Technical Summary
This document explores the issues involved in the use of Edge
Computing resources to operationalize media use cases that involve
Extended Reality (XR) applications. In particular, this document
discusses those applications that run on devices having different
form factors (such as different physical sizes and shapes) and need
Edge computing resources to mitigate the effect of problems such as a
need to support interactive communication requiring low latency,
limited battery power, and heat dissipation from those devices. The
intended audience for this document are network operators who are
interested in providing edge computing resources to operationalize
the requirements of such applications. This document discusses the
expected behavior of XR applications which can be used to manage the
traffic. In addition, the document discusses the service
requirements of XR applications to be able to run on the network.
Working Group Summary
Was there anything in the WG process that is worth noting?
For example, was there controversy about particular points
or were there decisions where the consensus was
particularly rough?
Document Quality
Are there existing implementations of the protocol? Have a
significant number of vendors indicated their plan to
implement the specification? Are there any reviewers that
merit special mention as having done a thorough review,
e.g., one that resulted in important changes or a
conclusion that the document had no substantive issues? If
there was a MIB Doctor, Media Type, or other Expert Review,
what was its course (briefly)? In the case of a Media Type
Review, on what date was the request posted?
