ETSI

The goal is to introduce the common and generic aspects of the societal and technical pillars to achieve sustainability objectives behind the deployment of smart new services within the IP network of a single city or an association of cities administratively clustered.

The present document addresses the opportunities and challenges offered by the use of lamp-posts to provide facilities supporting services required by sustainable digital multiservice cities and communities.

Defining the Global KPIs for HFC Access networks and describing how the Global KPIs are to be applied.

Many companies are running studies on estimating energy performance of future radio access networks (RAN) deployment. In this work item we want to find methods and best practice to assess energy performance (Energy Consumption, Energy Efficiency) of a future RAN deployment . The work will start with collecting important preconditions as traffic aspects (growth, new traffic classes, potential disruption), collection of energy efficiency/saving solutions and strategies and energy issues in current networks. Network energy performance will be assessed based on set of scenarios including different solutions. The time period is 2020, optionally beyond and 5G impact. Energy consumption and efficiency definitions from ES 202706 and ES 203228 are preferred.

Establish a new energy efficiency measurement methods and metrics to support NFV scenarios, such as IMS and EPC, to define measurement methods for: 1) VNF, 2)Server, 3) NFVI(NFV Infrastrucutre) including HW and hypervisor. A similar work item will be also proposed in ITU-T SG5 for having common deliverables. NOTE: the work will look on Network Function Virtualization(NFV) transformation that will dramatically change telecom network architecture with decoupled software and hardware. Actual available Energy efficient measurement methods of traditional all-in-one telecom equipments will be not directly suitable for NFV components (e.g. Virtualized Network Functions (VNF), hypervisor hardware, Management and Orchestration) from different vendors.

Enhancing the energy efficiency measurement method for RBS

This TR is an initial study about metrics and methods of measurements for the energy efficiency of 5G products and networks. This WI will prepare a TR to be considered as a basis for a future specification and not for evaluation of 5G technology.

Referential specification to define sustainable levels of Sustainable ICT Sites

The deliverable will define indicators (KPI) for Smart Cities expressing city level in terms of People, Planet, Prosperity, Governance and Propagation

Major update of definition of Technical Global KPIs for ICT Sites, data centers included.
