ITU-T Y.2060 (06/2012) FOREWORD The International Telecommunication Union (ITU) is the United Nations specialized agency in the field of telecommunications, information and communication technologies (ICTs). The ITU Telecommunication Standardization Sector

10、 (ITU-T) is a permanent organ of ITU. ITU-T is responsible for studying technical, operating and tariff questions and issuing Recommendations on them with a view to standardizing telecommunications on a worldwide basis. The World Telecommunication Standardization Assembly (WTSA), which meets every f

11、our years, establishes the topics for study by the ITU-T study groups which, in turn, produce Recommendations on these topics. The approval of ITU-T Recommendations is covered by the procedure laid down in WTSA Resolution 1. In some areas of information technology which fall within ITU-Ts purview, t

12、he necessary standards are prepared on a collaborative basis with ISO and IEC. NOTE In this Recommendation, the expression “Administration“ is used for conciseness to indicate both a telecommunication administration and a recognized operating agency. Compliance with this Recommendation is voluntary.

13、 However, the Recommendation may contain certain mandatory provisions (to ensure, e.g., interoperability or applicability) and compliance with the Recommendation is achieved when all of these mandatory provisions are met. The words “shall“ or some other obligatory language such as “must“ and the neg

14、ative equivalents are used to express requirements. The use of such words does not suggest that compliance with the Recommendation is required of any party. INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHTS ITU draws attention to the possibility that the practice or implementation of this Recommendation may involve the

15、use of a claimed Intellectual Property Right. ITU takes no position concerning the evidence, validity or applicability of claimed Intellectual Property Rights, whether asserted by ITU members or others outside of the Recommendation development process. As of the date of approval of this Recommendati

16、on, ITU had not received notice of intellectual property, protected by patents, which may be required to implement this Recommendation. However, implementers are cautioned that this may not represent the latest information and are therefore strongly urged to consult the TSB patent database at http:/

23、port technologies and in which service-related functions are independent from underlying transport-related technologies. It enables unfettered access for users to networks and to competing service providers and/or services of their choice. It supports generalized mobility which will allow consistent

24、 and ubiquitous provision of services to users. 3.2 Terms defined in this Recommendation This Recommendation defines the following terms: 3.2.1 device: With regard to the Internet of things, this is a piece of equipment with the mandatory capabilities of communication and the optional capabilities o

NOTE 1 Through the exploitation of identification, data capture, processing and communication capabilities, the IoT makes full use of things to offer services to all kinds of applications, whilst ensuring that security and privacy requirements are fulfilled. NOTE 2 From a broader

27、 perspective, the IoT can be perceived as a vision with technological and societal implications. 3.2.3 thing: With regard to the Internet of things, this is an object of the physical world (physical things) or the information world (virtual things), which is capable of being identified and integrate

Through the exploitation of identification, data capture, processing and communication capabilities,

32、the IoT makes full use of “things“ to offer services to all kinds of applications, whilst ensuring that security and privacy requirements are fulfilled. NOTE The IoT is expected to greatly integrate leading technologies, such as technologies related to advanced machine-to-machine communication, auto

33、nomic networking, data mining and decision-making, security and privacy protection and cloud computing, with technologies for advanced sensing and actuation. As shown in Figure 1, the IoT adds the dimension “Any THING communication“ to the information and communication technologies (ICTs) which alre

36、fied and integrated into communication networks. Things have associated information, which can be static and dynamic. Physical things exist in the physical world and are capable of being sensed, actuated and connected. Examples of physical things include the surrounding environment, industrial robot

37、s, goods and electrical equipment. Virtual things exist in the information world and are capable of being stored, processed and accessed. Examples of virtual things include multimedia content and application software. 6.2 Technical overview of the IoT Figure 2 shows the technical overview of the IoT

38、. Figure 2 Technical overview of the IoT A physical thing may be represented in the information world via one or more virtual things (mapping), but a virtual thing can also exist without any associated physical thing. 4 Rec. ITU-T Y.2060 (06/2012) A device is a piece of equipment with the mandatory

39、capabilities of communication and optional capabilities of sensing, actuation, data capture, data storage and data processing. The devices collect various kinds of information and provide it to the information and communication networks for further processing. Some devices also execute operations ba

40、sed on information received from the information and communication networks. Devices communicate with other devices: they communicate through the communication network via a gateway (case a), through the communication network without a gateway (case b) or directly, that is without using the communic

41、ation network (case c). Also, combinations of cases a and c, and cases b and c are possible; for example, devices can communicate with other devices using direct communication through a local network (i.e., a network providing local connectivity between devices and between devices and a gateway, suc

42、h as an ad-hoc network) (case c) and then communication through the communication network via a local network gateway (case a). NOTE 1 Although Figure 2 shows only interactions taking place in the physical world (communications between devices), interactions also take place in the information world

43、(exchanges between virtual things) and between the physical world and the information world (exchanges between physical things and virtual things). The IoT applications include various kinds of applications, e.g., “intelligent transportation systems“, “smart grid“, “e-health“ or “smart home“. The ap

44、plications can be based on proprietary application platforms, but can also be built upon common service/application support platform(s) providing generic enabling capabilities, such as authentication, device management, charging and accounting. The communication networks transfer data captured by de

45、vices to applications and other devices, as well as instructions from applications to devices. The communication networks provide capabilities for reliable and efficient data transfer. The IoT network infrastructure may be realized via existing networks, such as conventional TCP/IP-based networks, a

46、nd/or evolving networks, such as next generation networks (NGN) b-ITU-T Y.2001. Figure 3 shows the different types of devices and the relationship between devices and physical things.

The minimum requirement of the devices in the IoT is their support of communication capabilities. Devices are categoriz

48、ed into data-carrying devices, data-capturing devices, sensing and actuating devices and general devices as described as follows: Data-carrying device: A data-carrying device is attached to a physical thing to indirectly connect the physical thing with the communication networks. Data-capturing devi

49、ce: A data-capturing device refers to a reader/writer device with the capability to interact with physical things. The interaction can happen indirectly via data-carrying devices, or directly via data carriers attached to the physical things. In the first case, the data-capturing device reads information on a data-carrying device and can Rec. ITU-T Y.2060 (06/2012) 5 optionally also write information given by the communication networks on the data-carrying device. NOTE 3 Technologies used for interaction b
