###################################

LF Anti-trust

  • We will start by mentioning the project's Antitrust Policy, which you can find linked from the LF and project websites. The policy is important where multiple companies, including potential industry competitors, are participating in meetings. Please review and if you have any questions, please contact your company legal counsel. Members of the LF may contact Andrew Updegrove at the firm Gesmer Updegrove LLP, which provides legal counsel to the LF.

ONE Summit Demo

  • The goal is to demonstare end to end slicing from core to RAN
    • Expectations- Radio (RAN), Transport, Core slicing
    • Transport slicing (DoD/GovOps)
      • Options- 
        • GV- proposal to put GXC in UNH and connect with a pipe. This way transport is part of the soluton.
        • Hardik Jain All equipment may be installed Montreal. If so how do we proceed with Transport slicing?
        • Potential for Core (Free5GC) to be installed at UNH (per Neil).. Use Case Scenario (Neil)- Locate GXC equipment in the Kaloom lab with Kaloom UPF; this could represent a use case where you need to co-locate the UPF and RAN to get higher preformance traffic split out at an edge site. In this case the UNH lab can represent resources deeper in the network that might handle with a lower performance requirement. Demo can show slices at the Kaloom lab (edge), with core function happening in the UNH lab.
    • Secure slicing- Muddasar to lead
      • Muddasar Ahmed Detail the steps and security functionality needed at every stage of the slice life-cycle.
  • Use Case(s): what do we want to show?
    • Streaming
    • IoT (security cameras, robotics)
      • Visual inspection at the edge use case (Satish Sadagopan) - application layer, as opposed to network layer. Can be transitioned to Ultra-low lantency use case.
      • SATISH SADAGOPANprovide details 
    • Edge Computing Support (DoD/GovOps):
      • IoT Device Authentication at the Edge - include DARPA Performers
      • Traffic Routing at the Edge - 
      • Packet Filtering at the Edge - can enable device authentication at the edge
  • Core:
    • Free5GC - installed in Kaloom lab, along with GXC RAN
    • SD-Core - DARPA Performers have experience with SD-Core
    • What capabilities does the core need to have to full fill the use case(s)?

Lab Status/Upgrades

  • Lab Architecture Slides
    • Lab architecture updates based on use case functionality needed.
  • Kaloom Status-
    • Free5GC Installed - do we shift Free5GC to UNH per above?
    • GXC RAN installed
  • Hardware order status?
    • Graphic cards shipped, need to be installed
  • Software upgrades at Kaloom Lab? - Tunde to provide details
    • Currently we will do both CU and DU at same location.
    • Based on last discussion if needed we can split between UNH and Kaloom lab


Off-Week Deep Dive Meeting-  

Next Meeting Aug 16 -

  • Neil Hoff- pull in DARPA Performers to discuss: 
    • IoT Device Authentication at the Edge - include DARPA Performers
    • Traffic Routing at the Edge - 
    • Packet Filtering at the Edge - can enable device authentication at the edge
  • SATISH SADAGOPAN Visual inspection at the edge use case (Satish Sadagopan) - application layer, as opposed to network layer. Can be transitioned to Ultra-low latency use case. Automotive applications
  • Lab Architecture Slides
    • Lab architecture updates based on use case functionality needed.


Action Items (open)


Any Other Business


********** Parking Lot **************

Lab Architecture:

Lab Resources

  • UNH- Faraday cage in place.
  • Kaloom (Montreal) - Hanen, GenXcomm radio is currently at Kaloom lab. Hanen will talk with Ganesh. (Kaloom previously ran the UPF and fabric). Faraday cage in place
    • Missing radio parts- SW for RAN. If GenXcomm has this, then much easier to deploy
  • Wavelabs (India)-


Action Items (completed)


Any Other Business




  •  ONAP/Magma Integration - Service Assurance - KPI Network Slicing. This is being tracked by ONAP for Enterprise Task Force. Will come into play in the 5G SBP down the line.
