NOKIA
The concept
A NGN is a packet-based network able to provide Telecommunication
services and able to make use of multiple broadband,
QoS-enabled transport technologies and in which service-related
functions are independent from underlying transport-related technologies.
It enables unfettered access for users to networks and
to competing service providers and/or services of their choice.
It supports generalized mobility which will allow consistent and
ubiquitous provision of services to users.

ITU-T NGN-FG
ITU-T created the NGN Focus Group (NGN-FG) in June 2004.
Main topics:
Service types:
NOKIA
Functional & Nomadicity Architecture (based on IMS & non-IMS)

QoS (include the xDSL Access)
Security Capability (inc. Authentication)
NGN Control and Signaling Capability
Evolution from the existing networks to NGN
PSTN/ISDN Emulation services
PSTN/ISDN Simulation services
Multimedia services
Internet access
Other services (data services etc.)
Public service aspects (LI, ETS/TDR, etc.)
ATIS NGN FG
ATIS is a North American based body that is committed to rapidly
developing and promoting technical and operations standards for the
communications and related information technologies industry worldwide
using a pragmatic, flexible and open approach.
ATIS NGN FG is committed to:
NOKIA
Develop a North American set of requirements for NGN that includes multiservice architectures and an evolution path from currently deployed
architectures.
Review and analyze other international activities underway to define NGN
functional and structural architectures, and compare those architectures to the
desired ATIS-requirements for NGN.
Coordinate with other standards bodies to arrive, to the extent possible, at a
consistent global view of the NGN.
Guide the development of NGN standards from a business perspective.
The NGN-FG does not develop standards.
Technical & operational standards will be developed by appropriate
standards developers to include ATIS internal committees and other
external developers; e.g., ITU-T, ETSI/TISPAN, 3GPP, etc..
ETSI TISPAN
The European Telecommunications Standards Institute (ETSI) is an
independent, non-profit organization, whose mission is to produce
telecommunications standards for today and for the future.
The Next Generation Network will provide:
A multi-service, multi-protocol, multi-access, IP based network - secure,
reliable and trusted
Multi-services: delivered by a common QoS enabled core network.
Multi-access: several access networks; fixed and mobile terminals.
Not one network, but different networks that interoperate
seamlessly
An enabler for Service Providers to offer
real-time and non real-time communication services
between peers or in a client-server configuration.
Nomadicity and Mobility
of both users and devices
intra- and inter-Network Domains, eventually between Fixed and
Mobile networks
NOKIA
3GPP
The 3rd Generation Partnership Project (3GPP) is a collaboration
agreement that was established in December 1998. The collaboration
agreement brings together a number of telecommunications standards
bodies which are known as Organizational Partners. The current
Organizational Partners are ARIB, CCSA, ETSI, ATIS, TTA, and TTC.
The original scope of 3GPP was to produce globally applicable Technical
Specifications and Technical Reports for a 3rd Generation Mobile
System based on evolved GSM core networks and the radio access
technologies that they support (i.e., Universal Terrestrial Radio Access
(UTRA) both Frequency Division Duplex (FDD) and Time Division Duplex
(TDD) modes).
3GPP created the IP Multimedia Subsystem (IMS), which is part of 3GPP
Release 5 and subsequent releases.
Next Generation Networks are largely based in IMS
Next Generation Networks are sometimes seen as IMS over fixed
broadband access.
3GPP remains as the solely owner of the IMS specifications.

NGN architecture principles

A layered approach, including
A transport layer, including functional entities that do transport routing
A service layer, including functional entities that provide services
A sub-system oriented approach, enabling:
The addition of new subsystems over the time to cover new demands
and service classes.
To import (and adapt) subsystems from other standardisation bodies.
Flexibility to adjust a subsystem architecture with no or limited impact
on other subsystems.
IP connectivity is provided using two subsystems:
Network Attachment SubSystem (NASS)
Resource and Admission Control Subsystem (RACS)
First service-oriented subsystems include
the 3GPP IMS, a PSTN/ISDN Simulation Subsystem
a PSTN/ISDN Emulation Subsystem (PES)
Future service-oriented subsystems may include
A streaming subsystem
A TV Broadcasting subsystem

subsystem
USPF: User Profile Server Function

the polices to be enforced by the bearer service network elements.
Resource reservation
Support for two mechanisms
Application Function (AF)-initiated
CPE-initiated (Authorization token a la 3GPP).
QoS support over multiple access networks (e.g. ADSL and GPRS) and CPE
types.
Admission Control: Apply admission control to resource reservation requests

NGN impacts to IMS

IMS can be mostly reused, as specified by 3GPP, due to its large access
independence
A few changes are required:
NAT traversal support in various points
Relaxation of IMS constraints:
SIP compression is no longer mandatory
SIP timers are not wireless specific
SIP preconditions (183, PRACK, UPDATE) are no longer
mandatory
Support for ADSL access in P-Access-Network-Info header
35
NOKIA
IMS architecture (1)

Call Session Control Function (CSCF):
Establishes, monitors, supports and releases multimedia functions
Three types of CSCFs: P-CSCF, I-CSCF, S-CSCF (same as in 3GPP
IMS)
But P-CSCF contains also:
Application Level Gateway (ALG) to interface NAPT
Interfaces the NASS to retrieve users physical location
Media Gateway Control Function (MGCF):
Controls a T-MGW
Converts ISUP to SIP
Functionality is equal to the 3GPP IMS MGCF
Multimedia Resource Function Controller (MRFC):
Controls an MRFP
Together with the MRFP provides conference services, announcement
playback, and media transcoding
Functionality is equal to the 3GPP IMS MRFC
Breakout Gateway Control Function (BGCF):
Selects the network in which PSTN breakout is to occur
Or selects the MGCF
Equal to the 3GPP IMS BGCF

SIP AS:

May act as a SIP User Agent, SIP proxy, SIP 3rd party call controller
or SIP Back-to-back User Agent (B2BUA).
IP Multimedia Service Switching Function AS (IM-SSF AS):

Service Control Point (SCP)
Open Service Access Service Capability Server AS (OSA SCS AS):
Gateway to legacy OSA services executed according to the
OSA/Parlay framework
PSTN/ISDN Simulation Services

ETSI TISPAN considers two types of IMS services:
Basic PSTN/ISDN Simulation Services:
Similar (but not equal) to PSTN/ISDN Supplementary Services
Unlike in the PSTN, not all these services require network support
Services must interwork with the similar PSTN/ISDN supplementary
service and 3GPP supplementary service
Multimedia services:
New services, e.g., presence, multimedia instant messaging, SIP
services that do not require extra standardization effort
PSTN/ISDN Simulation Services defined in NGN Release 1 with three
priorities:
Mandatory services
Strictly recommended services
Optional services

PES principles
The PSTN/ISDN Emulation Subsystem replaces the classic
PSTN/ISDN without being noticed by end users
Provides full support for legacy terminals and services
Two PES implementations are possible:
Based on a monolithic Softswitch (scope TISPAN NGN R1)
Based on a distributed IMS (scope TISPAN NGN R2)
In both cases, the call control protocol is SIP-I (SIP
encapsulating ISUP bodies)

connections
The architecture is layered: Service layer and Transport layer
The architecture is modular: Different subsystem added on demand
ETSI TISPAN NGN Release 1 will offer two subsystems:
PSTN/ISDN Emulation Subsystem (PSTN/ISDN replacement)
PSTN/ISDN Simulation Subsystem (Core native IMS)
ETSI TISPAN NGN Release 1 standardization will be finished at the end of
