12、on D.96 was prepared by ITU-T Study Group 3 (1997-2000) and was approved under the WTSC Resolution No. 1 procedure on 17 December 1999. Recommendation D.96 (12199) i FOREWORD ITU (International Telecommunication Union) is the United Nations Specialized Agency in the field of telecommunications. The

13、ITU Telecommunication Standardization Sector (ITU-T) is a permanent organ of the ITU. The ITU-T is responsible for studying technical, operating and tariff questions and issuing Recommendations on them with a view to standardizing telecommunications on a worldwide basis. The World Telecommunication

14、Standardization Conference (WTSC), which meets every four years, establishes the topics for study by the ITU-T Study Groups which, in their turn, produce Recommendations on these topics. The approval of Recommendations by the Members of the ITU-T is covered by the procedure laid down in WTSC Resolut

15、ion No. 1. In some areas of information technology which fall within ITU-Ts purview, the necessary standards are prepared on a collaborative basis with IS0 and IEC. NOTE In this Recommendation, the expression “Administration“ is used for conciseness to indicate both a telecommunication administratio

16、n and a recognized operating agency. INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHTS The ITU draws attention to the possibility that the practice or implementation of this Recommendation may involve the use of a claimed Intellectual Property Right. The ITU takes no position concerning the evidence, validity or applica

17、bility of claimed Intellectual Property Rights, whether asserted by ITU members or others outside of the Recommendation development process. As of the date of approval of this Recommendation, the ITU had not received notice of intellectual property, protected by patents, which may be required to imp

29、) 1 Introduction Advances in satellite technology have made it possible for GMPCS systems to have the capability to serve any point on the earths surface at any time. The link between the GMPCS user terminal and the system is a satellite communication channel provided on a call-by-call basis. The po

30、tential of this new development was seen to be great enough to warrant the convening of the first World Telecommunication Policy Forum (WTPF) in October 1996 to discuss and create an understanding of GMPCS. The Final Report contains five Opinions. Opinion 4 led to the development of the Memorandum o

31、f Understanding to Facilitate Arrangements for Global Mobile Personal Communications by Satellite, Including Regional Systems (GMPCS-MOU). Opinion 5 led to an agreement on a set of regulatory, technical and operational factors to be considered where GMPCS is to be implemented. One concept addressed

32、at the WTPF was that GMPCS networks seek to offer services to users similar to those offered by terrestrial cellular radio mobile systems, but on a wider geographical basis. The main offering is that of access to the international public telephone service. The ITU-T recognized the service and operat

33、ional need for GMPCS systems to have international telephone numbers for their users and to meet this need, agreed to the concept of a shared E.164 country code. The manner in which the E.164 country code is shared is based on an Identification Code that follows the E. 164 country code. The terms an

34、d conditions expressed in this Recommendation only apply if the traffic relationships between participating GMPCS systems and network operators are agreed to by all concerned parties and authorized by the appropriate national authorities as necessary. This Recommendation does not preclude the applic

35、ation of other terms and conditions arising from the national laws and sovereign rights of any country andor geographical area. 2 Scope This Recommendation deals with the charging, billing, accounting and settlement issues and the relevant relationships that arise from the provision of access to the

36、 international telephone service by GMPCS Systems. Relations between different entities involved in the provision of service over the same GMPCS system should be determined through negotiations among the concerned parties in consideration of clause 8 below. 3 Purpose The purpose of this Recommendati

37、on is to give guidance on the charging, billing, accounting, and settlement issues that arise in the provision of the international telephone service by GMPCS systems.

(WTDC-98, Malta, 23 March-1 April 1998) The above referenced documentation treats topics such as: - the sovereign right of a country and/or a geographical area to control its inter

47、national telecommunication relationships; the need to respect the International Telecommunication Regulations of the ITU; the requirement to comply with the relevant taxation regimes; and the contribution towards providing universal access to telecommunications. - - - 5 Charging and billing issues a

48、re the subject of commercial negotiations and/or national regulations. The GMPCS systems which offer their users access to the intemational telephone service have been designed to comply with the accounting and settlement arrangements for international traffic as laid out in the relevant ITU-T Recom

49、mendations and the GMPCS-MOU. Each GMPCS System is identified by its Identification Code. The combination of the shared E.164 country code with an Identification Code creates a unique combination on which the call routing and charging may be based. The specifics of this routing and charging wiil vary according to the technical attributes of the system and existing business arrangements. Between a GMPCS system and the terrestrial network of any country there may be two basic traffic patterns: either a direct relationship or a transit relationship for the exchange of traffic.
