Time for the honest analphabetic, always good to really understand things, too late friday for me, alwys have had to struggled with words.
The objective of this program is to reduce ambiguity and lower investment risk."
TSG-GERAN#6 endorsed the proposed program. Mr. B. Guarino (AT&T) asked when a recommended set of GPRS PCCCH/PBCCH features based on test capabilities and operator priorities would be available; Mr. K. Pihl thought such list would hopefully be ready on Wednesday to get feedback from operators. Mr. R. Kar commented on the IoT issue, and requested a reference model for the infrastructure to allow such IoT to be performed independently from real networks. The GERAN Chairman reminded that the purpose of TS 11.10 was specifically related to that issue, left recently to the c/o MS manufacturers and/or testing equipment manufacturers. Mr. F. Mueller reminded that nowadays test cases are implemented in-house from MS manufacturers, the comment being valid for other issues as well, e.g. DTM, and this does complicate the testing of realistic scenarios/configurations. The GERAN Chairman invited all operators to further co-operate to the testing activities.
Conclusion.
Therefore, all documents produced on the DCCM subject before the start of the meeting were not treated.

6.6 Other general aspects
TD GP?011831 Focussed IoT program to ensure adequate testing of the GPRS PCCCH/PBCCH, from Alcatel, Ericsson, Motorola, Nokia, Nortel, Siemens, was presented by Mr. K. Pihl. The document was presented for information and discussion. The text was the following:
"In order to secure speedy deployment of GPRS PCCCH/PBCCH functionality the above manufacturers have agreed the following program. We would like to present this to the operators and manufacturers for their guidance.
1. No change to R97
2. Definition of a recommended set of GPRS PCCCH/PBCCH features based on test capabilities and operator priorities, to ensure fast and safe mass market take-up of GPRS
3. IoT program that will first verify the recommended set, with the intention to verify the full PCCCH/PBCCH functionality, latest by the R99 implementation |
