Meeting Overview • 35 attendees • 30 input documents • Five (5) High Interest Subject panel sessions
Meeting Overview (2) • High Interest Subjects (Panel Sessions) • Location Services (ATIS) • Wireless access including RLANs & ad-hoc Networking (ISACC) • Mobile Multimedia Broadcast & Multicast (TIA) • Reconfigurable Radio Systems (RRS) (TIA) • Ground-based Air Traffic Management Equipment (ETSI) • Information Sharing Subjects • RF Exposure (ETSI) • Electronic Article Surveillance (EAS) & RF Identification Devices (RFID) (ETSI) • Global Ultra Wide Band (ETSI) • Radio Microphones (ETSI) • Measurement Uncertainties (ETSI) • Communications onboard Aircraft (ETSI)
GRSC-5 Overview • Presentations • Presentation of GRSC-5 Summary Report (GSC13-GRSC6-13) • Summary • Kohei Satoh, ARIB, was thanked for his presentation of this report • It was noted that there were 11 output resolutions from GSC-12 • Two (2) new High Interest Subjects were recommended for GSC-13
Location Services (ATIS) • Presentations • Contributions GSC13-GRSC6-20r1, -24 • Summary • TIA has undertaken work related to High Rate Data Packet (HDRP) • It appears that five (5) satellite systems could be fused together • OMA Location Working Group is doing core work specifying location enablers that can be used by 3GPP2 • Continue to work with the regulatory bodies that mandate accuracy requirements • Work to achieve robust specifications/standards for implementations that will handle the anticipated increase in demand for Location Services • Resolution • No resolution exists for this HIS; GRSC recommends eliminating this as an HIS
Wireless access including RLANs & ad-hoc Networking (ISACC) • Presentations • Contributions GSC13-GRSC6-08, -15 (-14, -18 for information) • Summary • There are many challenges in this area • Interference • Need to maintain and synchronize standards ensuring national and regional standards do not conflict • Need to standardize ad-hoc networks • Title of HIS should be narrowed to provide clarification • Resolution • A drafting group was charged with reviewing the Resolution regarding Broadband Services in Rural and Remote Areas starting with the baseline text contained in GSC13-GRSC6-10. Following review, the revisions were approved for submission to the closing plenary.
Mobile Multimedia Broadcast & Multicast (TIA) • Presentations • Contributions GSC13-GRSC6-16r1, -19, -25 (-17 for information) • Summary • Collaboration with this HIS is moving away from the physical layer and is moving up to the level of interaction of applications and content • This HIS is very important to GSC • Resolution • Resolution GSC12-13, Mobile Multimedia Broadcast and Multicast, was reviewed, reaffirmed without changes and will be submitted to the closing plenary.
Reconfigurable Radio Systems (RRS) (TIA) • Presentations • Contributions GSC13-GRSC6-22, -26 • Summary • Several PSOs appear to be interested in this topic • Two (2) significant reports are being worked by the ITU • Digital RF for global frequency flexibility will be a challenge to implement • Resolution • A drafting group was charged with reviewing the Resolution regarding Software Defined Radios (SDR) starting with the baseline text contained in GSC13-GRSC6-09. Following review, the revisions were approved for submission to the closing plenary.
Ground-based Air Traffic Management Equipment (ETSI) • Presentations • Contributions GSC13-GRSC6-21r1, -23r1 • Summary • ETSI reported the key challenge is that the work in the aeronautical sector requires significant co-operation efforts inside and outside of Europe • In the USA, this area is being addressed by ARINC and the FCC and does not require additional involvement • Consideration could be given to “passenger” communications • Resolution • No resolution exists for this HIS; GRSC recommends eliminating this as an HIS
Task Force Reports (1) • Presentations • Contributions GSC13-GRSC6-02, GSC13-PLEN-64r1 • IMT Task Force • At the 13th Global Standard Collaboration meeting in Boston, July 14 – 17, 2008, the participating Standard Organizations (PSO) discussed the development of IMT within ITU-R Study Group 5 in Circular Letter 5/LCCE/3 for contributions to the next Study Group 5 Working Party Structure. The PSOs understand that SG5 includes the work of all aspects of IMT (IMT 2000 maintenance, IMT-Advanced evolution and documentation, spectrum sharing studies, etc.). The group also understands the significant role the ITU has played in the success of the 3rd generation mobile radio networks being defined under ITU-R Resolution 57 (RA07). Realizing that Study Group 5 has eliminated all overlapping work between IMT and other dissimilar radio systems, the PSOs agreed: • That a dedicated working structure for IMT (currently WP5D) is desirable to continue its work with speed and expertise • To encourage to recommend to their members to respond to 5/LCCE/3, the circular letter of ITU
Task Force Reports (2) • Summary of Radio Microphone Task Force • The PSOs have met via phone and exchanged emails • Many changes in standardization have been made by ETSI • All Task Force members contacted have expressed concern with the changes from analogue to digital television and the effects on the current sharing of this spectrum by radio microphones • There is interest in learning more about ATIS’ work related to Hearing Aid Compatibility (HAC) • GRSC-6 recommends maintaining both Task Forces
World Radiocommunication Conference (WRC) Update • Presentations • Contributions GSC13-GRSC6-11, -12 • Summary • Some objectives of RA-07 include: reviewing methods and procedures related to ITU-R Study Groups, establishing SG work programme and structure, approve ITU-R Recommendations on IMT-2000 • Five (5) new or revised Resolutions were highlighted as of particular interest to GSC • Key statistics related to the event were reviewed as well as results and challenges • Expected timetable follows: • November 2007: Agenda for WRC-11 adopted in Resolution 805 (WRC-07) • November 2007: Preparatory studies started by CPM11-1 • Third quarter of 2008: Council approves WRC-11 Agenda • Third quarter of 2010: End of preparatory studies • First quarter of 2011: CPM11-2 • Fourth quarter of 2011: WRC-11
Resolutions • Output Resolutions • GSC-12-09, -14, -15, -16 were reaffirmed without discussion since they were related to Information Sharing Subjects (ISS) • GSC12-13 (MMBM) was discussed and reaffirmed without changes • As a result of revising the proposed Resolution in GSC13-PLEN-05, GSC12-08 (PPDR) has been withdrawn • Resolution GSC12-10 was reviewed, revised and approved by GRSC-6 as the Resolution to be submitted to the closing plenary for GSC approval. In its consideration to establish general coordination mechanisms within the ITS Task Force, the GRSC agreed that implementation of such recommendations would be needed prior to the next GSC in view of the high level of ITS standardization activities world-wide. • Resolution GSC12-12 was reviewed, revised and approved as the Resolution to be submitted to the closing plenary • GSC12-11 (SDR) and -17 (Broadband Services in Rural and Remote Areas) were reviewed and revised
