1. Recent Progress of CCSA’s Standardization Activities Hequan WU Chairman of the Council, CCSA

2. Guidelines for Presentations • Highlight of Current Activities - Standards Projects Progress - CCSA Standard - Broadband Popularization and Speed Enhancement • Strategic Direction • Challenges • Next Steps/Actions • Supplemental Slides

3. Highlight of Current Activities - Standards Projects Progress • 177 standards were published in 2012 • 59 National Standards (GB); • 73 Industry Standards (YDT/YDC); • 21 CCSA Standards(YDB); • 24 Research Projects

4. Highlight of Current Activities - CCSA Standard • Approved by CCSA Management Committee and the Council, CCSA started to launch CCSA Standard in 2012. • A new category of the standards CCSA is developing in addition to National Standard and Industry Standard. • Mainly focusing on ICT technologies with overlapping or convergence areas, as well as those serving for verticals. • May be transferred to National Standard or Industry standard if it is necessary in due time. • So far, 21 CCSA standards have been issued. These standards cover: • Broadband popularization and speed enhancement; • M2M; • Emergency communication; • Power supply; • EMC

5. Highlight of Current Activities - Broadband Popularization and Speed Enhancement • MIIT launched The Broadband Popularization and Speed Enhancement Project on March 31, 2012. • The goal of The Project is that by 2015, • The number of broadband users reaches 250 million. • The average bandwidth in urban area reaches 20M. • The average bandwidth in rural area reaches 4M.

6. Highlight of Current Activities - Broadband Speed Test • In order to support government’s policy-making and guarantee rights and interests of users, CCSA is developing standards on broadband speed testing standards including access network standards, interconnection standards and user experience standards. So far, the following two standards have been finished: • Test method for connection speed in broadband network – Fixed broadband access; • Broadband speed test method – User experience of internet surfing; User Experience Access Network Interconnection

7. Strategic Direction • Convergence of networks • Integrated smart terminals • Application in private networks (verticals) • Hot areas • M2M • Next Generation Internet and Mobile Internet • Smart service and terminal • IMT-advanced • Broadband Popularization and Speed Enhancement • Cloud Computing • SDN • Information Security

8. Challenges • Economic downturn affects the enthusiasm of ICT industry to participate in standardization activities. • Coordination among SDOs need to be enhanced to reduce duplication work. • The gap still exists between telecom SDO’s standardization activities and the needs of IT companies.

9. Next Steps / Actions • To enhance the value of standardization activities to absorb more IT companies to jointly develop ICT standards; • To pay close attention to the studies on hot technologies such as: • M2M • Next Generation Internet and Mobile Internet • Smart service and terminal • IMT-advanced • Cloud Computing • To continue to strengthen international technical exchange and cooperation.
