3 European Standardization System Recognized Organizations in Europe (only 3!)  CEN European Committee for Standardization Covers a lot of sectors  CENELEC European Committee for Electro-Technical Standardization Covers mainly the electro technical sector  ETSI European Telecommunications Standards Institute Covers mainly telecommunication and electronic communication networks and services

4 Geography of European Standardization

5 Standardization is Networking on a Global Level ITU ISO CEN ETSI CENELEC IEC National Standards Bodies International level National level European level Industry and other stakeholders

6 Who is ETSI? Why ETSI?

7 In the EU  Policy Making  European Commission  ETSI works closely with EC and many other organisations  Regulation  NRAs  ETSI provides technical specifications to support regulation  Frequency issues  CEPT  ETSI collects, co-ordinates and contributes frequency requirements for the ICT community  ICT Standards  ETSI  ETSI seeks to produce global standards  20% ETSI Members have no established operations in EU

8  ICT Standards organization, private not for profit  Global membership (650+ Members, 80% industry, 20% overseas)  Track record of worldwide industrial hits (fixed, mobile, broadcast)…  …enabled also by a recognized IPR policy (FRAND)  Favors partnerships (regional/technical)  Founding partner and home of the 3GPP (EU/US/China/Japan/Korea)  Broadcast (EBU/CLC)  Interoperability services (test specs, test suites, interop testing- ”PlugTests”)  Forum hosting  All standards available free of charge …ETSI, who are they exactly?

12 ETSI Partnership Projects Mobile Broadband for Emergency and Safety Applications Formerly: Public Safety Partnership Project  initiated by ETSI Project TETRA (under the name of DAWS)  and by TIA and the Association of Public-Safety Communications Officials (APCO) under APCO's Project 34. Organizational Partners: ETSI, TIA (USA) Observers: ISACC (Canada), TTA (Korea) projectmesa.org

13 Nortel “why ETSI?”  « Direct participation by members  The place where our customers and regulators go  Innovative, well respected and well connected world wide  Shared development cost with the complete industry  A great place to see and drive the convergence of IT and electronic communications based on complete system design expertise”

14 Vodafone- Why ETSI?  “Has highest reputation as the place for telecom standards  Basis of many world-renowned standards such as GSM from 3GPP, with Mobile Competence Centre  Partnership with US, Japan, China, Korea  Recognised by EU and ITU – and most other standards bodies  Overheads lower with more projects to share these costs”

15 Changing Environment for Standardization

16 Changing environment: our analysis 1.Fragmentation of standards making market  End to end monolithic standards are behind us 2.Usage/applications-driven standardization  « Shopping » for standards  Interoperability ex-post 3.So long the split standards makers/standards takers  China, Latin America…who’s next?

17 Changing environment: our analysis 4. ICT increasingly software intensive  Priority: develop systems, components, products FAST  Interoperability (of components) comes next 5.Stakes moving up towards middleware  Infrastructure converging (IMS)  Point of gravity of convergence IT/telco/broadcast/CE is in middleware - e.g. Mobile TV  Convergence: no picnic, rather plate tectonics 6.Open standards are necessary, but not sufficient  To start with, there are plenty of very good ones to choose from  What standards to enable the creation of value/industrial ecosystems around a technology?

18 We believe it’s about Interoperability But the very meaning of “Interoperability” changes  From specifying end to end systems to a logic of assembling (standard & non-standard) building blocks  From standardizing interfaces ex ante to addressing interoperability of components ex post Standardization has always been about interoperability

19 We believe it is about standards integration (1)  In a fragmented standards making market an agreed architecture is key to achieve interoperability.  ETSI focus is on technical interoperability (inter- working)  Ex-ante specs: requirements, architecture, protocol (profiles)  Ex-post specs: conformance tests, interoperability tests  Standards architect: system integrator (design for interoperability) and project coordinator

20 Standards integration (2)  Efficient collaboration with other standards bodies and forums is a pre-requisite  e.g. GSMA, OMA, WIMAX forum etc  Development of the ETSI interoperability “product line”  In addition to conformance testing and IOT  Creation of a group on IOP (Interoperability process) to coordinate generic aspects of interoperability  Hub of 3G/IMS/NGN test-beds in process  EU/LA initiative on interop profiles for e-gov applications

21  ETSI’s set of unique and complementary resources:  Technical Committee MTS (Methods for Testing and Specification) Development of methodologies, techniques and languages  ETSI’s Protocol and Testing Competence Centre ( PTCC ) Supports ETSI committees on the application of formal techniques in standards on a daily basis Development of test specifications (conformance and interop)  ETSI Plugtests™ Service Validation of standards and prototypes through interoperability events Testing and interoperability

22 We believe it is about dosage  What/when to standardize to meet players’ strategies?  Need for standards/interoperability when heterogeneous systems are converging (e.g FMC, Telecoms/broadcast/IT)  Market differentiation  standard bodies shouldn’t be over religious with interoperability  An interesting case  interoperability strategies of IM players entering the “telecom” market…and vice versa - see announcements at 3GSM (“15 cellcos take mobile IM interoperability pledge”)

23 Last but not least, it’s minding other variables of the equation  Competition/competitiveness  Global standards/regional blocks  EU policy making (incl. spectrum, competition, etc)  Impact of OSS  IPRs in standards  etc  “It’s not peace we’re seeking, it’s meaning”  Ears to the ground  Members driven changes

29 ETSI + TETRA

30 ETSI success story – TETRA TETRA IS AN OPEN DIGITAL TRUNKED RADIO STANDARD DEFINED BY ETSI TO MEET THE NEEDS OF THE MOST DEMANDING PROFESSIONAL MOBILE RADIO USERS TETRA HAS REACHED GREAT ACCEPTANCE IN THE WORLD AND IS WIDELY ESTABLISHED is one of ETSI’s « best-sellers » not only in Europe

31  Close cooperation with TETRA MoU Association in early 2000s resulted in an agreed plan for enhancing TETRA standard  After significant market changes and prioritisation the main deliverables of TETRA Release 2 are:  Wideband Data TEDS (TETRA Enhanced Data Service)  AMR Codec  Air Interface Enhancements, incl. Long range ‘Air-to-Ground’  Location Information Protocol (LIP) Application TETRA Release 2

32 TETRA Enhanced Data Service (TEDS)  The TEDS standard has been driven by User Requirements  TEDS is a new data service fully integrated with existing TETRA networks  The TEDS standard provides high speed data and multimedia service capabilities  Utilize new technologies  Increase futureproofness of TETRA as the standard for PMR and PAMR worldwide

33  The TEDS Standard is completed  The TETRA Release 2 programme has taken into account market changes that have taken place after its launch  TC TETRA has positioned itself to be the body engaged in the continuous enhancement of TETRA beyond Release 2 TETRA STANDARD TODAY AND TOMORROW
