May 2019 doc.: IEEE 802.11-19/0752-00-00bd IEEE 1609 / 802.11 Joint Session Date: 2019-05-07 Authors: Name Affiliation Address Phone Email STE 705 PMB 154 3830 Valley Centre Dr. San Diego, CA 92130 JMC Rota Inc., IEEE 1609 Vice Chair Justin McNew justinm@jmcrota.com 310 922 4923 Submission Slide 1 Justin McNew, JMC Rota
doc.: IEEE 802.11-19/0752-00-00bd IEEE 1609 / SAE Standards Overview Applications / higher layers interface to IEEE 1609 Device Device SAE J2945/x Application SAE J2945/x Application SAE J2735 Messages SAE J2735 Messages * * (DSRC) IEEE 1609 / 802.11 (DSRC) IEEE 1609 / 802.11 Submission
doc.: IEEE 802.11-19/0752-00-00bd 1609-Compliant Protocol Stack 802.11 is used in OCB mode Bypasses traditional 802.11 association to reduce latency What PHY features from 802.11ac/ax are available without association? Security is implemented on MSDUs above the MAC Layer 2 security is not used (addressed by IEEE 1609.2) Management Plane Data Plane UDP / TCP / other 1609.3 WSMP management entities Security Services IPv6 Layer-specific Note: 1609.2 security services do not interface with the 802.11 MLME or PLME LLC 1609.4 WAVE MAC 802.11 PHY 1609.2 Submission
doc.: IEEE 802.11-19/0752-00-00bd 1609.4: Historical Purpose Develop the channel coordination features required by industry to utilize the complete frequency band (5.850 GHz to 5.925 GHz) Control channel / service channel approach, with dedicated safety channels Hide the complexity of channel switching from application developers Avoid modifying the MA-UNITDATA.request At the time of 802.11p, modifying this primitive was not considered an option Submission
May 2019 doc.: IEEE 802.11-19/0752-00-00bd 1609.4 Management and Data SAPs / Primitives Conceptually MLMEX management SAP used to manage the MLME in the context of channel switching MA-UNITDATAX data SAP used to abstract the power, rate and channel controls from the existing MAC SAP and route them through the MLMEX to the MLME Submission Slide 5 Justin McNew, JMC Rota
doc.: IEEE 802.11-19/0752-00-00bd 1609.4 and 802.11-2012 Primitives Comparison IEEE 1609.4 MA-UNITDATAX.request ( source address, destination address, routing information, data, priority, service class, Channel Identifier, Time Slot, Data Rate, TxPwr_Level, ExpiryTime ) IEEE 802.11 MA-UNITDATA.request ( source address, destination address, routing information, data, priority, service class ) The channel switching features are out of band from the MAC data SAP and abstracted by the MLMEX Submission
doc.: IEEE 802.11-19/0752-00-00bd How we did it Implementers generally modified MAC firmware to combine the 1609.4 multi-channel operation with traditional 802.11 functionality Examples: broadcast or data collection applications WAVE Short Message used for broadcast messages WAVE Service Advertisement (WSA) used to announce a service Just another MSDU from the MAC s perspective DSRC DSRC Cloud X V Host RSU OBU (802.11p + 1609) (802.11p + 1609) (RSU or OBU) (OBU) A WAVE Short Message (WSM) can be sent on any channel can be specified ahead of time (e.g. V2V safety channel) The WSA contains a WAVE Router Advertisement (WRA) in this case WSA (WRA) WSM [J2735 message] Information broadcasts are used to transmit, for example, SAE J2735 BSM & SPaT messages WSM [J2735 message] . . . Channel Switch Peer to Peer Data Exchange (IP) WSM [J2735 message] Example applications: Probe probe data collection Road weather data collection and distribution SCMS Submission
doc.: IEEE 802.11-19/0752-00-00bd Next Generation V2X Desirements IEEE 1609 supports the V2X direction of 802.11 TGbd Packet-by-packet features of interest for the MA-UNITDATA.request Selectable data rate and power Selectable mode(s) E.g. legacy and NGV mode (other modes?) Operating mode(s) features of interest Upper layers choose legacy or NGV mode (pre-configured through MLME) Let MAC / PHY choose which mode based on observed preambles / SIGNAL Other potential features improvements MAC address change feature extensions might be useful MLME-RESET was originally used for MAC address randomization (with a 2-TU time limit for a reset in 802.11p) Locally administered random MAC address is currently used Others?
