NAN Applications
Primary Utility Applications• Smart Grid Networks
• Advanced Metering• TOU (time of use metering)• Demand Response
• DA: Capacitor Banks, Switch Reclosers, Faulted Circuit Indicators…• Reduce technical line loss. Tuning--power quality.
• Outage Management; Restoration• Many more…
Other Target Applications• Oil Fields and Platforms• Agriculture
Synergistic Applications• Industrial Wireless (e.g., WiHART; ISA100.a)• Home Area Networks (e.g., ZigBee)• Smart Cities

The Market
It’s BIG.
• 90M meters under RFP over the next few years… …in North America alone
• Add in transmission and distribution devices
• Legislation could recognize “communications obsolescence”
Multiplier Effect
• Cost effective, reliable networking to the meter == increased Home Area Network deployments == more 802.15.4
• Ubiquitous NAN fabric == cost effective Smart City Networks == more 802.15.4
• Ubiquitous NAN fabric == more backhaul points == more 802.16 and 802.11

Addressing the Market Today
A Taxonomy
• Mesh networks• 900MHz FHSS• 2.4GHz
• Tower Based, Star Topology• Some in licensed spectrum• Some proposing WiMAX
• Powerline Carrier• Low-speed• Broadband over Powerline
Constraints
• Cost effective: a relative term• Ubiquity• Reliable• “Sleepiness”, mobility, and ‘way cheap’ are NOT constraints
Goldilocks?

Why Standards? Why IEEE?
• Customers (utilities) are asking for them
• De-risk purchasing decisions for utilities, regulators, and RATEPAYERS
• Commoditization: good for utilities and RATEPAYERS
• It’s the Law. Or Becoming the Law. • Energy Independence & Security Act of 2007 (US)• DoE and NIST looking to IEEE
• Arguably, we need something to do besides our day jobs!

Summary
Market == BIG. Very Big.
The Challenge of Scale == Technically Interesting
Societal Good• Environment. Carbon reduction.• Energy independence• More efficient economies
Time constrained. A sense of urgency.
A rare confluence.
