15、beyond those of IMT-2000. Such systems provide access to a wide range of telecommunication services including advanced mobile services, supported by mobile and fixed networks that are increasingly packet-based. IMT-Advanced systems support low to high mobility applications and a wide range of data r
16、ates in accordance with user and service demands in multiple user environments. IMT-Advanced also has capabilities for high-quality multimedia applications on a wide range of services and platforms providing a significant improvement in performance and quality of service. The key features of IMT-Adv
17、anced are: a high degree of commonality of functionality worldwide while retaining the flexibility to support a wide range of services and applications in a cost efficient manner; compatibility of services within IMT and with fixed networks; capability of interworking with other radio access systems
18、; high-quality mobile services; user equipment suitable for worldwide use; user-friendly applications, services and equipment; worldwide roaming capability; enhanced peak data rates to support advanced services and applications (100 Mbit/s for high and 1 Gbit/s for low mobility were established as t
19、argets for research)1. These features enable IMT-Advanced to address evolving user needs. The capabilities of IMT-Advanced systems are being continuously enhanced in line with user trends and technology developments. 1Data rates sourced from Recommendation ITU-R M.1645. Rep. ITU-R M.2198 3 The first
20、 invitation for the submission of proposals for candidate radio interface technologies (RITs) or a set of RITs (SRITs) for the terrestrial components of IMT-Advanced was announced by Circular Letter 5/LCCE/2 on 7 March 2008. The Circular Letter and its addenda, initiated an ongoing process to evalua
21、te the candidate RITs or SRITs for IMT-Advanced, inviting the formation of independent evaluation groups and the subsequent submission of evaluation reports on these candidate RITs or SRITs. The submission and evaluation process for IMT-Advanced development is included in the Revision 1 to Document
22、IMT-ADV/2 and is illustrated in Fig. A2-2, reproduced here for reference in understanding the steps of the IMT-Advanced process. The requirements, evaluation criteria and submission templates for the development of IMT-Advanced are included in Report ITU-R M.2133. The requirements related to technic
23、al performance for IMT-Advanced radio interface(s) are included in Report ITU-R M.2134. The guidelines for evaluation of radio interface technologies for IMT-Advanced are included in Report ITU-R M.2135-1. 2 Scope This Report is the record of the work performed after receipt of the proposals for IMT
24、-Advanced candidate RITs and SRITs, including the evaluation activity and the consensus building. This text contains the outcome and conclusions of Steps 4-7 of the IMT-Advanced process. These steps correspond to: Step 4: Evaluation of candidate RITs or SRITs by Evaluation Groups. Step 5: Review and
25、 coordination of outside evaluation activities. Step 6: Review to assess compliance with minimum requirements. Step 7: Consideration of evaluation results, consensus building and decision. The details of these steps are provided in Document IMT-ADV/2 Rev.12. This Report also states the decisions rea
26、ched by ITU-R on each of the candidate proposals and provides the technical characteristics of the RITs and SRITs for IMT-Advanced. Note that the actual specifications of the agreed IMT-Advanced radio interfaces will be contained in a future Recommendation which is being developed3. 2IMT-ADV documen

43、his Report. 5 Conclusion for Steps 4 to 7 5.1 Results of Steps 4, “Evaluation of candidate RITs or SRITs by Evaluation Groups” and Step 5, “Review and coordination of outside evaluation activities” Under Step 4 of IMT-Advanced process, candidate RITs or SRITs were evaluated by Independent Evaluation
44、 Groups that were registered in the ITU-R. In this step the candidate RITs or SRITs were assessed based on Reports ITU-R M.2133 and ITU-R M.2135-1. In Step 5, the ITU-R monitored the progress of the evaluation activities, and provided appropriate responses to problems or requests for guidance to fac
45、ilitate consensus building. To this end, ITU-R convened correspondence activities between the sixth and eighth meetings of Working Party 5D (i.e., from October 2009 to June 2010) and coordinated discussion between proponents and Independent Evaluation Groups, and among Independent Evaluation Groups.
46、 A total of fourteen Independent Evaluation Groups registered with ITU-R. Thirteen evaluation reports and two additional reports from the Independent Evaluation Groups were submitted and discussed in ITU-R under Steps 4 and 5. These evaluation reports from the respective Independent Evaluation Group
47、s are included in Annex 2 of this Report. Some of these reports addressed more than one technology proposal. Rep. ITU-R M.2198 7 5.1.1 Summary of the evaluations received for the 3GPP technology candidate It was concluded by ITU-R that the IMT-ADV/6 and IMT-ADV/9 candidate technology proposals were
48、technically identical to the IMT-ADV/8 candidate technology proposal and that a single evaluation would be applicable to all three proposals5. Under Steps 4 and 5 of the IMT-Advanced process, ITU-R coordinated the activities of fourteen Evaluation Groups and received seven full and one partial evalu
49、ation reports on the 3GPP FDD Technology, and six full and two partial evaluation reports for the 3GPP TDD technology, plus two additional reports. The independent evaluation groups utilized the defined ITU-R evaluation methodology and criteria established in the relevant ITU-R Reports covering IMT-Advanced. Some Independent Evaluation Groups developed additional assessment aspects as provided for in the IMT-Advanced process. ITU-R conclud
