TS
7.1.0
C3
https://www.3gpp.org/ftp/Specs/archive/29_series/29.427/29427-710.zip
The present document provides the ETSI endorsement of the 3GPP TS 29.163 (V7.1.0) [1]. The clauses 7.2.3 and 7.4 of 3GPP TS 29.163 [1] specify the signalling interworking between ISDN User Part (ISUP) protocols and SIP in order to support services that can be commonly supported by ISUP and SIP-based network domains. The clause 9.2.3.3.5 specifies how ringing tone is applied at the gateway when interworking ISUP and SIP. The present document specifies the principles of interworking between the ETSI TISPAN IMS and ISUP based legacy CS networks, in order to support IM basic voice calls, therefore all the references to interworking between IMS and BICC are out of scope of the present document. The present document is a protocol interworking specification; therefore all references to the user plane interworking are out of scope of the present document. The present document specifies the interworking between ETSI SIP profile (as specified within ES 283 003 [3]) and ISUP, as specified in EN 300 356-1 [2] respectively.

Bandwidth saving at Nb interface with IP transport
TR
7.1.0
C3
https://www.3gpp.org/ftp/Specs/archive/29_series/29.814/29814-710.zip
The present document investigates solutions for a simple, optional transport format for the Nb interface and IP transport that allows transporting several RTP/NbFP/codec payload PDUs of different user plane connections within one packet. The solution shall minimise impacts to existing network characteristics, in particular jitter and packet delay. The transport format shall be suitable for any type of payload transported within NbFP. Though primarily intended and possibly optimised for NbFP transport within 3GPP circuit-switched core networks, the multiplexing design shall be generic and future proof by not precluding support of non-NbFP payload types, e.g. standard VoIP bearers or other interfaces such as Iu. Furthermore, backward compatible signalling extensions required to negotiate the use of this transport option, to set up multiplexing connections, and to assign bearers to these connections are investigated. The benefits and drawbacks of multiplexing at the Nb interface are investigated.

Coexistence between TISPAN and 3GPP authentication schemes
TR
7.0.0
S3
https://www.3gpp.org/ftp/Specs/archive/33_series/33.803/33803-700.zip
The present document studies from a security point of view the coexistence between TISPAN authentication methods (as specified in TISPAN release 1) and existing 3GPP authentication schemes, i.e. both the IMS AKA (as specified in TS 33.203 [5] and TS 24.229 [4]) and the early IMS security (as specified in TR 33.978 [6]). This document also aims to provide solutions to handle potential compatibility issues. These issues are listed in detail in section 5 of this document. This document is meant to ensure that the same IMS core network entities can be used to support both 3GPP and TISPAN authentication schemes. In this context, rules are developed how an x‑CSCF can decide from a registration request which authentication scheme to apply. If these rules are not adhered to compatibility problems may arise.

