Re: [STDS-802-3-EPOC] Evaluation Criteria and Requirements Ad Hoc Minutes
Duane,
First it would need to demonstrated that such a symmetry can be achieved
with such a tight tolerance (I cannot even think or where to start to
guarantee something like that), and only then draw conclusions on what the
synchronization / frequency tolerance should be. Putting requirements into
our project which are either system level requirements or have no evaluation
as to their impact on the complexity / cost / performance of what we are
trying to do, is just asking for trouble.
Let?s not put the cart before the horse.

Marek,
I agree with you that this is a system level specification. But I think we
need to develop PHY level specifications that ensure a system can meet this
level of synchronization. I don?t think this will be much beyond adding a
requirement that EPoC US path and DS path within a PHY have a symmetrical
delay within some bounds (such as ± 1 or 2 TQ ). While it is true that we
didn?t do this for EPON we may have gotten lucky. If it is relatively easy
to accomplish I think such a requirement is in order.
Best Regards,
Duane

Minutes
Steve,
I?d like to request that the minutes reflect concerns Leo and I brought
forward in relation to the frequency and synchronization precision
requirements. We believe these are not PHY specific requirements, but system
level requirements. If such a requirement does find its way into PHY spec,
there is no way to verify it separately, i.e., nobody measures what part of
the system level precision budget is consumed in PHY alone.
I?d also like to have it recorded in the minutes (as mentioned on the call)
that EPON does support mobile backhaul services with *no* requirements of
this type thrown into the PHY specs.
Furthermore, I believe it was also mentioned that such a requirement would
overly burden devices that are not expected to carry mobile backhaul
services. However, in the PHY spec it is not possible to distinguish one
from another (there is just a PHY), given that 802.3 does not provide
product specs. Such system level requirements should be brought forward to
the group that deals with a system level design.
Regards
Marek
