3、lp progress work on global NGN standards and assist in bringing some clarity to the standardization efforts on NGN. I was told that there was an urgent need to produce globally applicable specifications in the field and coordinate global standardization; our members saw ITU as the most appropriate b

4、ody to take the lead. The timing of the request coincided with a period of intense preparation for the World Telecommunication Standardization Assembly (WTSA-04), which was held in October 2004, and which is the regular event that defines the future work of ITU-T for the coming period, in this case

5、2005-2008. But given its urgency ITU-T Members felt that initiative was needed to act quickly, rather than waiting for the mandate of WTSA. There are rules and regulations that have been built and honed over a number of years, and that are an important part of keeping the organization and the creati

6、on of standards cohesive and professional to meet the needs of Member states as well as industry/Sector Members in a timely way. ITU-T is an organization with flexibility, transparency and fairness. Operators from around the globe are implementing NGN strategies and plan to invest billions of dollar

7、s in the rollout of new Internet Protocol (IP) based networks. The operators, systems vendors and government members of ITU-T believe that international standards will facilitate a global market for systems, lowering costs and providing for mix-and-match implementation and global interoperability. W

8、ith all of this in mind, with the advice and support from Sector Members, I took the unprecedented step of setting-up, under my own name, as the Director of TSB the ITU-T Focus Group on NGN (FGNGN) to work on global standards for NGN. The work of the new group was to build on existing fixed/mobile c

9、onvergence architecture to provide transparency between fixed and mobile networks. Work would progress in the areas of quality of service (QoS), authentication, security and signalling. Since the creation of FGNGN there have been intensive meetings, more or less every two months. We have seen a grow

10、th in participation and the number of contributions. I am very pleased with the progress and the results achieved by the FGNGN. These first results will provide the building blocks on which the worlds systems vendors and service providers can start to make this monumental shift to NGN. Noting the pr

11、ogress we have made, and the new situation in which we are today, we decided to further strengthen our work with the NGN-Global Standards Initiative (NGN-GSI), the next phase of our NGN work, which is I believe a judicious move to lead and to enhance ITU-T efforts on NGN study. I welcome the fact th

12、at industry and Member states entrusted this work to ITU-T. Now I am proud to present here the groups achievements. This publication represents an impressive accomplishment in such a short time. It is my pleasure to provide here this material along with information on the future direction of NGN wor

13、k in ITU-T. I sincerely hope that you will find this publication useful. November 2005 Houlin Zhao TSB Director ii iii Foreword Chae-Sub Lee, Chairman, ITU-T Focus Group on Next Generation Networks (FG NGN) It took more than one and half years to get a globally agreed definition on NGN, with the JRG

14、 (Joint Rapporteur Group) on NGN starting work in October 2003 in ITU-T SG13. This was one of the hardest jobs during my almost 20 years of international standards activity. From the beginning, work on NGN brought a lot of questions rather than visions and solutions. I believe many of these question

15、s related to the name “Next Generation Networks”. Throughout the whole of my standards career, it was the first time I have come across this strange name. How does one identify “Next Generation”? For me this may mean, for example my children or maybe my grandchildren. Furthermore, from the network p

16、oint of view, what meaning is implied in this kind of generation concept? Bearing in mind all these difficulties and issues, FGNGN was launched 23 June 2004 under the responsibility of the TSB Director, Mr. Houlin Zhao with his strong futuristic vision conveying also the ITU-T members ambitions. As

17、expected, the sailing at the start was not smooth and with many questions, concerns, worries and even objections, it felt like a hurricane. This situation continued until the 2ndmeeting, but the positive spirit and strong ambitions of members gave us hope and confidence that we would reach our objec

18、tive. FGNGN started its work mainly with several drafts which were studied and transferred by the JRG on NGN. Now it has achieved 18 approved deliverables and on-going drafts which will be developed further through relevant Study Groups. FGNGN deliverables cover mainly seven working areas which are

19、clearly given by the terms of reference as fundamental framework areas of NGN; services and capabilities, functional architecture and requirements, quality of service (QoS), control aspects, security issues, migration of current networks into NGN and future packet based network requirements. FGNGN w

20、as made-up of seven working groups according to each study area, with three technical leaders in each group. Its final output was a total of 30 documents. A few of them were already approved during the meetings and transferred to the relevant Study Groups for their further consideration. Deliverable

21、s are classified by release concepts with Release 1, beyond Release 1 and Release independent. This book contains the deliverables with their status indication clearly noted for example; approved (A) by the FGNGN for further consideration by relevant ITU-T SG, stable (S) and draft (D) from the FGNGN

