ISTAG Recommendations
Importance of Mobile/Wireless communications, build on European leadership; At technological level: Integration fixed/mobile; Broadband availability; Mobile/Wireless IP; Scaleability; Embedded and distributed processes At Application/Service level: personalisation and service access independence to environment (Home, work, business, leisure, special needs)
Advanced integrated infrastructures are required
+ Work should be focused

WP 2000 ACTION LINES FOR MOBILE AND SATELLITE COMMUNICATIONS
Third Call
AL IV.5.2 Terrestrial wireless systems and networks AL: IV.5.3 Integrated satellite systems and services
Fourth Call
AL: IV.5.4: 4G system and network concepts for wireless communications
Fifth Call
AL IV.5.1: Re-configurable radio systems & networks AL: IV.5.5: Take-up Measures
IST Programme
WP 2000 ACTION LINES FOR MOBILE AND SATELLITE COMMUNICATIONS Action Lines in the 3rd Call should not be seen in isolation from those called in subsequent calls: Integration of various access technologies contributes to the further longer term evolution towards 4G (4the Call) and to the further evolution of software reconfigurable systems and networks (call 5). The subsequent calls should thus open the possibility to take maximum advantage of the work put in place through the first three calls.
IST Programme
AL IV.5.2 Terrestrial wireless systems and networks
Wireless systems and networks in relation to
: • provision of interactive multimedia services for mobile terrestrial broadcasting, the multimedia home platform, and broadband wireless access; Integration mobile broadcasting.
• evolution of UMTS phase 1 towards all IP networks
It includes
• seamless service provision and transparency across a multiplicity of radio accesses •IP mobility issues with support of discrete and cellular mobility ; QoS management, radio resource control mechanisms and protocols.
• optimisation of network performance in heterogeneous contexts with a variety of asymmetric services (e.g. call admission policy, customisation of user environment) and multiple radio environments, • associated technologies for efficient dynamic spectrum usage/sharing, • technological/system aspects for the roaming of location services exploiting terrestrial or satellite location data.
IST Programme
AL: IV.5.3 Integrated satellite systems and services
•
Enhancement of legacy systems, with provision of interactivity (Ku or Ka band), optimised caching architecture and competitive delivery of IP services.
•
