7、ents, SIP Application. ii Q series Supplement 55 (04/2007) FOREWORD The International Telecommunication Union (ITU) is the United Nations specialized agency in the field of telecommunications. The ITU Telecommunication Standardization Sector (ITU-T) is a permanent organ of ITU. ITU-T is responsible
8、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 Standardization Assembly (WTSA), which meets every four years, establishes the topics for study by the ITU-T st
9、udy 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 technology which fall within ITU-Ts purview, the necessary standards are prepared on a collaborative basi
10、s with ISO and IEC. NOTE In this publication, the expression “Administration“ is used for conciseness to indicate both a telecommunication administration and a recognized operating agency. Compliance with this publication is voluntary. However, the publication may contain certain mandatory provision
11、s (to ensure e.g. interoperability or applicability) and compliance with the publication is achieved when all of these mandatory provisions are met.

18、tions Signalling requirements at the interface between AS-FE and S-CSC-FE 1 Scope This Supplement provides signalling interface requirements for session services in NGN release 1 scope. The interface to be specified commonly lies between ASF/SSF (application support function/service support function
19、) and service components in SCF (service control function). In NGN Release 1 stage, the ASF/SSF includes AS-FE, APL-GW-FE, SS-FE and APL-SCM-FE, and the SCF includes S-CSCF for IP multimedia service component and call server for PIEA (PSTN/ISDN emulation architecture) component. The AS-FE is referre
20、d to as a representative FE among the other FEs in ASF/SSF. 2 References ITU-T H.248.1 ITU-T Recommendation H.248.1 (2002), Gateway control protocol: version 2.

24、on server functions including hosting and executing services. The examples of AS-FE are call feature application servers, presence servers, various messaging servers, conferences servers, home application support servers and so on. NOTE In this Supplement, the AS-FE represents the functional entitie
25、s of ASF/SSF because they have functionally the same interface with S-CSC-FE. 3.2 serving call session control functional entity ITU-T Y.2012: It handles functionality related to session control of session setup, modification, and teardown, and routing of session messages. It performs the functions
26、of registration, service triggering, determination of routing of 2 Q series Supplement 55 (04/2007) session control messages. The S-CSC-FE maintains a session-related state as needed by the network operator for support of services. NOTE In this Supplement, the S-CSC-FE represents the functional enti
27、ties of SCF including IMS-based and call-server-based service components, because they have functionally the same interface with AS-FE. 3.3 service trigger ITU-T Q.1290: A stimulus for initiating an action in support of a service on reception of a message or information. 4 Abbreviations and acronyms

32、 architecture for controlling session application services based on the NGN architecture ITU-T Y.2012. It highlights the reference point between ASF/SSF and two SCFs which are the IMS service component and the call-server-based PIEA service component. The interface A-S4 is defined in NGN functional
33、architecture ITU-T Y.2012 and used to deliver information related to service control, including service triggering and call-control-related information. The A-S4 interface corresponds to the ISC for the IP multimedia service component ITU-T Y.2021, and I-9 for the PSTN/ISDN emulation service compone
34、nt ITU-T Y.2031. The A-S4, ISC and I-9 are the equivalent interfaces between APL-GW-FE, APL-SCM-FE, SS-FE and AS-FE in ASF/SSF and S-CSCF or SIF, RF and CCF in SCF. The SIF/CCF/RF of PIEA and S-CSCF of IMS correspond to S-CSC-FE ITU-T Y.2012 and provide the same interface function to the ASF/SSF. Si
35、nce the IMS-based PIEA and IMS components have the same architecture from the viewpoint of interface with AS-FE, the service components are divided into IMS-based and call-server-based PIEA service components in Figure 5-1.

37、s This clause describes the general requirements for the interface between AS-FE and S-CSC-FE. Justification references for each item are noted within brackets. 1) The interface is required to support multimedia session services including voice, video, text, etc. ITU-T Sup.1-Y. 2) The interface is r
38、equired to support QoS control during session set-up ITU-T Sup.1-Y. 3) The interface is required for the AS-FE to be independent from the details of the network, such as network protocols ITU-T Y.2201. 4) The interface is required to use SIP protocol for service control ITU-T Sup.1-Y. 5) The interfa
39、ce is required to process multiple sessions simultaneously and each session should be uniquely identified ITU-T Y.2201. 6) The interface is required to identify each session endpoint using the session identification mechanism ITU-T Y.2201. 7) The interface is required for the AS-FE to register the p
40、ossible service lists to provide, and un-register the lists when it does not provide the services any more ITU-T Y.2012. 8) The interface is required to support a flexible service trigger mechanism and to exchange call and service control related information ITU-T Y.2012. 9) The interface is require
41、d for AS-FE to provide disconnection reason information to S-CSC-FE in case of call disconnection. 10) The interface is required for AS-FE to connect and control MRC-FE through the S-CSC-FE ITU-T Y.2012. 11) The interface is required for AS-FE to receive the session event notification such as succes
42、sful connection, called party busy, network busy, connection fail, off-hook, on-hook, flash hook, or mid-call event from the S-CSC-FE. 12) The interface is required for S-CSC-FE and AS-FE to deal with service interaction problems when multiple services are invoked in AS-FEs simultaneously. 7 Applica
43、tions This Supplement specifies the signalling requirements for NGN session-based application services. NGN release 1 scope ITU-T Sup.1-Y includes the following session services: real-time conversational voice services; messaging services, such as IM, SMS, MMS, etc.; push-to-talk over NGN (PoN); pre
44、sence and general notification services; PSTN/ISDN emulation services; PSTN/ISDN simulation services. ITU-T Y.2211 specifies IMS-based real-time conversational multimedia service requirements, service features, service architectures and implementation scenarios. It includes a comprehensive set of se
45、ssion-related service features, PSTN/ISDN simulation services, and IP multimedia application services. The AS-FEs hosting the above services and S-CSC-FE to provide session services should satisfy the signalling requirements specified in this Supplement. Q series Supplement 55 (04/2007) 5 8 S-CSC-FE