IP Multimedia Subsystem (IMS) subscription and access scenarios
TR
6.0.0
S1
https://www.3gpp.org/ftp/Specs/archive/22_series/22.800/22800-600.zip
This document studies scenarios between subscribers and operators, mainly from IMS subscriptions point of view and verifies the compatibility of the possible scenarios within 3GPP Scope. Release 6 includes several work items like IMS enhancements, WLAN interworking that needs to be better understood so that clear requirement can be agreed and relevant technical specifications can be developed in time. The document will identify the requirements arising from the following issues: • Identification of requirements for 3GPP operators to implement only some of 3GPP system domains? (For example an IMS system separated from the PS domain and access network. What is the relationship between the AN/CN/IMS networks in this case? Are there conflicts in privacy issues due to several subscriptions?) • Operator control of networks used to access / provide IMS services. For example operator may want to limit the subscriber to access the IMS via a specific 3GPP access network. • Non-3GPP access network implications. • Simultaneously access to IMS by one user with multiple devices. . • UE functionality split (if any implications). • Deployment of UICC with several USIM and ISIM applications from different parties. • Analyse aspects of user interaction when activating USIM and ISIM applications on the UICC (e.g. manually, automatically, PIN, NON-PIN). Below issues need to be described in scenarios : • Generic issues • Security • Charging • Privacy • Roaming • Regulatory (e.g lawful interception) etc. • Quality of service • User experience Further TR needs to translate the scenarios, which fit in the scope of the 3GPP system to 3GPP service requirements. Criteria for requirements to be included: 1. In scope with 3GPP access (UTRAN, GERAN) or access that 3GPP has specified interworking with (WLAN). 2. In scope with 3GPP core network(s). 3. In scope with 3GPP enabling technologies. 4. Scope of this work is limited to identify service requirements derived from scenarios capturing various business requirements. No architectural solutions will be considered in this TR. Note: 3GPP should not place requirements, which would prohibit the possibility to use non-3GPP defined access for IMS. Note: The SA2 within its own documentation shall look into technical feasibility and architecture implications of scenarios and requirements defined by SA1 and contact SA3 and SA5 for deeper technical understanding if necessary. Overall architecture implications shall consider also UICC implications (e.g. if it is appropriate to have several ISIMs on one UICC and possibility of having empty field for either ISIM or USIM in a UICC.?) and accordingly contact T3 for deeper technical understanding if necessary.

TS
6.16.0
CP
https://www.3gpp.org/ftp/Specs/archive/23_series/23.140/23140-6g0.zip
The present document defines the stage 2 and stage 3 description of the non-realtime Multimedia Messaging Service, MMS. Stage 2 identifies the functional capabilities and information flows needed to support the service described in stage 1. The present document includes information applicable to network operators, service providers and terminal, switch and database manufacturers. The present document contains the core functions for a non realtime Multimedia Messaging Service, MMS, which are sufficient to provide a basic service. MMS uses a number of technologies to realise the requirements of the stage 1 description (3G TS 22.140) [1]. The present document describes how the service requirements are realised with the selected technologies. As far as possible existing protocols (e.g. WAP, SMTP, ESMTP as transfer protocols; lower layers to provide push, pull, notification) and existing message formats (e.g. SMIL, MIME) shall be used for the realisation of the Multimedia Messaging Service. The present document serves as a foundation for the development of MMS. It describes a new service which has no direct equivalent in the previous ETSI/GSM world or in the fixed network world. In consequence readers may find that certain aspects are not clearly defined or open to misinterpretation. Where any such case is encountered it is essential that the issue is brought to the 3GPP TSG T2 standards body (see page 2 for contact information) for discussion and resolution in order to provide interoperable implementations.

Network sharing; Architecture and functional description
TR
6.1.0
S2
https://www.3gpp.org/ftp/Specs/archive/23_series/23.851/23851-610.zip
In the current mobile telephony marketplace, functionality that enables various forms of network sharing is becoming more and more important. These aspects have not really been addressed in either 2G or 3G systems, although there is functionality that supports a very basic type of network sharing in the current specifications within 3GPP. In [1], 3GPP has studied service requirements and functionality necessary for supporting a standardized network sharing. The present document discusses issues and describes functionalities required for Network Sharing as outlined in [1]. The intention is to present one (or more) architectural alternatives for achieving the required functionality within a 3GPP network. An important part of the work is to adapt the network functionality so that supporting mobile telephones that do not have any of the possibly new functionality being introduced for network sharing support can be handled in a more efficient way than in pre-Rel-6 networks.

The present document is a temporary container for the functional models, flows and protocol details for the presence service within the IP Multimedia (IM) Core Network (CN) subsystem based on the Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) and SIP Events. Where possible the present document specifies the requirements for this protocol by reference to specifications produced by the IETF within the scope of SIP and SIP Events. Where this is not possible, extensions to SIP are defined within the present document. The document has therefore been structured in order to allow both forms of specification. The present document includes information applicable to network operators, service providers and manufacturers. Editor's note: Agreed material is held in this TR for an interim period of time. This has the advantage that: It creates a location where the material may stabilise outside a document under CR control, thus fulfilling the function of the original annexes in the IN CN subsystem documents. This TR will not be published.

