The Companys activities include the following major initiatives: (a) Strategy and Innovation The Strategy and Innovation team is focused on developing new innovations, performing analysis projects, and engaging the technology startup community. This group researches the technologies themselves, along with the economic and market viability of the technologies both in terms of unit costs and competitive alternatives. The group sponsors and promotes the identification and development of innovations that can deliver market and technological breakthroughs. The focus of the innovation work in the group is the pursuit of ideas with transformational market potential in the next three to eight years. (b) Wired Technologies Wired Technologies activities relate primarily to wireline communications, defined as communication technologies which are dependent upon a wire or cable to facilitate the transfer of information from one location to another. Wireline communications is a broad category that, for purposes of Wired Technologies, encompasses fixed network infrastructure in both the access network and in home network. Access network wireline communications includes the development of specifications and solutions for DOCSIS 3.1, Full Duplex DOCSIS, Distributed Access Architectures, Proactive Network Maintenance, point-to-point coherent optics, and passive optical networking (PON). In home networking activities focus on the use of Multimedia over Coax Alliance (MoCA) technologies or other solutions for delivering Ethernet over coaxial network (EoC). Wired Technologies also focuses on solutions related to backhaul and front-haul to and from wireless access points. (c) Wireless Technologies Wireless Technologies activities focus on driving the technology development of wireless technologies for the cable ecosystem in particular and the wireless ecosystem as a whole. Wireless technologies currently of focus include Wi-Fi, 3G/4G/LTE, and 5G technologies, in addition to emerging wireless technologies in the Internet of Things (IoT) sector. Wi-Fi efforts are focused on improving the Wi-Fi experience for both end-users and cable operators through support of industry initiatives, including Carrier Grade Wi-Fi, Passpoint, and HotSpot 2.0. In addition, there is focus on integration with mobile technologies such as Wi-Fi First, in which the Wi-Fi link is the preferred method for broadband and voice connectivity. The primary area of focus for mobile wireless technologies is on driving mobile technologies into the unlicensed band and driving coexistence features into the technology to facilitate fair sharing of the unlicensed spectrum with incumbent technologies such as Wi-Fi. 5G wireless research based on millimeter wave technology targeting low latency multi Gbps wireless performance is also a significant focus area, including the feasibility of using fixed 5G technologies to deliver high-speed data services to end-users. Additionally, network convergence between wired and wireless technologies is a growing focus area, with the goal of driving enhancements and capabilities into wired infrastructure and leveraging the wired infrastructure to enhance the capabilities and performance of mobile networks. (d) Security Technologies Security Technologies leads a number of technical projects aimed at enhancing the security of services delivered by cable operators. These projects include maintaining and improving the CableLabs Public Key Infrastructure (PKI), which allows cable operators to authenticate devices connected to their networks and enables the secure delivery of cable services to subscribers. It also includes improvements to the security controls in DOCSIS, consumer and medical IoT security, new home and business network architectures to improve security, distributed denial of service and botnet mitigation technologies, and information security data sharing. Security Technologies investigates emerging security technologies, including blockchain applications, software-defined networks, network function virtualization (SDN/NFV), image security integrity, enhancements to PKI protocols, and cryptographic research. A strategic goal of Security Technologies is to continually improve the security of cable voice, video, data, and Web services through innovative and standards-based security solutions. (e) Software The Software team is engaged in two fundamental sets of activities: 1) software development that supports the project activities of the Wired, Wireless, Security, and Innovation Office engineering teams and 2) engineering infrastructure projects or open source initiatives to provide tools, systems, and software that further the overall goals and capabilities of CableLabs engineering departments and its members.
