tailieunhanh - GSM and UMTS (P9)

Having read the title, it should not surprise you that this section deals with the creation of the Partnership Project for the standardisation of a Third Generation Mobile Communications System (3GPP). Why, you may ask, in a history book about the GSM and UMTS development, do I want to talk about the establishment of a partnership project? Isn’t it the most natural thing to do? This is, of course, a stance an insider can take today – after nearly 30 months of 3GPP’s creation and the smooth and successful running of this project. As this section will eventually show, it. | Chapter 9 The Third Generation Partnership Project 3GPP Section 1 The Creation of 3GPP Karl Heinz Rosenbrock1 2 Having read the title it should not surprise you that this section deals with the creation of the Partnership Project for the standardisation of a Third Generation Mobile Communications System 3GPP . Why you may ask in a history book about the GSM and UMTS development do I want to talk about the establishment of a partnership project Isn t it the most natural thing to do This is of course a stance an insider can take today - after nearly 30 months of 3GPP s creation and the smooth and successful running of this project. As this section will eventually show it took quite some time filled with tough and even passionate discussions before the goal was achieved. Approaching this idea from a rather philosophical point of view one should not be too surprised about the big efforts needed because already the old Greek ancestors knew that prior to being successful the Gods will demand some sweat . .2 This section starts with some general considerations leading the European Telecommunications Standards Institute ETSI membership towards a global approach in standardisation and then deals with the establishment of an ad hoc group of the ETSI Board UGG UMTS Globalisation Group to address the matter of global standardisation in this context and the related meetings and discussions. Afterwards the 3GPP will be described in a rather general manner highlighting how it works who the stakeholders are and dealing with the results achieved so far. The section is rounded up with the relationship towards the International Telecommunication Union ITU and other initiatives as well as a few concluding remarks. First Approaches to Globalisation The re-engineering process ETSI the Excellent Telecommunications Standards Institute in Europe undertook in the years 1995 1996 - only 7 years after its creation - resulted in among others a kind of mission statement for the Institute
