The IT-T is responsible for studying technical, operating and tariff

3、questions and issuing Recommendations on them with a view to standardizing telecommunications on a worldwide basis. The World Telecommunication Standardization Conference (WTSC), which meets every four years, established the topics for study by the ITU-T Study Groups which, in their turn, produce Re

4、commendations on these topics. ITU-T Recommendation Q.1211 was prepared by the IT-T Study Group Xi (1988-1993) and was approved by the WTSC (Helsinki, March 1-12, 1993). NOTES 1 As a consequence of a reform process within the International Telecommunication Union (IT), the CCITT ceased to exist as o

5、f 28 February 1993. In its place, the ITU Telecommunication Standardization Sector (IT-T) was created as of 1 March 1993. Similarly, in this reform process, the CCIR and the IFRB have been replaced by the Radiocommunication Sector. In order not to delay publication of this Recommendation, no change

6、has been made in the text to references containing the acronyms “CCITT, CCIR or IFRB” or their associated entities such as Plenary Assembly, Secretariat, etc. Future editions of this Recommendation will contain the proper terminology related to the new ITU structure. 2 telecommunication administrati

It builds on the architecturai principles of IN as described in the Q. 120x-Series Recommendations. The CS-1 Recommendations (Q.121-Series) form a useful basis

15、for achieving implementation experience. As with any project of this size and complexity, it can be anticipated that there may be some difficulties in intenvorking the various implementations of IN CS-1 physical elements.

17、 set 1 is the frrst standardized stage of the intelligent network (IN) as an architectural concept for the creation and provision of telecommunications services. This Recommendation gives an introduction to capability set 1 (CS-1) by providing an overview and definition of CS-1 and by describing its

18、 main characteristics and overall capabilities. 2 Phased standardization The intelligent network (IN) is an architectural concept for creation and provisioning of new services which is characterized by: a) extensive use of information processing techniques; b) efficient use of network resources; c)

19、modularization and reusability of network functions; d) integrated service creation and implementation by means of modularized, reusable network functions; e) flexible allocation of network functions to physical entities; f) portability of network functions among physical entities; g) standardized c

20、ommunications between network functions via service independent interfaces; h) service subscribers control of some subscriber-specific service attributes; i) service user control of some user-specific attributes; j) standardized management of service logic. The implementation of the IN architecture

21、will facilitate the rapid introduction of new services. Its architecture can be applied to various types of telecommunications networks, which inclue: public switched telecommunications network (PSTN). public switched packet data network (PSPDN), mobile, and integrated services digital networks (N-

22、and B-ISDN). The ultimate IN is an evolving target, therefore in order to take full advantage of the technological possibilities at a c given point in time it is necessaty to define specific phases in the evolution to a target architecture. This phased approach is shown in Figure 1. This Recommendat

23、ion provides the description of CS-1 at time Ti as represented in Figure 1. 3 General description and scope of CS-1 3.1 Criteria for CS-1 CS-1 defines an initial subset of IN Capabilities that meet the following general criteria: a) b) CS-1 is a subset of the target intelligent network architecture;

24、 CS-1 is a set of defuitions of capabilities that is of direct use to both manufacturers and network operators; Recommendation Q.1211 (03/93) 1 CCITT RECMN*Q.L23L 93 Bi 4862593 0580900 921 W Capabilities sels Time I I I b Ti T2 TX T1137310-9i/dOl Areas: 0 IN concept and modelling Definitim of next C

25、C Recommendation for CS-X FIGURE UQ.1211 Sequencing of capability sets c) CS-1 provides network capabilities to support services either defined or in the process of being defined by CCITT (e.g . universal personal telecommunications service, freephone, and virtual private network services such as pr

26、ivate numbering plan). CS-1 also provides capabilities to support the introduction of services which may neither be standardized by CCIIT, nor be part of the proposed set of targeted services: ) CS-1 is the first standardized stage of evolution based upon the existing technology base and on evolvabi

27、lity requirements addressed in 3.2. The CS-1 architecture may be supported over PSTN, ISDN, and mobile networks. 3.2 Evolution of CS-1 The CS- 1 Recommendations (Q. 12lx-Series) form a useful basis for achieving implementation experience. As with any project of this size and complexity, it can be an

28、ticipated that there may be some difficulties in interworking the various implementations of IN CS-1 physical elements. In order that the IN objective for working in a multi-vendor environment may be fully achieved, the IN CS-1 Recommendations text may go through some future revision in die light of

29、 implementation experience. The CS-1 architecture takes into account the evolution requirement, i.e., it supports the CS-1 targeted services but its fiinctionalities are designed to evolve towards the future capability sets (CS-2 and beyond). Therefore, the CS-1 capabilities are defined without any

