M2M in ETSI
ETSI TC M2M: New ETSI Technical Committee focussed on M2M. Exists since only 7 months, but has already held 4 plenary meetings with 3 more planned this year. Participants from Europe also USA, China, and Korea.

M2M in ETSI
ETSI TC M2M has the responsibility: to collect and specify M2M requirements from relevant stakeholders; to develop and maintain an end-to-end overall high level architecture for M2M; to identify gaps where existing standards do not fulfil the requirements and provide specifications and standards to fill these gaps, where existing standards bodies or groups are unable to do so; to provide the ETSI main centre of expertise in the area of M2M; to co-ordinate ETSIs M2M activity with that of other standardization groups and fora.

ETSI TC M2M, Future Challenges

Meet the short deadlines for response to the EC Mandate on Smart Metering in close cooperation with the other ESOs (CEN and CENELEC). Define content of M2M Release 1, and create the workplan. Identify all technologies to be included in the M2M architecture and coordinate with the responsible bodies. Identify or specify open interfaces of the M2M architecture. Tackle such issues as:
Naming, Addressing and routing Service levels and QoS Security, authentification, data integrity, privacy Interconnect and interworking Testing and many more

Key Elements of M2M Architecture (1of 2)

M2M Device
A device capable of replying to requests for data contained within those devices or capable of transmitting data contained within those devices autonomously.

M2M Area Network

Provides connectivity between M2M Devices and M2M Gateways. Examples of M2M Area Networks include: Personal Area Network technologies such as IEEE 802.15, SRD, UWB, Zigbee, Bluetooth, etc or local networks such as PLC, M-BUS, Wireless M-BUS.

M2M Gateways
Use M2M Capabilities to ensure M2M Devices inter working and interconnection to the communications network.

Key Elements of M2M Architecture (2of 2)

M2M Communications Networks
Communications between the M2M Gateway(s) and M2M application (server). Can be further broken down into Access, Transport and Core networks. Examples include (but are not limited to): xDSL, PLC, satellite, LTE, GERAN, UTRAN, eUTRAN, W-LAN and WiMAX.

M2M Applications (Server)

Contains the middleware layer where data goes through various application services and is used by the specific business-processing engines. A software agent, or process by which the data can be analyzed, reported, and acted upon.

What is M2M?
In the context of this presentation M2M is considered to be Machine-to-Machine.

Also known as Man-to-Machine, Machine-to-Man, Machine-toMobile and Mobile-to-Machine too Many-to Mention

Machine-to-Machine involves communication without (or only limited) human intervention.

The human is not the input, but only(optionally) the output.
