6  Detailed Report of Discussions

Q.1/19 met during 24-26 January 2006. A total of 11 people participated in this discussion. The agreed agenda for the Q.1/19 meeting is in Temporary Document TD-296R1.

6.1  Opening Plenary

The Q.1/19 session was called to order at 9:00hrs on 24 January. The proposed agenda for the Q.1/19 plenary was approved. The terms of reference for this meeting are to continue the work as assigned to this question (former Q.1/SSG).

6.2  General Items (D29; D34; TD 249; TD 256; TD 257; TD 262; SG 13: D.310; D.311; D.312)

The following provides a brief summary of the discussions on and dispositions of input documents that were assigned to the work item “General Items.”

D-29 (Disposition of ETSI TISPAN NGN Release 1 Specifications in ITU-T NGN related Questions (and in ITU-T NGN-GSI activities))

Summary: This contribution presents the ETSI NGN Release 1 set of deliverables published or soon to be published (as they are approved or in the approval process), identifies the ITU-T Questions concerned by each document and proposes that the relevant ITU-T Questions consider the relevant ones as a basis for their ongoing activities and make normative reference to them wherever applicable and appropriate.

Q.1/19 Discussions: The group agreed to consider, during the work on Q.FNAB, the deliverables selected to SG19.

D-34 (2G Mobile Access Network Support in NGN – A Requirement for 2G Network Evolution Towards NGN for Developing Nations)

Summary: The NGN architecture (release 1), recently released by the FGNGN under SG13, talks about the interoperability with the existing telecom network technologies including the PSTN/ISDN networks and 2G PLMNs. It also talks about the network attachment with various kinds of access technologies. Moreover special emphasis has been given for the PSTN/ISDN emulation/ simulation/ evolution due to its existing ubiquitous large subscriber base.

However the fact of presence of even larger and ubiquitous subscriber base of 2G PLMN has been completely ignored for the emulation/ simulation/ evolution aspect towards NGN. This means that the existing 2G access network will not be able to attach to the NGN. Moreover neither the existing 2G subscriber will be able to roam in the NGN nor will the NGN subscriber be able to roam in the existing 2G networks.

A contribution, viz., FGNGN-ID-01073 – “NGN In-Roaming for the terminals belonging to Legacy Mobile networks (Non-IMS PLMN) - Support of MAP”, was submitted in the last FGNGN meeting.

< Discussion notes are in the version of this document behind TIES.>

This contribution is a follow up discussion on the same issue.

Q.1/19 Discussions: The group decided to consider this document in the directives to Systems Beyond IMT-2000. Nevertheless, it was discussed that the correct forum to discuss this document is ITU-T SG 13.
