The standardization organizations involved in the creation of the 3rd Generation Partnership Project (3GPP)◦ ARIB (Japan)◦ ETSI (Europe)◦ TTA (Korea)◦ TTC (Japan)◦ T1P1 (USA)

Figure 4.2: the manufacturers and operators that are members of 3GPP through the respective standardization organization
1999, CWTS (the China Wireless Telecommunication Standard Group)◦ joined 3GPP and contributed technology from TD-
SCDMA, a TDD-based CDMA 3G technology already submitted to ITU-R earlier

3GPP also includes market representation partners◦ GSM Association◦ UMTS Forum◦ Global Mobile Suppliers Association◦ IPv6 Forum◦ Universal Wireless Communications Consortium
(UWCC)

3GPP◦ the end of 1998
initiated formally◦ early 1999
detailed technical work was started◦ the end of 1999
the first version of the common specification, Release ’99
![Page 8: Chapter 4 Background and Standardization of WCDMA](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022081420/56815044550346895dbe44f5/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Within 3GPP, four different technical specification groups (TSGs) were set up◦ Radio Access Network TSG
the one most relevant to WCDMA technology◦ Core Network TSG◦ Service and System Aspects TSG◦ Terminals TSG
Radio Access Network TSG (RAN TSG) has been divided into four different working groups (WGs) (Figure 4.3)
![Page 9: Chapter 4 Background and Standardization of WCDMA](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022081420/56815044550346895dbe44f5/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
![Page 10: Chapter 4 Background and Standardization of WCDMA](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022081420/56815044550346895dbe44f5/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
During 2000◦ further work on GSM evolution was moved from
ETSI and other forums to 3GPP◦ including work on GPRS and EDGE◦ a new TSG, TSG GERAN was set up for this
purpose
![Page 11: Chapter 4 Background and Standardization of WCDMA](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022081420/56815044550346895dbe44f5/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
In 3GPP the work is organized around work items◦ define the justification and objective for a new
feature For a smaller topic
◦ only a single work item in one working group if the impacts are limited to that group
![Page 12: Chapter 4 Background and Standardization of WCDMA](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022081420/56815044550346895dbe44f5/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
For bigger items◦ such as HSDPA◦ there were work tasks done for each of the four
RAN working groups◦ these work tasks were under a common work
item, named HSDPA For a larger topic
◦ a feasibility study is needed before the decision of actually creating a work item
![Page 13: Chapter 4 Background and Standardization of WCDMA](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022081420/56815044550346895dbe44f5/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Feasibility study◦ simply focus on the pain vs. gain ratio of the new
feature◦ comparing the advantages and the resulting
impacts on the equipment and existing features (backwards compatibility)
For each work item a reporter is nominated◦ who has the responsibility of coordinating the
work and reporting the progress from WGs to TSG level
![Page 14: Chapter 4 Background and Standardization of WCDMA](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022081420/56815044550346895dbe44f5/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
At TSG level◦ every meeting (called a plenary) monitors
progress every three months and makes any necessary synchronization between working groups and TSGs
If a work item is determined not to have reached the expected target◦ it may be altered or removed from the work
program
![Page 15: Chapter 4 Background and Standardization of WCDMA](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022081420/56815044550346895dbe44f5/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Once the work item is completed in all working groups◦ Change Requests (CRs) are brought to the
plenary for approval◦ CRs contain the changes needed in each
particular specification◦ once the plenary level approval is obtained, the
specification will be updated to a new version with the changes resulting from the new feature

The simplified illustration of the process from feasibility study to specification finalization is shown in Figure 4.4
