ETSI Standardization Activities
on M2M communications
Joachim Koss,
ETSI Board Member
Halifax, 31 Oct – 3 Nov 2011
ICT Accessibility For All
GSC16-PLEN-13
Highlight of Current Activities (1)
• ETSI is
– developing standards to support an M2M architecture
and a set of capabilities for M2M services
– promoting innovation across the industry by providing
an end-to-end generic vision of the M2M
communications and services
The multiple vertical applications will be easily deployed
in a general framework, allowing development of
services independently of the underlying network

Highlight of Current Activities (2)
• European Commission Mandates on
– Smart Metering (M/441) TC M2M is leading TC,
co-ordinates all ETSI
– Smart Grid (M/490)
TCs, which contribute
– Charging of Electrical Vehicles (M/468)
• Multi Vendor interoperability DEMO
based on Release 1 set of specifications

ETSI TC M2M (1)
• specifies the interconnection fabric:
– capillary technologies provide device-M2M network
communications
• has active delegates from Europe, North America, China,
Korea, and Japan and currently about 30% Operators,
60% Manufacturers and 10% others
• has initiated active liaisons and cooperation with many
other SDOs and consortia (e.g. TIA, OMA, BBF) and in
particular has close relationship to 3GPP
– processes an open approach:
• published and draft TR/TS are available on the public side of the ETSI server

Strategic Direction
• Identify gaps where existing standards do
not fulfil the requirements
• Avoid overlapping of standardization
• Involve representatives across vertical
market solutions and industry segments

GSC16-PLEN-13
Challenges
• Multitude of technical solutions and dispersed
standardization activities result in the slow development
of the global M2M market, consolidation required
• End-to-end view for a globally interoperable framework
to facilitate Machine-to-Machine (M2M) business, flexible
for enhancements
• Timely availability, M2M solution fragmentation and
dispersing standardization is permanently proceeding
• Way to engage representatives of vertical ICT and non
ICT market/industry segments (convince by benefits,
collect and include their specific needs/requirements)
• Create global applicable standards also meeting the
specific regional and vertical segment needs (e.g. by
adaptations)
