HGI’s Mission
 The HGI’s core mission is to translate Broadband
Service Providers’ (BSPs) near and mid-term
service plans into published requirements for
home network equipment and technologies
 We accomplish this by
• Leadership by the service providers in setting out
service requirements
• Strong collaboration by the vendor members in
developing specifications that support the service
requirements
4
Isn’t HGI just about Home
Gateways?
 No, the scope of HGI has been extended to cover digital
home building blocks
 HGI ecosystem
• Centred around the home gateway
• Includes many elements of the digital home from the access
networks to home networking technologies
 The membership base includes suppliers from around the
globe, and a service provider base concentrated in Europe
and Asia.
 HGI invites all companies from around the globe to join and
contribute to this ecosystem
5
Scope of HGI work
 Building the End-end Picture
• Services requirements & use cases
• Diagnostics and management requirements
 Requirements Documents used by Telcos during procurement
• Home Gateway Residential Profile
• Network Termination device
• Home Network infrastructure device
• Common power supply
• Software execution environment
 Outreach of agreed requirements to industry bodies

“Green” outreach
 Cooperation among SDO is key in making a real impact
• HGI provided detailed input into the models and power
targets for EU Code of Conduct on Energy
Consumption of Broadband Equipment (including
V4 during 2010)
• HGI has liaised RWD009 on requirements for Energy
Efficient HG to BBF. HGI and BBF are working closely
on all matters of energy efficiency.
• HGI has liaised RD015 on Common Power Supply to
ETSI and will encourage standardisation within ITU
• HGI has liaised energy measurement procedures from
RD011 to ETSI
9
“Green” Outreach continued
 Broadband Service Providers have a role to play in home
energy management.
• Home gateway as services and interconnect platform
• Use of broadband infrastructure
 HGI is bringing together stakeholders in the development
of RD017: Home Energy management and control service.
• Building from Beywatch and Energy at Home
• Consolidating requirements among the service
providers
• Input from Energy industry is very important

HG Performance Testing
 The HGI has set out performance requirements for HGs in its test
plan (HGI-GWD011-R3)
• QoS, multisession and routing performance
• Energy consumption
 HGI first test Event in Lannion, France September 2009
 Second HG test event in November 2010
• The performance requirements of NGA capable HG will increase
dramatically
• Routing, QoS and services with up to Gigabit interfaces
• Software execution environment
• IPv6
• Full energy efficiency test
 HGI membership required to take part

Service Diagnostics
 End-end architecture for capture of home-network
information and helpdesk intervention
 Home-network trouble
• Before it happens: monitor, log, gather topology
• After it happens: active troubleshooting
 Aspects of solution
• User context
• Event context
• Network QoS and Topology
 Downloadable diagnostics probes to HG
 NGA adds new pieces to the puzzle

Wrap-Up
 HGI thanks the CCSA for the opportunity to
discuss our work
 The long-standing relationships among HGI,
ITU. ETSI and other SDO is key to our work
 Those interested in learning more may wish
to observe an HGI meeting
• September 28 – October 1, Vancouver Canada

HGI Relationships
 ITU (SG-15, SG16, SG-5)
 ETSI (ATTM,
TISPAN, DECT,
EE, M2M )
 DECT Forum
 Broadband Forum
 Open IPTV Forum
 DLNA
 UPNP
 OSGi Alliance
 WIFI Alliance
 …and others
5/31/2016
In many cases, HGI is in dialogue with
other groups from a system point of
view, and partner organisations are
providing specialist expertise.
A key role for HGI is to develop a
system view – for example in testing,
diagnostics, and energy efficiency.
HGI work has initiated work in many
other groups
HGI relies on expertise in these other
fora and does not try to replicate what
they do
18
Liaison relationships for home
networking
HGI has developed a QoS architecture that represents real
solutions to real problems. The architecture is being
updated to include extension beyond classification based
techniques to identify services. We rely upon our
partners for comment and collaboration.
 DLNA
 UPNP
 BBF Home
 ITU SG 15
 ETSI TISPAN
