ETSI Standardization Activities on M2M communications Joachim Koss, ETSI Board Member
Highlight of Current Activities (1) • ETSI is • developing standards to support an M2M architecture and a set of capabilities for M2M services • promoting innovation across the industry by providing an end-to-end generic vision of the M2M communications and services The multiple vertical applications will be easily deployed in a general framework, allowing development of services independently of the underlying network
Highlight of Current Activities (2) • European Commission Mandates on • Smart Metering (M/441) • Smart Grid (M/490) • Charging of Electrical Vehicles (M/468) • Multi Vendor interoperability DEMObased on Release 1 set of specifications TC M2M is leading TC,co-ordinates all ETSITCs, which contribute
ETSI TC M2M (1) • specifies the interconnection fabric: • capillary technologies provide device-M2M network communications • has active delegates from Europe, North America, China, Korea, and Japan and currently about 30% Operators, 60% Manufacturers and 10% others • has initiated active liaisons and cooperation with many other SDOs and consortia (e.g. TIA, OMA, BBF) and in particular has close relationship to 3GPP • processes an open approach: • published and draft TR/TS are available on the public side of the ETSI server http://docbox.etsi.org/M2M/Open/
ETSI TC M2M (2) • Working Groups • Use Cases & Requirements • Architecture & Network Interworking • Protocols & Interfaces • Security Aspects • Management Aspects • Release 1 set of specifications will be approved in 11/2011
ETSI TC M2M (3) • 8 plenary meetings per year plus numerous ad-hoc meetings • several conference calls per week • constantly increasing the number of documents per meeting (250 +) • constantly increasing plenary participation (70 +) • growing membership in M2M email list (395+)
ETSI TC ERM • TG28 • has specific work items in support of additional spectrum designations for key M2M market segments: • Short Range Device standards essential for efficient capillary network deployment • Work items for wireless smart metering/smart grid systems
Strategic Direction • Identify gaps where existing standards do not fulfil the requirements • Avoid overlapping of standardization • Involve representatives across vertical market solutions and industry segments
Challenges • Multitude of technical solutions and dispersed standardization activities result in the slow development of the global M2M market, consolidation required • End-to-end view for a globally interoperable framework to facilitate Machine-to-Machine (M2M) business, flexible for enhancements • Timely availability, M2M solution fragmentation and dispersing standardization is permanently proceeding • Way to engage representatives of vertical ICT and non ICT market/industry segments (convince by benefits, collect and include their specific needs/requirements) • Create global applicable standards also meeting the specific regional and vertical segment needs (e.g. by adaptations)
Next Steps / Actions • Attract further liaisons and co-operations • Involve more M2M stakeholders • ETSI TC M2M will open Release 2 set of specifications in its October meeting
Proposed Resolution (changes) • Modifications proposed to existing Resolution GSC-15/30 Machine to Machine • Editorial update to current meeting data • Adaptation of text concerning M2M Standardization Task Force (MSTF) since it is already established • Further content enhancements • see separate document
