1. 3GPP2 Specification Development David Crowe cdma2000 Technology Workshop June 14, 2012 – Guangzhou, China Draft Version 0.1

2. Specification Development Input from 3GPP2 members or partners. Stage 1 – Requirements Stage 2 – Message Flow Stage 3 – Detailed Encoding and Processing Testing – Conformance Technical Reports – Informative All specifications are voluntary even when described as ‘normative’

3. Getting Involved Specifications can be freely downloaded from http://www.3gpp2.org http://www.3gpp2.org 3GPP2 members can participate in specification development Contact xxxx for more information on membership and guest status

4. Stage 1 Requirements for new features Generic requirements defined by TSG-S Domain-specific requirements defined by TSG- C (radio interface), TSG-X (core network) or TSG-A (RAN/IOS) Published as informative reports

5. Stage 2 Describes a protocol at a high level through descriptive text and message flows. Usually integrated into a specification with Stage 3.

6. Stage 3 Detailed protocol specification Describes every bit and byte in every message in the protocol Defines actions for protocol end points

7. Test Specifications List types of test specs here…

8. Standardization 3GPP2 organizational partners may take 3GPP2 specifications and republish them as national standards. Regional or national requirements may be standardized independently by a 3GPP2 partner without a 3GPP2 specification.