In order to improve monitoring other RAT systems or performing inter-frequency measurements in 1.28 Mcps TDD , the channel re-assigning scheme with signaling support and other possible solutions are proposed and investigated, potentially allowing the UE to have a longer measurement window or to avoid possible measurement failures.The purpose of this document is to help the TSG RAN WG1, WG2, WG3 and WG4 to understand potential benefits with respect to the respective study areas, to investigate the proposed method and to identify the impacts to current specifications, which is needed for the introduction of the improvement of inter-frequency and inter-system measurement for1.28 Mcps TDD. The different study areas will be described in subsequent chapters. It is intended to gather all information in order to trace the history and the status of the SI in each WGs. The TR should: • describe the proposed methods for each study area. • describe the impacts due to this SI. • describe agreed requirements related to the SI. • identify the affected specifications according to the introduction of inter frequency and inter system measurement for 1.28 Mcps TDD and • also describes the schedule of the SI.

The present document summarises results from the Study Item “Feasibility Study considering the viable deployment of UTRA in additional and diverse spectrum arrangements”. Both UTRA FDD and UTRA TDD are considered. For UTRA FDD, the spectrum arrangements include the present FDD frequency bands as defined in Release 5 of the relevant 3GPP specifications as well as the additional bands identified for IMT-2000 by ITU-R WRC-2000, in particular the band 2500-2690 MHz. For UTRA TDD, the study focuses on the use of the additional band 2500-2690 MHz.

Feasibility study for Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) for UTRAN enhancement
TR

RP
https://www.3gpp.org/ftp/Specs/archive/25_series/25.892/25892-600.zip
The scope of this Study Item is to consider the performance of OFDM in the mobile environment and to consider scenarios in which OFDM may be introduced in UTRAN 3GPP based systems. This activity involves the Radio Access work area of the 3GPP studies and has some effect on the Mobile Equipment and Access Network of the 3GPP systems. The aims of this study are: - to consider the advantages that may be gained by introducing a new modulation technique in 3GPP RAN systems, - to estimate possible benefits and complexity and - to recommend to 3GPP RAN if further standardisation development work should be undertaken by 3GPP. As a starting point, OFDM will be considered in the downlink only. It should be possible to operate in a 5MHz spectrum allocation i.e. coupled with W-CDMA in the uplink for a 2*5MHz deployment scenario. The following list provides examples of areas that are to be considered in the study: - Throughput for data services . To be compared with throughput of current UTRAN releases; - Complexity aspects of multimode UEs supporting both OFDM and release 99/release 5 UMTS; - Deployment scenarios including frequency re-use aspects within diverse spectrum allocations; The study should consider performance aspects, aspects linked to the evolution of UMTS (high level architecture, diverse spectrum arrangements and allocations), impacts on signalling in UTRAN , aspects of capacity/cost/complexity/coverage and aspects of co-existence with the existing UMTS modes. The purpose of the study is to consider the feasibility of introducing OFDM in UTRAN and to compare OFDM performance with HSDPA. The analysis of OFDM performance and its comparison with reference HSDPA performance should be based on a basic OFDM design (often referred as textbook OFDM). More elaborate OFDM techniques should not be considered. However the use of text book OFDM in the feasibility study phase does not restrict the design when moving to the specification phase. It is a study of physical layer aspects only and does not include changes in UTRAN architecture. Changes are to be restricted to the physical layer and not extend beyond those needed to support an additional modulation. Principles as provided in TS 25.302 (Services provided by the physical layer) are to be respected where possible. This study item was approved by the TSG RAN#16 (Marco Island Fl USA 4th – 7th June 2002).

