P1914.1

Standard for Packet-based Fronthaul Transport Networks

 

IEEE P1914.1 Scope -This standard specifies:

1) Architecture for the transport of mobile fronthaul traffic (e.g., Ethernet-based), including user data traffic, and management and control ‚  plane traffic.

2) Requirements and definitions for the fronthaul networks, including data rates, timing and synchronization, and quality of service. ‚  The standard also analyzes functional partitioning schemes between Remote Radio Units (RRUs) and Base-Band Units (BBUs) that improve ‚  fronthaul link efficiency and interoperability on the transport level, and that facilitate the realization of cooperative radio functions, such as ‚  massive Multiple-Input-Multiple-Output (massive MIMO) operational modes, Coordinated Multi-Point (CoMP) transmission and reception.

The Project is sponsored by ‚   IEEE Communications Society/Standards Development Board (COM/SDB). For more information on this project, please contact the Chair or IEEE-SA Staff.
