4.6.1.1 Circuit switched network
For off-network calls, interworking is necessary between IP and CSN and vice versa. Within the IPCablecom architecture this function is carried out by a CSN/PSTN Gateway. Applicable protocols are defined in TS 101 909-12 (see bibliography) and TS 101 909-13 [12]. As noted above, this gateway consists of three functiona...

4.6.1.2 IPCablecom packet switched network
For off-network calls, conversion will not usually be necessary but in some instances the MGW may need to perform bearer informational conversion functions such as vocoder, transcoder and/or echo cancellation functions on voice payloads at the network boundaries. Data Packets will be carried seamlessly through multiple...

4.7 Number portability
Within Europe and other markets where the suite of ETSI IPCablecom specifications may be implemented there is already a high penetration of fixed line telephone installations. Experience indicates that users are extremely reluctant to change their subscription if this necessitates the allocation of a new telephone numb...

5.1 General
The Media Terminal Adapter (MTA) is the device with interfaces between the end user equipment and the IPCablecom network. Although real time multimedia services will shortly comprise more services than voice telephony the scope of the present document is limited to consideration only of telephony equipment. An Embedded...

5.2 Specific functionality of the MTA
As noted, MTAs reside at the end user premises and are connected to the other IPCablecom network elements via the HFC access network. IPCablecom MTAs should support the Network Call Signalling (NCS) protocol, ITU-T Recommendation J.162 (see bibliography) as being developed by the TS 101 909 series. The MTA is an IPCabl...

The V5.2 interface gives the opportunity to use all the features and functionality of a traditional public switch (PSTN DLE). For Phase 1 of the implementation of IPCablecom it is expected that not all NCS network features and regulatory requirements will be available within the IPCablecom network. Therefore there is a...

6.3.1 Off-hook requirements (extension of existing requirements)
For "ringing without DC", the TE shall fulfil the following existing ringing related requirements: 1) TBR 021 [3], clause 4.6.1 requires the TE to accept breaks in the loop current during establishment of loop state. This requirement also applies when ringing without DC is used.

6.3.2 Off-hook requirements (new requirements)
For "ringing without DC", the TE shall fulfil the following (new) ringing related requirements: 1) When the TE goes off-hook during a ringing pulse, the TE shall draw an AC current, of which the effective value (rms) is equal or more than 36 mA. This should be tested at 25 Hz as well as 50 Hz. This requirement applies ...

6.3.3 On-hook to off-hook transition (new requirements)
1) The transition from the quiescent state to the loop state should happen in a controlled way (time, current values etc.). TBR 021 [3] describes this for the DC loop current situation. This item will describe requirements for the period while the transition happens during a ringing pulse. The transition from the on-ho...

4 Overview
The present document describes Requirements and Architectures for interworking between HIPERLAN/2 and certain 3G systems.

4.1 HIPERLAN Type 2
HIPERLAN Type 2 (HIPERLAN/2) is intended to provide local wireless access to IP, Ethernet, IEEE 1394, ATM and UMTS infrastructure by both stationary and moving terminals that interact with access points. The access points are connected to an IP, Ethernet, IEEE 1394, ATM or UMTS backbone network. A number of these acces...

4.2 Systems
UMTS is one of the major third generation mobile systems that is being developed and standardized by the 3rd Generation Partnership Project (3GPP) within the framework of International Mobile Telecommunications 2000 (IMT-2000), defined by the International Telecommunications Union (ITU). Other 3G systems include e.g. C...

5 Requirements
Requirements in this clause shall apply to all 3G systems. However, in some cases the requirements are more specific and it has to be specified to which 3G system they shall be adapted. Within the present document Packet Switched (PS) services are only considered.

5.1 General
It is foreseen that the HIPERLAN/2 network will be used in different network environments like: - corporate, where the user obtains a wireless connection to the office legacy LAN (typically via the Ethernet CL); - public, which are HIPERLAN/2 island networks in public places like airports, hotels, etc.; - home, where t...

5.2 Subscriber Data
The user can have a subscription to HIPERLAN/2 networks solely or to the combination of HIPERLAN/2 and 3G networks. For the interworking of HIPERLAN/2 networks with 3G, the networks could be owned by one single operator. Depending on the level of interworking, one scenario could also be that two different network opera...

5.3 Mobility and Handover
Handover from HIPERLAN/2 to 3G and vice versa shall be supported. HIPERLAN/2 supported user services may not be supportable in 3G networks and/or may not be robust enough for the supported handover requirements. Services that will suffer from the latter are typically time stringent, as for the former these may be servi...

5.4 End user device
The following points should be considered: 1) Usage and handling of the (U)SIM if applicable. 2) Communication between two mechanically different parts, within a single terminal; 3) The placement of common functions, like handover; 4) The different behaviour of a "terminal" comprising two parts, when connected or disco...

6 Level of Interworking
There are two fundamentally different ways of solving the interworking; entitled loose interworking and tight interworking in the present document. These two architectures are further discussed in the present document.

6.1 Loose Interworking
Loose coupling is defined as the utilization of HIPERLAN/2 as an access network complementary to current 3G access networks, utilizing the subscriber databases but without any user plane Iu type interface, i.e. avoiding the SGSN, GGSN nodes. The operator will still be able to utilize the same subscriber database for ex...

6.1.1 Security variants
There are two alternative approaches that can be supported by one common architecture as shown in figure 2, with only minor differences in the authentication server itself, referred to as NAI centric and (U)SIM centric. These are described in more detail in clause 7.2. The motivation for network operators to build up H...

7.1.2 Security
The security requirements can be divided into two parts: • for the HIPERLAN/2 network; • for the HIPERLAN/2 specific user equipment. The HIPERLAN/2 specific user equipment includes the HIPERLAN/2 card as well as a storage unit for HIPERLAN/2 security parameters. The requirements have been derived from [10].

7.1.2.1 HIPERLAN/2 network requirements
As noted above, implementation of some of these requirements may require changes to the HIPERLAN/2 standards. Identifying which of them is not compatible with the current HIPERLAN/2 standards needs to be carried out. A valid HIPERLAN/2 subscription shall be required to use the network. • It shall be possible to prevent...