The present document is a temporary container for the functional models, flows and protocol details for the conferencing service within the IP Multimedia Core Network subsystem (IMS) based on the Session Initiation Protocol (SIP), SIP Events, the Session Description Protocol (SDP) , the Conference Policy Control Protocol (CPCP) and other protocols. The document covers also instant messaging conferences. The contents of this report when stable will be moved into the Technical Specification 3GPP TS 23.218 [3], 3GPP TS 24.228 [4] and 3GPP TS 24.229 [5]. Editor's note: This TR will also include information on conference floor control, which will be using different protocols than SIP and SDP (see clause 9), as e.g. described in draft-wu-sipping-floor-control-04.txt. This information might be moved either to TS 24.229 or to another 3GPP document. Editor's note: The "other protocols" that are mentioned here need to be listed in detail, in order to replace the phrase "other protocols". This TR only covers protocols in the scope of CN1. Editor's note: The work on instant messaging conferences is related to the work under the work item for IMS messaging, WID 11039, and the decision is to be made on contributed text as in which document it will appear. Editor's note: The ongoing work on floor control and conferencing in CN5 needs to be taken into account. This document does not cover the signalling between a MRFC and a MRFP. Where possible the present document specifies the requirements for this protocol by reference to specifications produced by the IETF within the scope of SIP, SIP Events, SDP and other protocols. Where this is not possible, extensions to SIP are defined within the present document. The document has therefore been structured in order to allow both forms of specification. The present document includes information applicable to network operators, service providers and manufacturers. Editor's note: Agreed material is held in this TR for an interim period of time, and the material transferred into release 6 versions of 23.218, 24.228 and 24.229 at a later time. This has the advantage that: It creates a location where the material may stabilise outside a document under CR control, thus fulfilling the function of the original annexes in the IN CN subsystem documents. It avoids the need to create release 6 mirror CRs for all release 5 changes to the IM CN subsystem. This TR will not be published.

The scope of this Technical Report (TR) is to capture the results of a feasibility study on SS7 signalling transport (e.g. MAP & CAP) in a 3GPP core network with SCCP-User Adaptation (SUA) for Release-5. With this purpose in mind, this TR evaluates the advantages and disadvantages associated with the implementation of SUA in the core network, and compares it with the SCCP/M3UA option. Therefore, an overview of M3UA is provided in this document for reference. This TR covers all scenarios such as SUA peer to peer as well as interworking with legacy SS7 network, plus the interworking between SUA and SCCP/M3UA. This TR also identifies and studies the technical issues related to SUA implementation and proposes the possible technical solutions that will enable the effient implementation of SUA, with minimum impacts on the available services. More generally, the aim of this TR is to identify and strive to solve all issues introduced by such evolution of the core network signalling. At the end of the feasibility study, the open issues are reported and their importance is assessed. Also discussed are the benefits and drawbacks with respect to the introduction of SUA into 3GPP core network signalling.

Signalling interworking between the 3GPP profile of the Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) and non-3GPP SIP usage
TR
6.1.1

