IP Working Group IP Working group
Mission:
– Define a model for resources and devices in E@H system that is abstract and independent from a specific communication technology. – Identify the communication interfaces of the E@H system and define a suitable IP based solution for these interfaces, considering already defined IP standards in the IoT domain;
Expected Results:
– Abstract model of E@H System – Specifications of an IP protocol for E@H system, possibly as an extension of a standard one
2 IP WG Scope 1/3: E@H over IP
Define a suitable IP based solution for the communication interfaces of the HAN in the current E@H system.
