UPDATE ON ITU-R IMT-ADVANCED PROCESS

Summary of Oct. 2009 ITU-R WP5D #6

• Six proposals received by Oct 7, the IMT-Advanced proposal submission deadline– Proposal based on 802.16 (from IEEE, Japan, TTA)– Proposal based on LTE-Advanced (from 3GPP, Japan,

China*)• Reviewed all proposal submissions at the 6th ITU-R

WP5D meeting of 14-21 Oct in Dresden, Germany• Considered as two technologies

– IEEE Technology (three proposals are technically identical)– 3GPP Technology (three proposals are technically

identical)• All proposals considered “complete submissions”• Step 3 (proposal submissions) completed and Step 4

(external evaluations) initiated• Correspondence Group (CG) formed to facilitate

external evaluations• Evaluation Groups presented in 3rd IMT-Advanced

Workshop* China proposed only TDD component of LTE-Advanced (TD-LTE-Advanced)

Summary of Feb. 2010 ITU-R WP5D #7

• 121 IEGs submitted preliminary evaluation reports

• IMT.RADIO – See C802.16-10/0014

• IMT.RSPEC – See C802.16-10/0014

• 2nd IEEE IMT-Advanced Evaluation Group Coordination Meeting – 17 May 2010, Beijing, China

WP 5D meetings

Step 1: Issuance of the circular letterStep 2: Development of candidate RITs and SRITsStep 3: Submission/Reception of the RIT and SRIT proposals

and acknowledgement of receiptStep 4: Evaluation of candidate RITs and SRITs

by evaluation groups

Step 5: Review and coordination of outside evaluation activitiesStep 6: Review to assess compliance with minimum requirementsStep 7: Consideration of evaluation results, consensus building

and decision Step 8: Development of radio interface Recommendation(s)

Critical milestones in radio interface development process:(0): Issue an invitation to propose RITs March 2008(1): ITU proposed cut off for submission October 2009

of candidate RIT and SRIT proposals

(2): Cut off for evaluation report to ITU June 2010(3): WP 5D decides framework and key October 2010

characteristics of IMT-Advanced RITs and SRITs(4): WP 5D completes development of radio February 2011
