3GPP Release 6 (EUL/HSUPA)

Cooters,

<< Isn't a sampling date of 1Q2006 aggressive for HSUPA, this is Rel6 isn't it? >>

It's aggressive. Release 6 completed (was functionally frozen) in December although it contains some work items flagged as "near completed." Placeholders if you will.

Items which are near completion, but expected completion by March 2005 will be reviewed for completion at the next meeting. This includes Features that have strong industry interest to be included in Release 6 and some items awaiting IETF work completion in order to confirm their completion

[anything not reasonably complete tumbles to R7]

A sampling date of 1Q2006, probably means late 1Q2006 as usual and perhaps even a little slippage, which is one year from completion, so the standard should be reasonably mature -- mature enough to sample against it, and mature enough for networks to be progressed enough for early lab trialing, test cases progressed if not complete, and early samples and a test handset can help with subsequent maturation and given and the R5 building blocks should be quite well matured by then with early R5 networks starting to launch and R6 network launches in 2007.
