You have my approval to move the document forward.  

You should all be aware that the draft with the new registries just went to the SANA and they have yet to 
build these new registries in Beta form.  After that they can be tested.  And only after that can the 
document be published.

Cheers, Peter

Dear Thomas, Dear Peter, Dear All - 

This email is a summary of the required dispositions for space agency RIDs submitted for the publication 
of CCSDS 883.0-B-2, Spacecraft Onboard Interface Services—High Data Rate 3GPP and Wi-Fi Local Area 
Communications (Blue Book, Issue 2).

The following RIDs were submitted:
-- NASA-JSC, {Craig Biggerstaff,} 1 RID, "rp2222RIDform - Biggerstaff.txt"
-- ESA, {Ignacio Aguilar Sanchez, Giacomo DaBroi, David Fenandez Pinas}: 9 RIDs, 
"883x0p11.ESA_RIDs_v0.10.04.09.docx"
-- CESG PICS Tables updates (2); Specify either "M" or "O" but not "M/O" per Tom and CESG A.D.s for 
PICS tables in Annex A
-- CESG SANA Updates, {Peter Shames}: Required SANA updates

I have attached an updated CCSDS-883.0-B-2 draft document "v0.10.07.01 PICS+SANA Updates 
883x0p11_final_clean.doc" which includes three updates:
*	Update-01: PICS Table updates as requested: PICS Table A2.1.7 starts on page A-5 and PICS 
Table A3.1.6 starts on page A-9
*	Update-02: SANA Registry specification in Annex B: pages B-2 to B-10
*	Update-03: Updated Figure 2-1, Figure 2-2, Figure 2-4
o	Justification: Refresh the tables as was requested in ESA RID 

NASA and ESA RID Disposition
-- Each NASA (1) and ESA RID (9) RIDs were dispositioned to consensus resolution with the RID authors
-- Each ASCII RID Form has been updated with the consensus-based RID-resolution in 'From: "..." To "..." 
format' 

My proposal is to take the attached document ("v0.10.07.01 PICS+SANA Updates 
883x0p11_final_clean.doc") and disposition the JSC and ESA RIDs which are attached.

operability%20Testing%20Yellow%20Book.docx?d=w8f371868665e4b0387ae8b489b5102ec

I will send a message to the SANA operator, copying all in cc, and include the draft CCSDS-883-0-B-2 
Annex B specifications and strive to complete the registries.

Please review and let me know what additional information you may need.

Thanks for the patience, advice and guidance.

Kevin

Dear Document Rapporteur, 

The CESG poll to approve publication of CCSDS 883.0-B-2, Spacecraft Onboard Interface Services—High 
Data Rate Wireless Proximity Network Communications (Blue Book, Issue 2) concluded with conditions. 
Please negotiate disposition of the conditions directly with the AD(s) who voted to approve with 
conditions and CC the Secretariat on all related correspondence. 

CESG E-Poll Identifier:  CESG-P-2023-01-001 Approval to publish CCSDS 883.0-B-2, Spacecraft Onboard 
Interface Services—High Data Rate Wireless Proximity Network Communications (Blue Book, Issue 2) 

Results of CESG poll beginning 3 January 2023 and ending 17 January 2023: 

                 Abstain:  0 (0%)   
 Approve Unconditionally:  2 (50%) (Aguilar Sanchez, Wilmot) 
 Approve with Conditions:  2 (50%) (Merri, Shames) 
 Disapprove with Comment:  0 (0%)   

CONDITIONS/COMMENTS: 

     Mario Merri (Approve with Conditions):  Table 1-1: I recommend (not a condition) to split the table in 
two independent tables. As it is now, it may confuse the reader who, for instance, may wrongly (and 
illogically) associate “Short Range” with “Low Rate”. 

     Peter Shames (Approve with Conditions):  This is a very complicated set of standards from 2 entirely 
different protocol families.  This is viable for use by CCSDS largely because these are "familiar", 
commercially supported, protocol suites with readily available, compliant, commercial implementations. 

That said, it is not clear to me that the registries, as specified in Annex B, are sufficiently well specified as 
to allow their implementation and use.  This spec appears to assume that the 3GPP defined PLMN, 
USIM, ICCID, and other unique protocol identifiers will be assigned using 3GPP procedures and tools.  It 
then specifies, in Annex B, that new, weakly specified, registries will be setup in SANA, but there is 
nothing in the specs that state clearly how these SANA registries will be used nor how any 3GPP 
registries that might be supplied with any commercial tools that are adopted will be integrated. 

My operating assumption is that at least some of the entities that are going to utilize these 3GPP and/or 
WiFi protocols will also need to utilize CCSDS proximity or long haul protocols and those entities 
therefore will be registered in the CCSDS SANA Spacecraft and SS&A registries.  Furthermore, some or all 
of the entities using these 3GPP and/or WiFi protocols may themselves need to be registered, by the 
owning agencies, in the SANA spacecraft, SCID, or SS&A registries.  

Right now how this might occur is left unspecified. 

Conditions: 

1) Clarify how/where the key PLMN, USIM, ICCID, and other unique protocol identifiers, and the owning 
agencies, are to be assigned and managed. 

2) Define the relationships, if any, between these nominally 3GPP registries and the SANA registries. 

3) Refine the SANA registries, if they are to be preserved, such that they can adequately support the 
intended 3GPP registry functions. 

4) Describe how the SANA registires for PLMN, USIM, ICCID, and other unique protocol identifiers relate 
to the existing CCSDS Agency, Spacecraft, and SCID/frequency band registries. 

     Ignacio Aguilar Sanchez (Approve Unconditionally):  Please note for information that the attached 
ESA RIDs pointing to minor things, have just been delivered past the Agency Review deadline. They are 
expected to be dispositioned asap.