30、assumptions that are known to limit their ability to evolve into future capability sets. 2 Recommendation Q.1211 (03/93) _ CCITT RECMN*Q.3233 93 E 48b2593 0580903 8b8 4 Overview of CS-1 Recommendations Table 1 contins u11 overview of the Recommendations that are specifically related to CS-1: TABLE U

32、1 Intelligent network interface specifications for capability set 1 Intelligent network users guide for capability set 1 5 Service aspects Although, by nature, the IN is 8 service independent architecture, it is relevant to describe the general CS-1 service cnpabilities. The services and service fea

33、tures that are to be supported by CS-1 are fundamental to the CS-1 service independent building blocks (SIBS), call processing model and service control principles. 5.1 Type A and Type B services CS-1 capabilities are intended to support services and service features that fall into the Gitegory of s

34、ingle ended”, “single point of control” services referred to as Type A, while all other services are placed in a category called Type B. The following definitions apply: A single-ended service feature ,applies to one and only one party in a call and is orthogonal (independent) at both the service an

35、d tcplogy levels to any other parties that may be participating in the call. orthogoiiality allows another instance of the same ur a different single-ended service feature to apply to another party in the srne call as long as the service feature instances do not have feature interaction problems wit

36、h each other. Single point of control describes a control relationship where the sune aspects of a cdl are influenced by one and only cine service control function at .any point in time (see also 6.2.1). CS-1 standards do not encompass “Type B” services for the following reasons: a) )periticmd compl

37、exity In Type B services, several IN subscribers may be associated within a single call. During the call, subsaibers may be added or dropped. These associations take place physically in the switches involved in the call (SSF/CCF functions) under the control of an SCF. The SCF will need rules to hand

38、le feature arbitration between subscribers involved in the call (e.g. incompatible screening lists). This may have to involve real-time consultations between the SCFs that “represent” the various parties involved in the call. Rules will Aso be required to handle topological decisions (e.g. which phy

39、sical switches should be chosen to “join” groups of subscribers scattered around a network?). Recommendation Q.1211 (03/93) 3 CCITT RECMNPQ-3233 93 W 4062593 0500902 7T4 M b) Itiiplementation complexity Type B services may involve manipulation of switch connection resources by service logic located

40、in an SCF. This means that an ?abstracted? view of the switch?s connection resources must be made available to external service logic. Models have been formulated to accommodate appropriate ?abstracted? views, but to date these are theoretical proposals. A very large investment in switch software re

41、design may k required to realize such models. In contrast, the switch software modifications to accommodate Type A services are relatively modest in scope and are well understood. c) Control complexity Type A services are characterized by a relatively simple control relationship between SSF and SCF.

42、 The SSF is a ?client? for service-related information provided by the SCF, however, the switch retains connection control at all times. In contrast, the control relationship between SCF and SSF in Type B services may require the sharing of connection control between the switch and external service

43、logic. The information flows need to be rich in parameters to manage what is essentially a peer-peer, distributed processing relationship. As there are considerable differences in operational, implementation, and control complexity between Type A and Type B services, CS-1 is targeted to support Type

44、 A services only. There are some circumstances in which it will be possible to apply ?Typ, A? IN technology to certain aspects of ?Type B? services. This applies to switch-based services in general, whether these services be of ?Type A? or ?Type B?, and to ?Type B? services in general, whether these

45、 be switch-based or CS-x based. Further detail can be obtained from Recommendation Q.1214. 5.2 Target sets of CS-1 services and service features Tables 2 and 3 contain the target sets of CS-1 services and service features. The target sets can be used to identi and verify the service-independent capa

46、bilities of CS-1. Examples of relationships and mappings between these CS-1 services and service features are shown in Annex A. Annex B provides short prose descriptions of targeted services and service features. These were used to develop the current Q. 12lx-Series Recommendations as CS-1 is intend

47、ed to support evolutionary new services. The descriptions provided for the targeted services and service features are for the above-mentioned purposes only and are not to be used by service designers for service creation. Definitions of ?service? and ?service feature?: A service is a stand-alone com

48、mercial offering, characterized by one or more core service features, and can be optionally enhanced by other service features. A service feature is a specific aspect of a service that can also be used in conjunction with other serviceshervice features as part of a commercial offering. It is either

49、a core part of a service or an optional part offered as an enhancement to a service. 5.3 Network support of CS-1 services The services are to be supported over various networks. For IN CS-1 applications the following networks are considered: i) PSTN ii) ISDN (Public and private networks); iii) PLMN. 4 Recommendation Q.1211 (03/93) CCITT RECMN*Q*1211 93 Y862591 0580703 630 TABLE 2/Q.1211 Target set of CS-1 services Abbreviated dialling Account card calling Automatic alternative hilling Call distribution Call forwarding Call rerouting