The present document investigates the SIP signalling interworking between entities of IM CN subsystems behaving as specified in the 3GPP profile of SIP and SDP in 3GPP TS 24.229 [1], with related call flow examples in 3GPP TS 24.228 [2], and SIP network entities external to the IM CN subsystems, which may not adhere to the 3GPP profile of SIP and SDP. The present document assumes that GPRS access and service based local policy using the Go interface is applied. Non-GPRS access to IMS may have implications on the TR, which are not yet discussed. The considered SIP network entities external to the IM CN subsystems may feature different SIP capabilities, such as the support of arbitrary SIP options. The document focuses on scenarios where the non-3GPP UA does not support one or more of the following SIP extensions: Preconditions: "Integration of Resource Management and SIP" RFC 3312 [5]; Update: "The Session Initiation Protocol UPDATE Method" RFC 3311 [7]; 100rel: "Reliability of Provisional Responses in SIP" RFC 3262 [6]. The present document focuses on the preconditions, the update and 100rel extensions because only these extensions imply interworking issues since they require the end-to-end cooperation of both UAs. Security interworking may also have implications on the TR, which are not yet discussed. The present document does not make any a priori assumptions where a possible interworking is performed within the IM CN subsystem. Any SIP network entity within the IM CN subsystem may take part in the interworking. The network entities that may become involved in a certain interworking topic are identified for each of these topics separately. The present document features a discussion of topics, where an interworking is possibly required. Aspects of the 3GPP profile of SIP and SDP, which obviously do not require any interworking, are not discussed. An assessment of the impact and probability of occurrence of the discussed scenarios is also provided. Problems due to network elements within the IM CN subsystem, which do not or only partly satisfy the 3GPP profile of SIP and SDP, in particular non 3GPP compliant SIP UAs, are out of scope of the present document. The present document is dedicated exclusively to issues inherent in the SIP and SDP signalling. Related topics in a wider sense, such as IPv6 to IPv4 address translation or user plane transcoding are out of scope. For brevity, in what follows the above SIP extensions are only mentioned if a SIP UA does not make use of them. Otherwise, it is understood that the UA makes use of them.

An overview of the mapping TR is contained in the introduction of the present document as well as in 3GPP TR 29.998-1 [10]. The OSA specifications define an architecture that enables application developers to make use of network functionality through an open standardised interface, i.e. the OSA API's. The API specification is contained in the 3GPP TS 29.198 series of specifications. An overview of these is available in the introduction of the present document as well as in 3GPP TS 29.198-1 [1]. The concepts and the functional architecture for the Open Service Access (OSA) are described by 3GPP TS 23.198 [3]. The requirements for OSA are defined in 3GPP TS 22.127 [2].

TR

https://www.3gpp.org/ftp/Specs/archive/32_series/32.804/32804-620.zip
The present document defines the requirements for the network wide control of RET antennas via the Itf-N. Two example types of RET antennas are those that are tilted using a mechanical tilting mechanism and those that use a phased array. The control of RET antennas has been studied in 3GPP RAN3 with an approved work item for “Remote Control of Electrical Tilting Antennas” provided in RP-030193 at RAN#19 in March 2003, producing TR 25.802 [1]. The RET control mechanism makes use of the Iuant interface, which is defined in the following set of specifications for General Aspects and Principles [8], Layer 1 [9], Signalling Transport [10], and Remote Electrical Tilting (RET) Antennas Application Part (RETAP) Signalling [11]. The ability to control Antenna tilt permits cell size to be adjusted, thereby permitting control of up and downlink throughput. The ability to control Antenna tilts remotely from a network management system permits a network wide perspective to be obtained and for settings to be adjusted in response to predicted population movements, or in response to performance monitoring data to help make the best use of the available radio access network. Figure 1 shows the main Network Elements (NEs) and depicts the two system contexts A and B where the IRPagent may be located either in the Element Manager (EM), or within the Network Element (NE).

The present document gives recommendations to develop future IRP specifications in a Backward Compatible (BC) way so that the group of IRPManager(s) and IRPAgent(s) are not forced to be upgraded in lock step. The business case for supporting such group, as described above, is complex. It may not relate to the functions of the supported IRPs alone. Rather, it can relate to the cost of coordination of IRPVersion upgrades, the cost of maintaining an old IRPVersion and the cost of using single-vendor or multi-vendor IRPAgents. These considerations are operator deployment scenarios specific. Clause 2 provides the list of references. Clause 3 provides the definitions and abbreviations used in the document. Clause 4 specifies the Recommendations. Clause 5 describes the system context where the Recommendations are applicable.

