Hi,

as proposed in the call I have drafted some text for the requirements summary 
of the cellular backhaul and circuit emulation .
Two new sections could be added in the TICTOC Requirement Draft: 3.1.2 
(Cellular Backhaul Requirements Summary) and 3.2.2 (Circuit Emulation 
Requirements Summary). See below.

With respect to the Circuit emulation I noticed that in the requirements table 
there is "N/A" in the frequency accuracy requirement.
 I think we should have the following text instead:
 "Same frequency accuracy as for the original TDM signal; for synchronous TDM 
signals the (long-term) frequency accuracy is 10-11, for asynchronous TDM 
signals this can be in the range of +/-50 ppm (2,048 Mbit/s) or +/-32 ppm 
(1,544 Mbit/s)."

3.1.2   Cellular Backhaul Requirements Summary
Based on table in 3.1.1, the following can be summarized for the cellular 
backhaul applications. Two families of technologies can be identified: 
*       those only requiring the recovery of an accurate and stable frequency 
synchronization signal as a reference for the radio signal (e.g. GSM, UMTS FDD, 
LTE FDD). In this case the requirement ranges between 15 ppb (Wimax) and 250 
ppb (UMTS Home Base Stations). 
This requirement is applicable on the air interface.  In practice more accurate 
frequency on the long term is required at the input of the Base Stations (e.g. 
16 ppb might be required for applications operating with 50 ppb).
*       mobile technologies that in addition to frequency synchronization, also 
need phase synchronization. This is the case for the TDD technologies such as 
UMTS TDD. The requirement in this case ranges between 2.5 microsecond (phase 
error between Base Stations) to several tens of microseconds that could be 
sufficient for some LTE TDD configurations. There is also a case (CDMA2000) 
that in addition to phase synchronization also requires the distribution of 
accurate time of day (3 microseconds max error during normal operation).


3.2.2   Circuit Emulation Requirements Summary
The Circuit Emulation application requires the receiver to recover the same 
long term frequency accuracy as the original TDM signal. The phase noise 
(jitter and wander) of the recovered signal has to be limited according to the 
relevant ITU-T recommendation (e.g. G.823).
There are no requirements on phase or time synchronization in this case.

Subject: [TICTOC] TICTOC CALL 16 APRIL 2009

Notes from the call taken by Stewart Bryant

A number of people had trouble dialing in. I think that this was because the 
dialin number is shared by two services - meetingplace and Webex. It is 
necessary to dial 3 to get to the  Webex service before dialing the call 
number. If people want I will set up a call before the next TICTOC call so that 
people can get used to the Webex system and the doc sharing tools.

We discussed the TICTOC requirements document.

The plan is to add sensors and legal time, and then to go for publication with 
the information we have.

There was some concern that the format that we had as a group chosen to use to 
present the parameters information was not easy to read, and that we needed to 
work on it.

Stewart will post a different format to the list for the Cellular case and we 
ill see if it works better.

Need to add a summary to each application section that describes our conclusion 
WRT that application.

Need to add a summary to the whole document saying what we will aim to provide 
from the protocol.

Metrology parameters need to be added - can't remember who signed up for that.

Need to add references to where we do the data for traceability.

WRT to legal Yaakov will add list of applications, pointer to some ref docs and 
some small amount of numeric data.

Stefano agreed to write the summary for the cellular and the circuit emulation 
sections.

Karen agreed to write Summary of summaries

Yaakov will provide the Sensor and Legal text

Karen will talk to Sylvana  and hopefully they will work on  completing the 
Inst and the T&M sections.

Stewart will get the info for the Networking section

Stewart will write a few lines on the Network Topology requirements

As agreed at last WG meeting next rev will be a WG draft.

Next scheduled TICTOC call will be May 7th where we will review and maybe live 
edit the requirements document.

Comments on the plan and corrections to these notes to the TICTOC list please.
