The IESG has approved the following document: - 'Static Context Header Compression over Narrowband Internet of Things' (draft-ietf-lpwan-schc-over-nbiot-15.txt) as Proposed Standard
This document is the product of the IPv6 over Low Power Wide-Area Networks Working Group. The IESG contact persons are Erik Kline and Éric Vyncke. A URL of this Internet Draft is: https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-lpwan-schc-over-nbiot/ Technical Summary The Static Context Header Compression and Fragmentation (SCHC) specification, RFC8724, describes header compression and fragmentation functionalities for Low Power Wide Area Networks (LPWAN) technologies. The 3rd Generation Partnership Project (3GPP) and the Narrowband Internet of Things (NB-IoT) architectures may adopt SCHC to improve their capacities. This I-D describes the use of SCHC over the NB-IoT architecture and provides the configuration in each case. If 3GPP adopts SCHC, then this I-D recommends some values. Working Group Summary There was no opposition but the group involvement was limited beyond a few usual suspects. The good news is that those were deeply involved in the WG products, so we chairs believe that the document is good enough for good RFC. We need a strong signal to 3GPP that we can do IPv6 on the NB-IoT non-IP data channel at little extra cost. This is the only known method to achieve this. Document Quality There are no known implementation. A liaison statement to 3GPP [1] was sent for action, i.e., review the I-D at the IETF Last Call stage.
