  1. 3GPP and Fixed Mobile Convergence TSG-SA presentation Stephen Hayes, SA chairman

  2. Topics to Discuss • Brief Overview of TSG-SA • Role of 3GPP in Fixed Mobile Convergence • UMA and Fixed Mobile Convergence • IMS and Fixed Mobile Convergence • Future Work • Conclusions

  3. 3GPP SA • SA = System Aspects • Technical Responsibilities • Requirements Establishment • Architecture Definition • System Devices (Security, Codecs, O&M) • Organizational Responsibilities • Project coordination • Release scheduling and planning • Working methods • Working Groups • SA1 – Services • SA2 – Architecture • SA3 – Security • SA4 – Codecs • SA5 – O&M (including Charging)

  4. Two Paths to Fixed Mobile Convergence • UMA (Unlicensed Mobile Access) • IMS (IP Multimedia Subsystem)

  5. Rel 99 Rel 4 Rel 5 Rel 6 3GPP Taking the Lead in FMC • 3GPP specified IMS as part of Rel 5 with improvements in Rel 6 • 3GPP specified UMA as part of Rel 6 • 3GPP added support for I-WLAN in Rel 6 • 3GPP is enhancing IMS to support fixed broadband in Rel 7 • 3GPP adding Voice Call Continuity in Rel 7 • Many IMS based optimizations in Rel 7 • IMS Based Multimedia services in Rel 7 Rel 7 ? 1999 2000 2001 2002 2003 2004 2005 2006

  6. UMA (Unlicensed Mobile Access) • Standardized in 3GPP GERAN • Called GAN in 3GPP • Originally developed as a way to extend coverage/reduce cellular congestion • Extends GSM call control to WLAN/Bluetooth accesses • Handset uses GSM/GPRS call control • PLMN services provided • Transparent to mobile core network

  7. UMA (GAN) Concept Cellular Access Network Private Network BSC UMA enabled dual mode handset Mobile Core Network GANC IP Access Network Generic Access Network

  8. Uptake of UMA for FMC • UMA used in many early fixed mobile convergence deployments • UMA incorporated into FMCA PRDs • UMA specified as part of Packetcable 1.5

  9. IMS • SIP/SDP based session control • Protocols are access independent • Originally developed as a way to provide multimedia services in 3GPP • Greater integration with IP network • Intended for support of HPLM based multimedia applications • Basis of most NGN work

  10. IMS is Access Independent (in Theory) Non-3GPP Defined Radio Accesses 3GPP2 MDN LTE HSPA+ 802.11 HSPA 802.x TD- SCDMA IMS 3GPP Defined Radio Accesses For Packet DSL WCDMA Fixed Accesses EDGE Cable GPRS

  11. PoC Messaging GLMS Presence CSI VCC Organizations using IMS Multimedia Telephony Multimedia Telephony Multimedia Telephony Cellular Access to IMS IP Wireline Access to IMS WLAN Access to IMS Residential Mobile

  12. 3GPP coordination of IMS • 3GPP Maintains Control of IMS Core Specs • Goal is to have a single IMS • Other organizations submit requirements for additions to IMS Core • 3GPP works closely with IETF on SIP usage • Overlapping membership/common delegates • Workshops held as needed

  13. This requires enhancing IMS beyond just the needs of mobile • Example additions done for TISPAN • NAT Traversal • Extensions for ISUP compatibility • Alternative authentication methods • Border Control Functionality • Terminology Changes • However some additions also needed by mobile operators • Regulatory compliance • Emergency Call, Legal Intercept • Supplementary Service analogs

  14. Work also going on to aid CS->IMS Transition • CSI (Combinational Services) • Complement CS services with IMS services • VCC (Voice Call Continuity) • Voice handovers between IMS and CS bearers • Multimedia Service Definition • Robust interoperable multimedia telephony • Improving IMS quality • Faster session setup, improved performance, better voice quality

  15. 3GPP R7 WIDs related to IMS Multimedia Telephony (MITe) Voice Call Continuity (VCC) Combinational Services (CSI) Generic VoIP Improvements • IMS Emergency Calls (EMC1) – SA1/SA2/CT1 • Lawful Intercept for VoIP (LI-7A) – SA3 LI • System Enhancements for Fixed Broadband Access to IMS (FBI, ISE) – SA2/SA3/SA5/CT1,CT3 • Evolution of Policy Control and Charging (PCC) – SA2,SA5, CT3 • IMS Trace & E2E IMS Trace (OAM7-Trace) – SA5,CT1 • O&M Enhancements to support IMS & IP bearers – SA5 • IMS Security Extensions – SA3 • Diameter of the PDG Wi Interface (DIAMWi)– CT3 • Support of SMS & MMS over generic 3GPP IP Access (SMSIP) – SA2 • Identification of Communication Services in IMS (servID) – SA2,CT1 • Optimizations for Multimedia Telephony over IMS – SA4 • IMS Multimedia Telephony; media handling and interaction – SA4 • Characterization of Adaptive Jitter Management Performance for VoIP Services (OMTIMS) – SA4 • End-to-End Multimedia Services Performance Metrics (E2EMSPM) – SA4 • Multimedia Interworking between IMS & CS Networks – CT3 • Study on IMS Enhancements and Optimisations for Real Time Communication – SA2 • Multimedia Priority Service – SA1 I-WLAN Improvements • LCS for 3GPP Interworking WLAN (LCS3-IWLAN) – SA2,SA3 • Enhancement to support QoS provisioning over 3GPP/WLAN Interworking (WLAN-SC) – SA2 RAN Improvements • Enhancement of Radio Perf for VoIMS (voIMS) – SA2 • Continuous Connectivity – RAN1 • Delay Optimization for CS & PS (RANimp) – RAN2 GERAN Improvements • Support of Conversational Services in A/Gb mode via the PS Domain (SCSAGB) – GERAN1, GERAN2 • Future GERAN Evolution (FGE) - GERANx *Study Items Marked in Red

  16. Uptake of IMS for FMC • Adopted by many organizations • 3GPP2 (MDN) • TISPAN NGN Rel 1 (and subsequent releases) • ATIS NGN Focus Group • ITU-T SG19 (FMC) • Cablelabs (Packetcable 2.0)

  17. The Challenge of IMS • 3GPP is chartered to develop systems for mobile operators • 3GPP membership is primarily mobile operators and vendors • Maintaining a “common IMS” extends slightly outside of the 3GPP charter • Reconciling requirements from different industry segments (which sometimes compete) is never easy. • The benefits of a “common IMS” make it worth the headaches.

  18. 3GPP Work after Rel-7 • 3GPP has long term studies ongoing • All IP Network (AIPN) • Evolved radio accesses (LTE) • System Architecture Evolution (SAE) • This work will leverage and are expected to be optimized for IMS • New organizations may adopt IMS • It is expected 3GPP will continue to get requirements in to enhance IMS

  19. Conclusions • 3GPP is currently taking the lead in FMC standardization • Widespread industry acceptance of UMA • Widespread industry acceptance of IMS • IMS is the path for NGN, but constant vigilance is required to ensure there is only one IMS.
