Content • European Standardization System • Who is ETSI • Changing Environment for Standardization • ETSI’s Technical Bodies • ETSI and TETRA
European Standardization System Recognized Organizations in Europe (only 3!) • CENEuropean Committee for Standardization • Covers a lot of sectors • CENELECEuropean Committee for Electro-Technical Standardization • Covers mainly the electro technical sector • ETSI European Telecommunications Standards Institute • Covers mainly telecommunication and electronic communication networks and services
Standardization is Networkingon a Global Level ISO IEC ITU International level CEN European level CENELEC ETSI National Standards Bodies National level Industry and other stakeholders
Who is ETSI? Why ETSI?
In the EU • Policy Making European Commission • ETSI works closely with EC and many other organisations • Regulation NRAs • ETSI provides technical specifications to support regulation • Frequency issues CEPT • ETSI collects, co-ordinates and contributes frequency requirements for the ICT community • ICT Standards ETSI • ETSI seeks to produce global standards • 20% ETSI Members have no established operations in EU
…ETSI, who are they exactly? • ICT Standards organization, private not for profit • Global membership (650+ Members, 80% industry, 20% overseas) • Track record of worldwide industrial hits (fixed, mobile, broadcast)… • …enabled also by a recognized IPR policy (FRAND) • Favors partnerships (regional/technical) • Founding partner and home of the 3GPP (EU/US/China/Japan/Korea) • Broadcast (EBU/CLC) • Interoperability services (test specs, test suites, interop testing-”PlugTests”) • Forum hosting • All standards available free of charge http://www.etsi.org http://portal.etsi.org
GTSC GRSC Mapping of Partnerships International bodies ITU-T ITU-R JTC1 Partnerships Interregional Co-operation • WIMAX forum • NENA • CITEL • CCSA • DVB Project • EBU • GSMA • IEEE • IPv6 Forum • TETRA MoU • (70 altogether) CENELEC Europe CEN
Global Standards Collaboration Interregional collaboration on selected standardization subjects between ARIB(Japan) (China) TTC(Japan) ISACC (Canada) TTA(Korea) TIA (USA) ITU(International) ATIS (USA) ACIF(Australia)
ETSI Partnership Projects • 3rd Generation Partnership Project • specifying 3rd Generation mobile technologies, based on an evolution of the GSM core network, and members of the ITU’s IMT-2000 family • Organizational Partners: • ARIB (Japan), CCSA (China), ETSI, TTA (Korea), TTC (Japan), ATIS (USA) • Market Representation Partners: • GSA, GSM Association, UMTS Forum, IPv6 Forum, 3G Americas, TD-SCDMA Forum, TDIA • http://www. 3gpp.org
ETSI Partnership Projects • Mobile Broadband for Emergency and Safety ApplicationsFormerly: Public Safety Partnership Project • initiated by ETSI Project TETRA (under the name of DAWS) • and by TIA and the Association of Public-Safety Communications Officials (APCO) under APCO's Project 34. • Organizational Partners: • ETSI, TIA (USA) • Observers: • ISACC (Canada), TTA (Korea) • http://www. projectmesa.org
Nortel “why ETSI?” • « Direct participation by members • The place where our customers and regulators go • Innovative, well respected and well connected world wide • Shared development cost with the complete industry • A great place to see and drive the convergence of IT and electronic communications based on complete system design expertise”
Vodafone- Why ETSI? • “Has highest reputation as the place for telecom standards • Basis of many world-renowned standards such as GSM from 3GPP, with Mobile Competence Centre • Partnership with US, Japan, China, Korea • Recognised by EU and ITU – and most other standards bodies • Overheads lower with more projects to share these costs”
Changing environment: our analysis • Fragmentation of standards making market • End to end monolithic standards are behind us • Usage/applications-driven standardization • « Shopping » for standards • Interoperability ex-post • So long the split standards makers/standards takers • China, Latin America…who’s next?
Changing environment: our analysis 4. ICT increasingly software intensive • Priority: develop systems, components, products FAST • Interoperability (of components) comes next 5. Stakes moving up towards middleware • Infrastructure converging (IMS) • Point of gravity of convergence IT/telco/broadcast/CE is in middleware - e.g. Mobile TV • Convergence: no picnic, rather plate tectonics • Open standards are necessary, but not sufficient • To start with, there are plenty of very good ones to choose from • What standards to enable the creation of value/industrial ecosystems around a technology?
We believe it’s about Interoperability Standardization has always been about interoperability But the very meaning of “Interoperability” changes • From specifying end to end systems to a logic of assembling (standard & non-standard) building blocks • From standardizing interfaces ex ante to addressing interoperability of components ex post
We believe it is about standards integration (1) • In a fragmented standards making market an agreed architecture is key to achieve interoperability. • ETSI focus is on technical interoperability (inter-working) • Ex-ante specs: requirements, architecture, protocol (profiles) • Ex-post specs: conformance tests, interoperability tests • Standards architect: system integrator (design for interoperability) and project coordinator
Standards integration (2) • Efficient collaboration with other standards bodies and forums is a pre-requisite • e.g. GSMA, OMA, WIMAX forum etc • Development of the ETSI interoperability “product line” • In addition to conformance testing and IOT • Creation of a group on IOP (Interoperability process) to coordinate generic aspects of interoperability • Hub of 3G/IMS/NGN test-beds in process • EU/LA initiative on interop profiles for e-gov applications
Testing and interoperability • ETSI’s set of unique and complementary resources: • Technical Committee MTS (Methods for Testing and Specification) • Development of methodologies, techniques and languages http://portal.etsi.org • ETSI’s Protocol and Testing Competence Centre (PTCC) • Supports ETSI committees on the application of formal techniques in standards on a daily basis • Development of test specifications (conformance and interop) http://www.etsi.org/ptcc • ETSI Plugtests™ Service • Validation of standards and prototypes through interoperability events http://www.etsi.org/plugtests
We believe it is about dosage • What/when to standardize to meet players’ strategies? • Need for standards/interoperability when heterogeneous systems are converging (e.g FMC, Telecoms/broadcast/IT) • Market differentiation standard bodies shouldn’t be over religious with interoperability • An interesting case interoperability strategies of IM players entering the “telecom” market…and vice versa - see announcements at 3GSM (“15 cellcos take mobile IM interoperability pledge”)
Last but not least, it’s minding other variables of the equation • Competition/competitiveness • Global standards/regional blocks • EU policy making (incl. spectrum, competition, etc) • Impact of OSS • IPRs in standards • etc • “It’s not peace we’re seeking, it’s meaning” • Ears to the ground • Members driven changes

TETRA Release 2 • Close cooperation with TETRA MoU Association in early 2000s resulted in an agreed plan for enhancing TETRA standard • After significant market changes and prioritisation the main deliverables of TETRA Release 2 are: • Wideband Data TEDS (TETRA Enhanced Data Service) • AMR Codec • Air Interface Enhancements, incl. Long range ‘Air-to-Ground’ • Location Information Protocol (LIP) Application
TETRA Enhanced Data Service (TEDS) • The TEDS standard has been driven by User Requirements • TEDS is a new data service fully integrated with existing TETRA networks • The TEDS standard provides high speed data and multimedia service capabilities • Utilize new technologies • Increase futureproofness of TETRA as the standard for PMR and PAMR worldwide
TETRA STANDARD TODAY AND TOMORROW • The TEDS Standard is completed • The TETRA Release 2 programme has taken into account market changes that have taken place after its launch • TC TETRA has positioned itself to be the body engaged in the continuous enhancement of TETRA beyond Release 2
