Q

Telecommunications Standardization Sector (ITU)

A

Its is a United Nations specialized agency.

Members are governments.

Charter:
“is responsible for studying technical, operating and tariff questions and issuing recommendations on them with a view to standardization telecommunications on a worldwide basis”

17
Q

Groupings

A

Network and Service Operations

Tariff and Accounting Principles

Telecommunications and Management

Network and Network Maintenance

Protection against electromagnetic environment effects

Outside plant

Data Networks and Open System Communications

Characteristics of telemetric systems

18
Q

Groupings cont

A

Television and sound transmission

Languages and general software aspects for telecommunications system

Signally requirements and protocols

End-to-End transmission performance of networks and terminals

General Networks Aspects

Transport Networks, systems and equipment

Multimedia services and systems

19
Q

Broadband

A

The ITU-T responsible for broadband standards based on ATM technology.

The ATM forum – contributes to ATM standards

20
Q

Process

A

Working in 4 year cycles

Meetings of a world telecommunication standardization conference

Work program for next cycle established
Study groups created and abolished

Process decided submitted questions (results in more groups)

There is an accelerated procedure (1988)
allowing recommendations to be approved when they are ready

21
Q

Ballot process overview

A

Wide participation by governments, users and industrial representatives and by consensus decision making
-Therefore significant delays

This is now actively being streamlined via a majority rule ballot
-Significantly end users, vendor are represented on the forum

22
Q

Institute of Electrical and Electronic Engineers (IEEE)

A

Maintaining Standard

Initiating Project

Mobilizing the Working Group

Drafting standard

Balloting Standard

Gaining Final Approval

23
Q

Initiating the Project

A

Driven by sponsors input to a collaborative group

A Project Authorisation Request (PAR) is produced
-Why is it required
-What is it going to do

24
Q

Working Group

A

-PAR approved
-Works to create and write standards
-Anyone can be included in the group

25
Q

Drafting the Standard

A

-Develop first draft
-Mandatory Editorial coordinator checks the draft (layout specification checked only)
-Goes to ballot

26
Q

Balloting

A

Once the sponsor decides the standard is stable

Sponsor creates balloting group
-But anyone can comments

Balloting group consist of:
-Producers
-Users
-Government
-General Internet

Balloting lasts 30-60 days

Decisions:
-Approve
-Disapprove
-Abstain
-Consensus = 75% respondents with 75% of that group approval

27
Q

Gaining approval

A

The IEEE-SA standards Board approves the final standard or not

The decision is based on recommendations from the review committee

Standards are valid for 5 years
-After which they can be:
-Reaffirmed
-Revised
-Withdrawn

28
Q

Maintaining Standards

A

Formal interpretations highlight areas for consideration in future revisions.
