NGN Definition

Next Generation Network (NGN): a packet-based network able to provide telecommunication services and able to make use of multiple broadband, QoS-enabled transport technologies and in which service-related functions are independent from underlying transport-related technologies. It enables unfettered access for users to networks and to competing service providers and/or services

  • f their choice. It supports generalized mobility

which will allow consistent and ubiquitous provision

  • f services to users.

From ITU-T Recommendation Y.2001

Effects of Separation: the good, the bad and the challenge

  • Good:
  • Any service over a single IP transport network
  • Bad:
  • Two different levels of control, authentication, admission,

charging, etc.

  • Challenge:
  • S

ervice to transport coupling & mapping for: —QoS selection —QoS control —transport resource allocation — monitoring —accounting for usage

Solution: Resource & Admission Control Functions (Session 3)