This technical specification covers the security mechanisms and procedures necessary to protect the MAP protocol. The complete set of enhancements and extensions to facilitate security protection for the MAP protocol is termed MAPsec and it covers transport security in the MAP protocol itself and the security management procedures. The security mechanisms specified for MAP are on the application layer. This means that MAPsec is independent of the network and transport protocols to be used. This technical specification contains the stage-2 specification for security protection of the MAP protocol. The actual implementation (stage-3) specification can be found in the MAP stage-3 specification, TS 29.002 [4]. NOTE: It is explicitly noted that automated key management and key distribution is not part of Rel‑5. All key management and key distribution in Rel‑5 shall therefore be carried out by other means (see Annex A).

TR

https://www.3gpp.org/ftp/Specs/archive/33_series/33.810/33810-600.zip
The scope of this feasibility study is limited to authentication of network elements which are using NDS/IP, and located in the inter-operator domain. It means that this study concentrates on authentication of Security Gateways (SEG), and the corresponding Za‑interfaces. Authentication of elements in the intra-operator domain is considered as an internal issue for the operators. This is quite much in line with [6] which states that only Za is mandatory, and that the security domain operator can decide if the Zb-interface is deployed or not, as the Zb-interface is optional for implementation. However, NDS/AF can easily be adapted to intra-operator use. This is just a simplification of the inter-operator case as all NDS/IP NEs and the PKI infrastructure belong to the same operator. Validity of certificates may be restricted to the operator's domain. This work might also later be extended to provide entity authentication services to non-control plane nodes, but this has not been studied. Possible use of multi-purpose PKI solutions (e.g. providing end-user security) for NDS/AF has not been studied. On the contrary, it is recommended to use a dedicated and profiled PKI for NE authentication in NDS/IP. Different applications make different demands on a PKI and it may make sense to build a lightweight PKI for each purpose rather than to build one that solves all problems. Complexity is one of the main impediments to PKI deployment today [11]. The NDS architecture for IP-based protocols is illustrated in figure 1. Figure 1: NDS architecture for IP-based protocols [6]

Feasibility study on (Universal) Subscriber Interface Module (U)SIM security reuse by peripheral devices on local interfaces
TR
6.1.0

This Feasibility Study report conducts a threat analysis and determines the feasibility of Reuse of a Single SIM, USIM, or ISIM by peripheral devices on local interfaces to access multiple networks. Most important for this Reuse is the authentication and key agreement (AKA) function provided by these applications. The peripheral devices include 3GPP and WLAN devices that function as integrated or attachable peripherals on Laptops or PDAs or other mobile data devices. The multiple access networks of interest correspondingly include 3GPP and WLAN type networks. The objective of this study is to realize the diverse usage models with multiple external (wired or wireless) interfaces from a security point of view, without incorporating significant changes to the 3GPP and WLAN infrastructure. It also studies the impact on current security specifications for 3GPP, especially given that some issues have already been identified surrounding key setting procedures, USIM sequence number synchronization, UICC presence detection/UICC application presence detection and termination of the UICC usage etc. It also studies additional user authentication requirements (e.g. PINs) when used over local interfaces like Bluetooth, IR or USB. Further more it studies the impact on having many entities using the same security mechanism and any 3GPP core network elements. Reuse of security functions provided by applications on the UICC does not have an impact on ownership and control of the UICC, which remains with the issuer of the UICC. This Feasibility Study may be used as a basis for future CRs to TS 33.234 as and when any of the proposals are developed by SA WG3.

The security mechanisms which are specified are independent of applications. The present document describes the functional requirements of the security mechanisms with the implementation detail of these mechanisms being described in the stage 2 specification (TS 23.048). The present document is the result of a feasibility study carried out on this topic, contained in GSM 11.15. Within the scope of this document, the UICC refers here to a ICC which support at least one application in order to access a cellular network. The ICC is considered as a platform, which is either based on TS 31.101 [13], here called "3G platform", or TS 51.011 [23], here called "2G platform".

