ITU-T Q.3932.4 (05/2016) FOREWORD The International Telecommunication Union (ITU) is the United Nations specialized agency in the field of telecommunications, information and communication technologies (ICTs). The ITU T
10、elecommunication 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 Telecommunication Standardizati
11、on 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 of information technol
12、ogy 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 operating agency. Compliance
13、 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“ or some other obligat
14、ory 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 RIGHTSITU draws attention to the possibility that the practice or implementation o
15、f 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 development process. As of the
16、 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.

32、.1 Delay probability This clause defines delay parameters related to ISDN/PSTN, IMS and VoLTE. The values are based on the values in ITU-T Q.543 and ETSI TS 101 563. 4.2 Loads definitions The ISDN/PSTN, IMS and VoLTE reference loads definitions and values described in Table 1 to Table 9 are the refe
33、rence loads definitions described in ITU-T Q.543 and ETSI TS 101 563. The derived ISDN procedures are based on the ISDN/SIP interworking ETSI TS 183 036 procedures, the derived PES procedures are based on the IMS/PES Emulation specification ETSI TS 183 043 Rec. ITU-T Q.3932.4 (05/2016) 3 and the der
34、ived SIP procedures are based on session initiation protocol (SIP) and session description protocol (SDP) ITU-T Q.3403 v.1. Figure 1 IMS/LTE basic configuration Figure 2 AGCF/VGW session processing models Figure 2 illustrates the session processing model used by the AGCF and VGW functional entities.
35、 An AGCF is modelled as comprising ITU-T H.248 Media Gateway Controller (MGC), Feature Manager (FM), and SIP UA functionality. An AGCF interfaces to a Media Gateway (MG) and also to the S-CSCF (via P1 and Mw reference points respectively). 4 Rec. ITU-T Q.3932.4 (05/2016) A functional modelling of th
36、e VGW contains an entity similar to ITU-T H.248 Media Gateway Controller, a Feature Manager, a SIP UA, and MGW functionality. The VGW interfaces to the P-CSCF using the Gm reference point. The SIP UA functionality provides the interface to the other components of the IMS-based architecture. It is in
37、volved in registration and session processing as well as in event subscription/notification procedures with application servers. The MGC functionality enable the session processing functionality to interface with existing line signalling such as analogue signalling or DSS1. Session and registration
38、processing in the AGCF or VGW involves two halves: ITU-T H.248 based MGC processing and SIP user agent (UA) processing (see Figure 2). MGC processing focuses on the interactions with the media gateway functions, while SIP UA processing focuses on the interactions with the IMS components. The feature
39、 manager (FM) coordinates the two processing activities. 4.3 Parameter requirements (performance design objectives) IMS/PES/VoLTE exchange implementations shall comply with the requirements given in Table 1 to Table 9. NOTE The values of the performance design objectives (reference load A and refere
40、nce load B), which are contained in this Recommendation and found in Table 1to Table 9, are taken from ETSI TS 101 563. 5 Rec.
