Purpose and Scope of DocumentThis document provides an outline of the Program Management functions necessary for T1S1.6to complete its mission for the development of national Number Portability requirements. Inaddition, this document identifies other relevant extern
9、al standards bodies and forums, and listsexisting Committee T1 and TIA standards and related technical reports affected by NumberPortability requirements.2. CharterTechnical Sub-Committee (TSC) T1S1 was designated 1 as the lead TSC for national NumberPortability requirements. Within T1S1, the respon
10、sibility for national Number Portabilityrequirements and its program management was assigned to a new Working Group (WG)T1S1.6, whose mission and scope are described below.3. T1S1.6 MissionThe mission of T1S1.6 is the development of national Number Portability technicalrequirements for both wireline
11、 and wireless environments. T1S1.6 also has the responsibilityfor coordination and program management for Number Portability. In addition, T1S1.6 willpropose US Number Portability positions for submission to ITU-T and other internationalstandards-making organizations.4. T1S1.6 ScopeThe national NP r
12、equirements as developed by T1S1.6 will not exceed the capabilities specifiedin the FCC mandate (CC Docket 95-116) on NP. The scope of T1S1.6 efforts will be limited toservice provider portability. The network elements for which requirements will be written includeswitching systems and NP database p
13、latforms. Additionally, requirements to support billing,operator services, network signaling (e.g., NP Global Title Translation) and the NP applicationfunctions will be included.T1S1.6 also has the responsibility for overall coordination and program management forNumber Portability. The coordination
14、 function will involve multiple TSCs and industry fora toidentify requirements documents, standards and Technical Reports related to number portabilitythat already exist or are under development. An objective will be to integrate applicablerequirements and information into the set of national requir
15、ements under development. Thisrequirements set may in turn generate a need for new or changed standards.1 Approved by T1 Advisory Group (T1AG) decision on October 22, 1997, endorsed by Committee T1at the October 24-25, 1997 meeting.25. CustomersThe following groups are expected to use the Number Por
16、tability requirements and relatedstandards:1) Service Providers (in determining interconnection and service arrangements),2) Equipment and Software Vendors (in development of products),3) Regulatory Bodies (in understanding the Number Portability environment) and4) Technical Standards Committees (in
17、 creating/modifying Standards).Each of these groups also serve to provide input to the NP requirements, and will be notifiedperiodically of progress on requirements.6. Development ObjectivesThe following are development objectives for the national Number Portability requirements:1) Identify existing
18、 industry NP documents and standards2) Provide ongoing liaisons and reports to affected industry bodies3) Program manage T1S1.6 activities4) Develop national NP requirements (i.e., billing, switching, database and operator services)5) Develop national requirements for Number Pooling (1000s block)6)
