  1. 3GPP Standards Update Adrian Scrase Head of 3GPP Mobile Competence Centre

  2. The role of 3GPP • The Partners are Standards Developing Organizations: • Contribution driven …companies participate in 3GPP through their membership of one of these “Organizational Partners” (Japan) (Korea) (China) (Japan) (Europe) (USA) 2

  3. 3GPP Market Representation Partners • Bring special requirements to Standardization – from Industry • Take Standardization to their community • Promote 3GPP technologies • Take part in the 3GPP Project Coordination Group along with the Organizational Partners (SDO’s) and the Technical Group Chairmen LATEST NEWS The Indian Operators (COAI) have joined 3GPP 3

  4. 3GPP Membership http://webapp.etsi.org/3gppmembership/QueryForm.asp 359 Members, at 15/4/2010 4

  5. Where the work is done • Approximately 185 meetings per year • Many co-located meetings, totalling around 600 delegates • Some meetings receive 1000 documents

  6. What does 3GPP Specify? • 3GPP Specified Radio Interfaces • 2G radio: GSM, GPRS, EDGE • 3G radio: WCDMA, HSPA, LTE • 4G radio: LTE Advanced • 3GPP Core Network • 2G/3G: GSM core network • 3G/4G: Evolved Packet Core (EPC) • 3GPP Service Layer • GSM services • IP Multimedia Subsystem (IMS) • Multimedia Telephony (MMTEL) • Support of Messaging and other OMA functionality • Emergency services and public warning • Etc. 6

  7. 3GPP Release Concept Still to come: R11… 7

  8. General Directions of 3GPP Evolution • Radio Interfaces • Higher Data Throughput • Lower Latency • More Spectrum Flexibility • Improved CAPEX and OPEX • IP Core Network • Support of non-3GPP Accesses • Packet Only Support • Improved Security • Greater Device Diversity • Service Layer • More IMS Applications (MBMS, PSS, mobile TV now IMS enabled) • Greater session continuity 8

  9. Focus on 3GPP Family Evolution Standards availability EDGE EDGE+ 1Mb/s 384Kb/s W-CDMA HSPA HSPA+ 384Kb/s 18Mb/s 42Mb/s LTE LTE-Advanced 1000Mb/s 100Mb/s 2000 2010 9

  10. GPRS/EDGE Evolution • Release 8 and earlier • GERAN/LTE Interworking • General corrections • Multicarrier BTS • A-GNSS (Global Navigation Satellite Systems) • Release 9 • Hybrid Location • Multi Standard Radio (MSR) “ TSG GERAN has been continuing to evolve GSM EDGE technology towards services that approach UMTS and LTE levels Andrew Howell, 3GPP GERAN Chairman ” 10

  11. UMTS Evolution (HSPA) • 240 Operators in > 100 countries…Forecast 1 billion subscriptions by 2011 • 3GPP R5 & R7 added MIMO antenna and 16QAM (Uplink)/ 64QAM (Downlink) modulation • Improved spectrum efficiency (modulation 16QAM, Reduced radio frame lengths • New functionalities within radio networks (incl.re-transmissions between NodeB and the Radio Network Controller) • Latency reduced (100ms for HSDPA and 50ms for HSUPA)

  12. HSPA Commitmentshttp://www.gsmworld.com/our-work/mobile_broadband/networks.aspx Source GSMA, 7/12/2009 12

  13. 3GPP R8 delivers LTE • Significantly increased data throughput • Downlink target 3-4 times greater than HSDPA Release 6 • Uplink target 2-3 times greater than HSUPA Release 6 • Increased cell edge bit rates • Downlink: 70% of the values at 5% of the Cumulative Distribution Function (CDF) • Uplink: same values at 5% of the Cumulative Distribution Function (CDF) • Significantly reduced latency • High mobility • Cell ranges up to 5 km; with best throughput, spectrum efficiency and mobility. Cell ranges up to 30 km; Mobility with some degradation in throughput and spectrum efficiency permitted. Cell ranges up to 100 km; Supported; degradations accepted • Reduced CAPEX and OPEX 13

  14. LTE network deployments April 7, 2010: The number of mobile operators who have committed to deploy LTE advanced mobile broadband systems has more than doubled in the past year. There are now 64 operators committed to LTE network deployments in 31 countries, according to the Global mobile Suppliers Association (GSA) 14

  15. What does Release 9 add to LTE? • Release 9 - Completion of extensions in March 2010 • Continuing femtocell integration • Added functionality, broadens LTE deployment scenarios • Feeding back results from first LTE deployments • Also, advancing non-LTE technologies www.3gpp.org/releases 15 15

