Continuing Cooperation on IMT Standardization
Submission Date: July 7, 2008

2. Highlight of Current Activities (1)
TIA continues to actively support the ITU IMT Standardization Activities
Subcommittee TR-45.5 develops performance, compatibility and interoperability standards for Spread Spectrum Digital wireless access systems supporting international, public, non-public, or residential mobile and personal communications.
These standards apply to service definition, mobile and portable station equipment, base station equipment, ancillary apparatus, as covered by applicable Parts of the FCC Rules.
Subcommittee TR-45.3 continues to work jointly with WTSC RAN to provide joint submissions for TDMA-SC.

5. Strategic Direction TR-45.5 will:
Maintain and enhance the core specifications (cdma2000® 1x, HRPD, and UMB)
Develop new technologies and services
Partner with 3GPP2 and its Organizational Partners and Marketing Representation Partners
Collaborate with other standards groups, e.g., 3GPP and WiMAX Forum on interworking
Work with ITU
Provide ITU with updates of cdma2000 ® as IMT-2000 and Broadband Wireless Access (BWA)
Provide ITU with input on the IMT-Advanced
Concentrate on environmentally friendly systems and services: Green Initiatives

6. Challenges
Increase capacity while maintaining service quality and system coverage to satisfy the market demands
Enhance data throughput and reduce latency to accommodate the existing and emerging data services
Continue to meet the time to market requirements by the industry

7. Next Steps/Actions TR-45.5 TR-45.3
Continue to develop new technologies and services for the cdma2000® industry
Innovate and improve existing systems in TR-45.5
Work closely with regulatory bodies to provide solutions for location services, emergency notification, new frequency plans and other governmental services.
TR-45.3
Continue to work jointly with WTSC RAN to provide joint submissions for TDMA-SC.

8. Supplemental Slides

9. IMT-Advanced
Developed comments on the IMT-Advanced requirement (IMT.TECH) document
Developed comments on the IMT-Advanced Evaluation Methodology (IMT.EVAL)
Currently evaluating, assessing and consolidating technology proposals
Develop Radio Interface Technology submittal for IMT-Advanced

10. Emergency Services Commercial Mobile Alert System:
TR-45.5 and ATIS have been jointly developing the CMAS-related specifications common for the two groups
TR-45.5 has been working on cdma2000®-specific CMAS-related specifications
Drafts of these specification are stable and TR-45.5 is on track to complete the publication in October 2008.

11. E911 and Priority Services
Support of granting priority access to cdma2000® services to a government-related special class of users.
Support identification of emergency calls originated by the mobile station. This indication is passed to the network.

12. Location
Protocols and procedures to enable mobile station assisted advanced forward link trilateration (AFLT) for HRPD access networks including Highly Detectable Pilot and UMB access networks
Protocols and procedures to enable mobile station based AFLT for 1x, HRPD, and UMB networks
Protocols and procedures to enable additional Global Navigation Satellite Systems, e.g., Galileo

13. Band Class Enhancements
Addition of band class support for the air-to-ground (airborne terminal and ground base stations) system operations
Revised the 700 MHz band plan in response to band modifications defined by the FCC
UMB system support in the band class specifications
