5 Part 8-11: Wi-SUN Profile
7 FOREWORD
8 1) The International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) is a worldwide organization for standardization comprising
9 all national electrotechnical committees (IEC National Committees). The object of IEC is to promote international
10 co-operation on all questions concerning standardization in the electrical and electronic fields. To this end and
11 in addition to other activities, IEC publishes International Standards, Technical Specifications, Technical
12 Reports, Publicly Available Specifications (PAS) and Guides (hereafter referred to as “IEC Publication(s)”). Their
13 preparation is entrusted to technical committees; any IEC National Committee interested in the subject dealt with
14 may participate in this preparatory work. International, governmental and non-governmental organizations
15 liaising with the IEC also participate in this preparation. IEC collaborates closely with the International
16 Organization for Standardization (ISO) in accordance with conditions determined by agreement between the two
17 organizations.
18 2) The formal decisions or agreements of IEC on technical matters express, as nearly as possible, an international
19 consensus of opinion on the relevant subjects since each technical committee has representation from all
20 interested IEC National Committees.
21 3) IEC Publications have the form of recommendations for international use and are accepted by IEC National
22 Committees in that sense. While all reasonable efforts are made to ensure that the technical content of IEC
23 Publications is accurate, IEC cannot be held responsible for the way in which they are used or for any
24 misinterpretation by any end user.
25 4) In order to promote international uniformity, IEC National Committees undertake to apply IEC Publications
26 transparently to the maximum extent possible in their national and regional publications. Any divergence between
27 any IEC Publication and the corresponding national or regional publication shall be clearly indicated in the latter.
28 5) IEC itself does not provide any attestation of conformity. Independent certification bodies provide conformity
29 assessment services and, in some areas, access to IEC marks of conformity. IEC is not responsible for any
30 services carried out by independent certification bodies.
31 6) All users should ensure that they have the latest edition of this publication.
32 7) No liability shall attach to IEC or its directors, employees, servants or agents including individual experts and
33 members of its technical committees and IEC National Committees for any personal injury, property damage or
34 other damage of any nature whatsoever, whether direct or indirect, or for costs (including legal fees) and
35 expenses arising out of the publication, use of, or reliance upon, this IEC Publication or any other IEC
36 Publications.
37 8) Attention is drawn to the Normative references cited in this publication. Use of the referenced publications is
38 indispensable for the correct application of this publication.
39 9) Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this IEC Publication may be the subject of
40 patent rights. IEC shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.
41 IEC 62056-8-11 has been prepared by working group 14: Data exchange for meter reading
42 tariff and load control of IEC Technical Committee 13: Electrical energy measurement and
43 control. It is an International Standard.
45 Full information on the voting for its approval can be found in the report on voting indicated in
46 the above table.
47 The language used for the development of this International Standard is English.
48 This document was drafted in accordance with ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2, and developed in
49 accordance with ISO/IEC Directives, Part 1 and ISO/IEC Directives, IEC Supplement, available
50 at www.iec.ch/members_experts/refdocs. The main document types developed by IEC are
51 described in greater detail at www.iec.ch/standardsdev/publications.

53 stability date indicated on the IEC website under "http://webstore.iec.ch" in the data related to
54 the specific document. At this date, the document will be:
55 • reconfirmed,

130 3.4 Wi-SUN profile
131 3.4.1 General
132 The Wi-SUN FAN™ is designed to fulfil the requirements of a ubiquitous network, but has no
133 applications specified to operate over it, so it is application agnostic. Similarly, DLMS/COSEM
134 does not specify a single set of lower layers to support the application layer and can be
135 described as transport agnostic.
136 The Wi-SUN FAN™ specification covers layers 1-4 of the OSI stack and handles UDP packets
137 and may handle TCP packets also. DLMS/COSEM already specifies a communication profile
138 for operating over TCP or UDP on IPv4 or IPv6 networks and thus there is no need for a specific
139 adaptation layer.
140 This profile defines how DLMS/COSEM operates over a Wi-SUN network and to provide
141 COSEM set up and diagnostic interface classes needed for creating a communication context
142 over a Wi-SUN network. It is designed to be used over lossy networks and for efficiency
143 assumes the use of 6LowPAN and RPL.
144 3.4.2 Profile description
145 3.4.2.1 Targeted communication environments
146 As per Figure 1, this communication profile is concerned with interface “G”.

150 A Wi-SUN Field Area Network (FAN) is an IPv6 wireless mesh network based on IEEE
151 802.15.4, designed for critical infrastructure projects. Each Personal Area Network (PAN) is
152 designed to support thousands of router devices with a single border router. A FAN may consist
153 of many PANs allowing individual networks to scale to millions of devices, see Figure