  16. Dispelling some Myths about LTE • Myth 1: LTE is Data only Reality: Support of voice was one of the key considerations in designing LTE. The voice solution for LTE is IMS VoIP and it is fully specified. • Myth 2: SMS isn’t supported over LTE Reality: LTE and EPS will support a rich variety of messaging applications - including SMS. The solution is twofold, covering both the full IMS case and a transition solution for those networks that do not support IMS. • Myth 3: IMS isn’t ready for prime time Reality: IMS was first developed as part of Rel 5 in 2002. It is based on IETF protocols such as SIP and SDP that are very mature. These technologies have been embraced by the industry as the signalling mechanism for multimedia applications. • Myth 4: LTE doesn’t support emergency calls Reality: VoIP support for emergency calls (incl. location) in Rel 9. A transition solution fall back to 3G/2G - has existed since IMS was introduced (Rel 5). 16

  17. LTE-Advanced (R10) • Smooth transition from 3G to 4G • LTE-Advanced to be the main feature of 3GPP Release 10 LTE LTE-Advanced 4G 3G You are here 17 17

  18. What will LTE-Advanced deliver? • Up link transmission scheme • Improvements to LTE • Data rates up to 500Mb/s • Relay functionality • Improving cell edge coverage • More efficient coverage in rural areas • CoMP (coordinated multiple point transmission and reception) • Downlink coordinated multi-point transmission • Uplink coordinated multi-point reception • Local IP Access (LIPA) & Enhanced HNB to allow traffic off-load • Support for wider Bandwidth (Up to 100MHz) • Downlink transmission scheme • Improvements to LTE by using 8x8 MIMO • Data rates of 100Mb/s with high mobility and 1Gb/s with low mobility LTE LTE-Advanced 4G 3G You are here 18

  19. Timelines for LTE-AdvancedLTE-Advanced is the 3GPP submission for the ITU’s IMT-Advanced system • Study Item, “LTE-Advanced” approved in 3GPP - Mar 2008  • LTE-Advanced Requirements (TR 36.913) - Jun 2008  • LTE-Advanced “Early Submission” made to ITU-R - Sep 2008  • “Complete Technology Submission” to ITU-R - Jun 2009  • “Final submission” to ITU-R - Oct 2009  • Completion of LTE-Advanced specifications by 3GPP- 2010 / 2011 19

  20. Convergence (Technology) • 3GPP LTE is apoint of convergence, to unite the world’s operators on a common technology platform • 2009 - CDMA Development Group (CDG) join 3GPP as a Market Representation Partner (MRP) • 2009 - TD-SCDMA Forum pave the way for TD-LTE • 2009 - Public Safety Agencies announce that LTE meets their requirements (See APCO, NENA, NPSTC Announcements) • 2010 (Q1) - Clearwire joins 3GPP (ATIS Member) • 2001 (Q1) – 3GPP/Broadband Forum workshop on fixed/mobile convergence 20

  21. Fixed Mobile Convergence • 3GPP is working with the BroadBand Forum to support Fixed-Mobile Convergence using the Evolved Packet Core • Convergence addresses IP session mobility, authentication, and policy • 3 Phase plan adopted • Phase 1 is basic interworking between fixed and wireless • Phase 2 provides offloading of traffic • Phase 3 provides convergence of network nodes • Phase 1 target is 3GPP Rel 10.

  22. 3GPP Convergence (Scale) • Machine-to-machine • Intelligent Transport Systems • Smart Grids • Smart Cards, eCommerce, USB, High Speed Interface • mHealth • RFID • Multi-Standard Radio (MSR-BS) 22

  23. Beyond Release 10 Release 10 and beyond will bring more innovation. For example: • Haptic services (Study, TR 22.987) • Surround sound, Wide-band speech quality • Content Distribution Services, peer-to-peer over IMS (Study S1-094406) • Personal Broadcast Service (PBS) content distribution via 3GPP accesses (Study TR 22.947) 4G 23

  24. Conclusions • 3GPP LTE is set to be themajor enabler for mobile broadband • EDGE and HSPA remain hugely successful • Industrial input to the standards process is of an unprecedented level • The first commercial LTE Networks have been launched based on 3GPP Release 8 • LTE is an evolution path which unites the GSM/UMTS, TD-LTE and CDMA families as well as the fixed/mobile communities • There is a bigger picture, LTE and LTE-Advanced will enable new services & innovation 24
