Folks, Please let me know I need to add to or revise the meeting notes below. Curtis 06/23/2016 IEEE 802.3ca 100G-EPON Task Force Work Items and Socialization
·
Review of Patent Policy.
o
Chair read the Call for Potentially Essential Patents – no replies.
·
Four Wave Mixing (Johnson)
o
“A few people had volunteered to investigate this issue before the July meeting. Is there any progress to report? It would be great if this could be discussed at next week's consensus-building
call.”
o
Eugene, Phil, Dekun volunteered from the Whistler meeting, but are not currently in attendance to report activity.
o
Ed Harstead (Nokia) indicates some engineers from Nokia are looking into this.
o
Shawn E and John J have done some analysis.
·
PMD Call for Contributions (Effenberger)
·
100G-EPON Configurations (Kramer)
o
Comment from Bill that the matrix showing possible configurations may need to be extended to show 25G/10G option.
o
Another comment from Bill was that many other options are possible with upstream capacity exceeding the downstream capacity, but that these options are probably not very useful.
o
General agreement that the standard should fully specify 100 Gb/s operation and shall enable “subset” implementations for various components.
§
Market will decide which components make sense when assembled together into a system, and which don’t
o
Proposal to formalize this view via a vote at the next meeting, but the exact wording of the motion was not discussed.
·
