• GSC-10
• Background
• GSC established to promote development of Tcomm
  Rcomm global standards in areas of common
  interest High Interest Subjects (HISs).
• Regular meeting of Key International Standards
  Organisations called Participating Standards
  Organisations (PSOs).
• GSC attendees ACIF, ARIB, ATIS, CCSA, ETSI,
  ISACC, TIA, TTA, TTC, plus ITU (ITU-T ITU-R),
  Observers APT/ASTAP, ANSI, ATMF/MPLS, IEEE,
  IETF, ISO/IEC JTC1, IEC/SB4, CITEL, W3C, WIFIMAX
  FORUM, OMA.

• GSC-10
• Background
• GSC is a framework for exchanging information,
  establishing objectives to accelerate the process
  of global Tcomm Rcomm standards development,
  promoting global interconnectivity
  interoperability .
• GSC incorporates separate GTSC (Global Tcomms
  Standardization Collaboration) GRSC (Global
  Rcomms Standardization Collaboration) meetings.
• Joint GTSC/GRSC meetings (plenary) conducted
  prior to after GTSC and GRSC meetings.

4

• GSC-10
• Background
• PSOs prepare presentations on their activities
  associated with particular HISs.
• GSC discussions determine the importance and the
  status of HISs.
• Activities of significance become formal GSC
  Resolution(s).
• GSC Resolutions are carried over to the next GSC
  meeting cover agreed objectives approaches of
  the PSOs to progress standards development
  activities for that subject.

5

• GSC-10
• Included
• Intellectual Property Rights WG meeting.
• User Working WG meeting.
• First time Full day User Workshop.
• Plenary sessions prior to GTSC GRSC meetings
  used to address overarching topics and for
  reaching conclusions/ approving Resolutions.
• 104 attendees, hosted by ETSI.
• Many excellent presentations. All documents are
  available on website http//www.gsc.etsi.org/

  2000.

8

• GSC-10
• Focus
• HISs include ( which are of interest to APT)
• Emergency Communications.
• Security and Lawful Interception.
• Broadband Access.
• Internet Protocol over Wireless.
• Fora and Consortia.
• Home Networking.
• Open Standards Interoperability (new HIS).

9

• GSC-10
• Focus
• Other HISs include
• Radio Microphones.
• Software Defined radio Cognitive Radio.
• Wireless Priority Service for CDMA Systems raised
  as a potential new HIS, but this work can be
  adequately covered by the Emergency
  Communications Resolution.

10

• GSC-10
• Outcomes
• Approved GSC-10 Resolutions
• GSC-10/1 - Resolution on Systems Beyond
• IMT-2000.
• GSC-10/2 - Resolution on Emergency
  Communications.
• GSC-10/3 - Resolution on Broadband Access.
• GSC-10/4 - Resolution on Open Standards.
  (The need was Recognised to standardize on
  the term open standards the principle
  of open standards was reconfirmed).

11

• GSC-10
• Outcomes
• Approved GSC-10 Resolutions
• GSC-10/5 - Resolution on Facilitating Liaison
  in Relation to Measurement Methodologies
  for Assessing Human Exposure to RF Energy.
• GSC-10/6 - Resolution on Global Radio
  Standards Collaboration on Wireless Access
  Systems including Radio Local Area
  Network Ad Hoc Networking particularly
  for systems providing broadband wireless
  access.

12

• GSC-10
• Outcomes
• Approved GSC-10 Resolutions
• GSC-10/7 - Resolution on Supporting
  Automotive Crash Notification (ACN) by
  Public Wireless Communications Networks.
• GSC-10/8 - Resolution on Radio Microphone
  Cordless Audio Standardization.
• GSC-10/9 - Resolution on RFID Systems,
  Services Networking.
• GSC-10/10 - Resolution on PPDR.

13

• GSC-10
• Outcomes
• Approved GSC-10 Resolutions
• GSC-10/11 - Resolution on Global UWB
  Standardization
• GSC-10/12 - Resolution on NGN
• GSC-10/13 - Resolution on Cybersecurity
• GSC-10/14 - Resolution on Home Networking
• GSC-10/15 - Resolution on IPR Policies
• GSC-10/16 - Resolution on User Interests
• No need for a Resolution on Lawful Interception
  Cooperation between PSOs is working well.
• No need to revise Resolution on Location Based
  Services.

14

• GSC-10
• Outcomes
• User Workshop User needs in standardisation for
  better market opportunities - information
  exchange on user requirements and the related
  standards that are being developed
• focussed on the role of users in standardization
  policy their requirements to ensure the
  objective of Accessibility for All.
• continued momentum of recognising the importance
  of identifying incorporating user requirements
  in standards development process.

19

• GSC-10
• My Recommendations
• APT needs to take up invitation to attend GSCs
• provides insight awareness
• up to date briefing of what is happening
  world-wide standardization wise on high priority
  Tcomm Rcomm issues
• many of direct relevance to APT Work programs
• offers opportunity to talk with world and
  regional Standards Bodies representatives and
  experts in one place at one time
• enables cohesive standardization approach.

20

• GSC-10
• APT Secretariat Recommendations Action
• APT Members have the opportunity to
• be informed of developments on HISs through the
  APT Secretariat, or accessing GSC website
• ASTAP EGs can enhance work on like topics - much
  ASTAP EG work relates to HISs.
• APT Secretariat will assist APT Members ASTAP
  to keep abreast of GSC work on HISs.
