I can see some enterprise, industrial, and event (e.g. sports venue) use cases - but those seem like simple give X devices priority over Y devices sorts of scenarios. [SM] Looking at the wikipedia article on slicing I see: "Network slicing emerges as an essential technique in 5G networks to accommodate such different and possibly contrasting quality of service (QoS) requirements exploiting a single physical network infrastructure.[1][13] [...] Impact and applications In commercial terms, network slicing allows a mobile operator to create specific virtual networks that cater to particular clients and use cases. Certain applications - such as mobile broadband, machine-to-machine communications (e.g. in manufacturing or logistics), or smart cars - will benefit from leveraging different aspects of 5G technology. One might require higher speeds, another low latency, and yet another access to edge computingresources. By creating separate slices that prioritise specific resources a 5G operator can offer tailored solutions to particular industries.[14][15]: 3 Some sources insist this will revolutionise industries like marketing, augmented reality, or mobile gaming,[16][17] while others are more cautious, pointing to unevenness in network coverage and poor reach of advantages beyond increased speed.[18][19]" As expected this technique is designed to allow exactly what NN was designed to prohibit (treating packets differentially in the internet based on economic considerations*)... this is IMHO why instead of calling a spade a spade mobile carriers avoid describing this in a useful way, as it is exactly about prioritisation... IMHO that will back fire, and a better avenue would be to be open about what it enables and propose a method to restrict the potential issues. E.g. (I am making this up on the fly, so it will likely not hold up to any degree of scrutiny) by self limiting to never commit more than X% of a cell's capacity to slicing, IFF the cell is used for normal end user service at all. So admit that there is some trade-off here, limit the fall-out, and then describe why we as a society should embrace that trade-off. I am a bit sceptical about the whole car 2 car communication thing (that is cars talk to cars, not people n cars talk to people on cars ;) ), but if a Carrier believes there is value in that for e.g. accident avoidance, then tell how this requires the stricter network guarantees that (only?) slicing can deliver. Personally I still think this is not an attractive proposition, but I am not the audience for that anyway; the relevant regulatory agency and the legislative is. Regards Sebastian *) This is a (too) short condensation of the rationale of the EU for stepping into the NN debate. > From: Nnagain <nnagain-bounces@lists.bufferbloat.net> on behalf of the keyboard of geoff goodfellow via Nnagain <nnagain@lists.bufferbloat.net> > Sent: Friday, March 8, 2024 5:08:28 PM > To: Network Neutrality is back!

The number of life-saving applications enabled by this simple scheme I will describe below is huge (google CVRIA and youll get to https://www.standards.its.dot.gov/developmentactivities/cvreference) where you can spend hours or days! That said, V2X (which involves V to pedestrians, roadsides, personal devices (aka iPhones) and more) communications is absolutely dominated (by many orders of magnitude) by the following very simple scheme. Here-I-am messages (aka BSMs or Basic Safety Messages and their lookalikes) are broadcast several times every second which sends to all receivers that are in comm range, estimates of the senders kinematic state and a lot of other stuff I dont have time to go into. So the direct answer to your question is: vehicles rarely talk directly to other vehicles, and when that becomes necessary the vehicles know where each other are! That, however, is not really as relevant as knowing the layer-2 (aka MAC) addresses which also happen to be in every stream (aka every DSRC packet transmitted OTA). And yes, local area networks in cars and roadside units can be involved in which case layer-3 addresses (aka IP addresses) are also used. Naturally this technology can also be used as the first/last hop in a connecting to the internet for hundreds of other purposes, or other access technologies (google ITS station or simply think iPhone) can be and are used! FTR, the ITS station predates the iPhone! :-):-):-) There are hundreds of international standards detailing exactly how this is done, and until a year ago, there were products on the roads in the US DOING IT! Interestingly, the EU didnt fall for the con so they actually have millions of units in the field and more getting deployed every day. Here in the US, we just seem to want to get hosed by a big corporation while the government sits by and watches 50,000 people a year die on our roads needlessly. Stunningly, we (the US) are currently far behind the state of play in this space that we were in over a decade ago yes more than 10 years and billions of dollars have been wasted. Didnt have to be this way, but here we are. People needlessly die every day on the roads and that corporations market cap continues to climb! We (the US) are currently experiencing another CDMA con job (aka square peg in a round hole with lots of IPR) and no one seems to know or care.

I am a bit sceptical about the whole car 2 car communication thing (that is cars talk to cars, not people n cars talk to people on cars ;) ), but if a Carrier believes there is value in that for e.g. accident avoidance, then tell how this requires the stricter network guarantees that (only?) slicing can deliver. [RR] V2X communications for saving lives will NEVER go through ANY carriers network in spite of what you hear. There is simply no way anyone is going to pay to have BSMs broadcast 10 times a second to prevent accidents, and NO CARRIER is going to give that capacity away for free, even if they had enough to carry the traffic, which they do not by many orders of magnitude!!! More importantly, the information being exchanged does NOT require a network to get where it needs to go! The 5G hype you hear from various carriers and equipment suppliers related to V2X communications is all powerpoint BS (to make shareholders happy). And there is a ton of it out there! :-):-) RR _____ Nnagain mailing list Nnagain@lists.bufferbloat.net https://lists.bufferbloat.net/listinfo/nnagain _______________________________________________ Nnagain mailing list Nnagain@lists.bufferbloat.net https://lists.bufferbloat.net/listinfo/nnagain [-- Attachment #2: Type: text/html, Size: 21030 bytes --] ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 8+ messages in thread
