6、e IMT-2000 Family Member, “GSM-evolved UMTS Core Network“. This release of the Family Member is known to the Standards Development Organizations (i.e., ARIB, CCSA, ETSI, ATIS, TTA, TTC) as the “3GPP Release 8“. Earlier releases, known as “3GPP Release 99“, “3GPP Release 4“, “3GPP Release 5“, “3GPP R
7、elease 6“, and “3GPP Release 7“, of this Family Member are specified in Recommendations ITU-T Q.1741.1, Q.1741.2, Q.1741.3, Q.1741.4, and Q1741.5, respectively, while other IMT-2000 Family Members are specified in other ITU-T Recommendations in the Q.174x series. This Recommendation combines and ass
8、ociates the relevant standards from a number of Standards Development Organizations for the core network for this IMT-2000 Family Member into a global Recommendation. Source Recommendation ITU-T Q.1741.6 was approved on 29 October 2009 by ITU-T Study Group 13 (2009-2012) under Recommendation ITU-T A
9、.8 procedures. Keywords Core network, GSM, IMT-2000, Release 8, third generation system, UMTS. ii Rec. ITU-T Q.1741.6 (10/2009) FOREWORD The International Telecommunication Union (ITU) is the United Nations specialized agency in the field of telecommunications, information and communication technolo
10、gies (ICTs). The ITU Telecommunication Standardization Sector (ITU-T) is a permanent organ of ITU. 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 Telecommu
11、nication Standardization Assembly (WTSA), which meets every four years, establishes the topics for study by the ITU-T study groups which, in turn, produce Recommendations on these topics. The approval of ITU-T Recommendations is covered by the procedure laid down in WTSA Resolution 1. In some areas
12、of information technology which fall within ITU-Ts purview, the necessary standards are prepared on a collaborative basis with ISO and IEC. NOTE In this Recommendation, the expression “Administration“ is used for conciseness to indicate both a telecommunication administration and a recognized operat
13、ing agency. Compliance with this Recommendation is voluntary. However, the Recommendation may contain certain mandatory provisions (to ensure e.g. interoperability or applicability) and compliance with the Recommendation is achieved when all of these mandatory provisions are met. The words “shall“ o
14、r some other obligatory language such as “must“ and the negative equivalents are used to express requirements. The use of such words does not suggest that compliance with the Recommendation is required of any party. INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHTS ITU draws attention to the possibility that the practic
15、e or implementation of this Recommendation may involve the use of a claimed Intellectual Property Right. ITU takes no position concerning the evidence, validity or applicability of claimed Intellectual Property Rights, whether asserted by ITU members or others outside of the Recommendation developme
16、nt process. As of the date of approval of this Recommendation, ITU had not received notice of intellectual property, protected by patents, which may be required to implement this Recommendation. However, implementers are cautioned that this may not represent the latest information and are therefore
17、strongly urged to consult the TSB patent database at http:/www.itu.int/ITU-T/ipr/. ITU 2010 All rights reserved.

ITU-T Q.1741.6 (10/2009) 1 Recommendation ITU-T Q.1741.6 IMT-2000 references to Release 8 of GSM-evolved UMTS core network 1 Scope This Recommendation identifies the IMT-2000 Family Member, “GSM-evolved UMTS Core Network“. This release of the Famil
39、y Member is known to the Standards Development Organizations (i.e., ARIB, CCSA, ETSI, ATIS, TTA, TTC) as the “3GPP Release 8“. The core network interfaces identified in this Recommendation and the radio interfaces and radio access interfaces which are identified in ITU-R M.1457-8 constitute a comple
40、te system specification for the 3rd generation mobile system for terrestrial usage of this IMT-2000 Family Member. It is the intent of the ITU-T that the references in this Recommendation are only to specifications that specify the network aspects of this IMT-2000 Family Member. In the event that a
41、referenced specification also includes material that specifies any of the radio aspects of this IMT-2000 family member, ITU-R M.1457-8 shall take precedence. NOTE The structure and content of this Recommendation have been organized for ease of use by those familiar with the original source material;
42、 as such, the usual style of ITU-T Recommendations has not been applied. 2 References1The following ITU-T Recommendations and other references contain provisions which, through reference in this text, constitute provisions of this Recommendation.
