93

Still on going. It would be more than welcome if someone can join in

this task.

3. Other ideas for Power Saving

Kuroda san proposed the reduction of numbers of Report frame transmission,

but if there may be other ideas, please issue and discuss on reflector and

upcoming Tokyo meeting

 

Regards,

kiyoshi Uematsu

Dear Colleagues,

 

March meeting minutes and presentation materials have been posted on the web at http://www.ieee802.org/3/av/public/2008_03/index.html.

 

 

In Orlando we have reviewed 323 comments against D1.1

- Resolved: 304 (E and ER were processed in bulk)

- Withdrawn: 9

- Deferred: 10

 

The resolved comment report will be posted by the end of this week.

 

Our next meeting will take place in Tokyo on April 13-14, hosted by NTT. Below is our schedule in preparation for April meeting:

 

March 28:           Draft 1.2 is posted

March 29 - April 4: Commenting period

April 5:            All comments are published

April 11:           Comments with proposed responses published

April 13-14:        Comment resolution during April Interim meeting

 

In addition to commenting on draft 1.2, we identified the following big ticket items:

 

1) Damage threshold values ad hoc - Frank Effenberger

2) Mathematical analysis of impact of FEC codeword invalidation

   - Expected post-FEC BER - Seiji Kozaki

   - Probability of receiving a corrupted frame - Raymond Leung (tentative)

3) Analysis of Tx and Rx PCS delay - Eric Lynskey

   - Impact of IDLE insertion

4) Clause 64 ad hoc - Marek Hajduczenia

5) Jitter ad hoc - Ryan Hirth

6) FEC test vectors - Jeff Mandin

7) Power saving proposal - Kiyoshi Uematsu

 

The ad hoc leaders listed above will make separate announcements on the reflector, outlining the issues to be solved and plan of work. If you are interested in participation in one or more of these discussions, please contact corresponding ad hoc leader listed above.

 

 

Detailed information about April meeting can be found here: http://www.ansl.ntt.co.jp/Interim_Meeting/index.html

 

Please note that registration is required to attend the meeting. Registration deadline is April 10th, 2008.

 

 

 

Regards,