22、 point-of-view. These deliverables cover all seven working areas. So I hope this book will help readers with answers to questions similar to those I had had before. During the 18-month life-time of FGNGN, nine meetings (one meeting at every two months and in some case within four weeks) were organiz

23、ed and we received more than 1,200 input documents and also had more than 1,400 participants. We normally extended our meeting time and frequently sacrificed national holidays of many members. With all our members efforts and sacrifices, especially with the best expertise of our technical leaders an

24、d vice chairmen, and an industrious and efficient TSB FGNGN secretariat we successfully reached our goal. I really want to share my great thanks and appreciation with our members, especially technical leaders and vice chairmen and the TSB secretariat. And especially thanks to God for these achieveme

25、nts and also for giving us two babies to our members during our meetings: one to a technical leaders family and another to an editors family in Europe and Asia respectively. I believe we all in FGNGN did good work for these next generation babies. November 2005 Chae Sub Lee Chairman of FGNGN iv v TA

Next Generation Network (NGN): a packet-bas

38、ed network able to provide telecommunication services and able to make use of multiple broadband, QoS-enabled transport technologies and in which service-related functions are independent from underlying transport-related technologies. It offers unfettered access by users to different service provid

39、ers. It supports generalized mobility which will allow consistent and ubiquitous provision of services to users. And this recommendation further specifies key features of NGN as following: Packet-based transfer Separation of control functions among bearer capabilities, call/session, and application/

40、 service Decoupling of service provision from transport, and provision of open interfaces Support for a wide range of services, applications and mechanisms based on service building blocks (including real time/ streaming/ non-real time services and multi-media) Broadband capabilities with end-to-end

41、 QoS (Quality of Service). Interworking with legacy networks via open interfaces Generalized mobility Unfettered access by users to different service providers A variety of identification schemes Unified service characteristics for the same service as perceived by the user Converged services between

42、 Fixed/Mobile Independence of service-related functions from underlying transport technologies Support of multiple last mile technologies Compliant with all Regulatory requirements, for example concerning emergency communications, security, privacy, and etc. 2 Overview of FGNGN activities In 2003 a

43、Joint Rapporteur Group bringing together experts from across all Questions of Study Group 13 was formed. The main subjects studied by the Joint Rapporteur Group on NGN (JRG-NGN) were: NGN requirements, the general reference model, functional requirements and architecture of the NGN, and evolution to

44、 NGN. The JRG-NGN produced two fundamental Recommendations, viz. Y.2001, General overview of NGN and Y.2011, General principles and general reference model for next generation networks. On 7 May 2004, the ITU-T established a new Focus Group under the ITU-T Director to address the urgent need for ini

45、tial global standards for Next Generation Networks (NGN). 2.1 Terms of Reference of FGNGN Mandate of FGNGN is identified clearly through ITU-T TSB Circular 236 (Geneva, 18 May 2004) and Addendum 1 as follows: The Focus Group on Next Generation Networks (FGNGN) is mandated to create its deliverables

46、within 12 months concerning the following three topics: A nomadicity architecture (for example, based on 3GPP/3GPP2 IMS) that includes support for broadband xDSL access. QoS in the xDSL access, Authentication and Security issues need to be resolved 2 NGN Focus Group Proceedings Part I Current NGN ac

47、tivities within SG 11 and SG 13 on QoS Signalling include IP QoS aspects and other NGN signaling related requirements Other NGN-related documents that have been initiated within the JRG-NGN, but have not been CONSENTED by June 22, 2004. Based on this, some of modification was made at the 2ndFGNGN me

48、eting at Geneva, Switzerland, 19 - 23 July 2004. Final agreed ToR of each working areas are shown as follows: 2.1.1 NGN Functional Architecture This study will describe the functional and structural architecture of the NGN using the generic definitions, symbols and abbreviations that are defined in

49、related ITU-T Recommendations. This study will include xDSL and IMS Architectures. The work will take account of the NGN work already undertaken in ITU-T and other organizations e.g.: Draft Rec. Y.NGN-Overview, Y.NGN-SRQ and Y.NGN-GRM from Q1/13 and Q11/13 Draft Rec. Y.NGN-FRA : Functional Architecture of NGN from Q1/13 IMS release 6 : 3GPP, MMD : 3GPP2 xDSL Architecture : Q C/16, DSL Forum TR 058 and 059 2.1.2 Nomadicity and Mobility This study identifies requirements about various t
