Wednesday 802.24.1 Smart Grid TG802.1 TSN Joint Working Session Tim Godfrey, EPRI
Update on TSN white paper • Notes from July: • Leads for developing text contributions: • Janos Farkas – section on “Describe how TSN works” • Maik Seewald – section on “Understand IEC 61850 activities and relationships” • Karl Weber – section on DER and stabilizing networks with reactive power control. • Rodney Cummings – “how TSN features make use of time sync protocols” • Updated version after initial merge of Norm Finn contribution • 802.24-17-0006r10 • Norm’s text in purple • “How it works”, “Appendix 1 – Standards Summary” • Maik’s text contribution re-inserted • Challenge is reducing excellent content to more manageable size for this white paper. Tim Godfrey, EPRI
Next Steps • Continue merging and condensing content from Norm Finn • Merge content related to time synchronization • Other text contributions from 802.1 TSN? • Document contribution from Rodney Cummings possible • Review IETF DetNet use cases – incorporate others as appropriate • Teleconference in January • January Interim not all-802. • Another updating cycle before March plenary? • 802.1 interim is Jan 22-26. • Plan on call week of Jan 29 (follow up and announce on reflect) • Avoid Tuesday and Thursday mid-day EST Tim Godfrey, EPRI