The present document describes a range of alternative interfaces which may be utilised by Short Message Service Centre (SMSC), and Short Message Entity (SME), developers for the connection of SMEs to SMSCs. The purpose of the present document is to provide a single document within which the various proprietary SMSC to SME interface standards may be accommodated as optional implementations. As stated in 3GPP TS 23.040 [1], the functionality of the SMSC is outside of the scope of the 3GPP Technical Specifications. As a result, no standardised interfaces have been specified for the connection of SMEs to the SMSC. In the absence of a prevailing standard, SC (Service Centre), developers have devised their own protocols which have not necessarily been based on any existing standards and are therefore largely incompatible with one another. This document by referring to the various de-facto protocols will limit the further proliferation of proprietary standards and will benefit new SC/SME developers who may then adopt one or more of the existing protocols outlined in the present document. This document does not provide recommendations, as to the preferred protocol implementation as all are regarded as being of equal merit. SC/SME implementors should therefore adopt the protocol most suited to their particular implementation, application or market.

The present document specifies the structure of the Secured Packets in a general format and in implementations using Short Message Service Point to Point (SMS-PP) and Short Message Service Cell Broadcast (SMS-CB). Furthermore, the coding is specified for a set of common application commands within the secured packets. This set is a subset of commands specified in 3GPP TS 51.011 [5] and allows remote management of files on the UICC in conjunction with SMS and the Data Download to UICC feature of 3GPP TS 31.111. For UICCs based on 3GPP TS 43.019 [15], the set of commands used in the remote applet management is defined in the present document. This is based on the Open Platform card management specification [14]. For UICCs based on other technologies, other loading mechanisms may be used. The present document is applicable to the exchange of secured packets between an entity in a 3G or GSM PLMN and an entity in the UICC. Secured Packets contain application messages to which certain mechanisms according to 3GPP TS 22.048 have been applied. Application messages are commands or data exchanged between an application resident in or behind the 3G or GSM PLMN and on the UICC. The Sending/Receiving Entity in the 3G or GSM PLMN and the UICC are responsible for applying the security mechanisms to the application messages and thus turning them into Secured Packets.

https://www.3gpp.org/ftp/Specs/archive/23_series/23.873/23873-200.zip
The scope of this Technical Report (TR) is to capture the results of a feasibility study on how to introduce a clear separation of transport and control functions in the PS CN domain, with minimum impacts on the reference logical architecture for R’00. With this separation in view, functional elements of the PS CN domain that provide both significant control and transport functions may be decomposed into two separate functional entities: one entity taking care of the control functionality and an other entity handling the payload transport. An exact distribution of the functions currently supported by a single functional entity between new functional entities and other network entities will be defined as the result of this feasibility study, if necessary. A standard control protocol should be used between the control and transport entities, if applicable, e.g. H.248. The required functionality, e.g. extensions to H.248 or any other protocol which may be chosen for this task, would have to be defined and standardised within 3GPP. This TR will identify and define these extensions, and extensions to other interfaces if applicable. More generally, the aim of this TR is to identify and strive to solve all issues introduced by such evolution of the PS CN domain. At the end of the feasibility study, the remaining open issues will be reported and their importance will be assessed. An analysis of the benefits and drawbacks of separating the control and transport functions in the PS CN domain will also be performed.

The present document gives examples of signalling flows for the IP multimedia call control based on SIP and SDP. These signalling flows demonstrate the interaction with the IP-connectivity network (GPRS), and with the protocol provided at the Cx interface. These signalling flows provide detailed signalling flows, which expand on the overview information flows provided in 3GPP TS 23.228 [2]. NOTE: The detailed signalling flows in the present document can be referenced, but the specification will not be further maintained. The example flows can contain errors and can only be regarded as guidelines for persons wanting an overview of how SIP messages with detailed header information could in some example cases look like within 3GPP. Other not documented signalling flows can be as relevant and compliant as the ones that are outlined in this specification.
