UMTS: A concept born in RACE
• UMTS Task Force (led to UMTS Forum)– Requirements for Third Generation
• Allocation of FPLMTS (now IMT-2000) spectrum at WARC 92
• RACE II projects: CODIT and ATDMA– Advanced high data rate systems
http://www.umts-forum.org
UMTS: a system developed in ACTS
• FRAMES (=>ETSI)– 3 proposal out of the 5 considered in ETSI– 2 proposals retained in the historic
agreement of January 98• W-CDMA (FDD)
• TD/CDMA (TDD)
• RAINBOW (=> ITU-T)– backbone network considerations
• Radio Dependent and Radio Independent parts

To ensure the success of UMTS• A single, open, globally competitive standard...
– technical proposals evaluated by ETSI to select the best solution for submission to ITU
...building upon Second Generation legacy– leveraging existing infrastructure
• Harmonised pan-European deployment...– co-ordinated availability, licensing and use of spectrum to ensure pan-
European services and roaming
...driven by the market– timely and with the right degree of competition
• Harness support of current players and welcome new ones– to better face the risks associated with new technology and the inherent
market uncertainties
UMTS
Member of the IMT-2000 Family
• Third Generation systems are considered from a global perspective by ITU => IMT-2000
• UMTS will be a full member of the IMT-2000 family
• UMTS standard will be established in co-operation with other regional standards bodies
• Full support to the ITU process
UMTS will be a truly global Third Generation system
• Decision sets the regulatory framework for UMTS. Other systems are not addressed.
• The decision does not make UMTS the sole system that can be licensed.
• Neither the European Commission nor the Member States dictate the choice of a particular technology or standard. The choice is the exclusive responsibility of ETSI.
• The process in ETSI is transparent, fair and non discriminatory and the decision on UTRA was taken by full consensus.
• The European Commission supports the competition of technologies during the standardisation process. These are decisions taken by industrial players.
• 3rd Generation candidate systems other than UMTS may obtain recognition through ETSI
UMTS Decision
February 1999
– Mandates to CEPT for further spectrum allocation
– One-stop-shopping procedure for services where necessary
Early 2000
– WRC-2000 (decision on extending the IMT-2000 band)
1 Jan 2002
– Provision of basic UMTS services
2005
– Full UMTS service provision
UMTS European Timetable
• The European CommissionEuropean Commission is committed to support a successful preparation and deployment of UMTS, not forgetting the need for continued R&D in this area
• The Commission is aware of the essential and critical role of ETSIETSI in this process
• The CouncilCouncil calls on the Industry, in particular through the UMTS ForumUMTS Forum, to lead the development of UMTS from a Global perspective
• The Member StatesMember States are called upon to transpose into national law the UMTS Decision in all its consequences, and to timely free the necessary spectrum and establish the licensing procedures in a harmonised manner
Conclusions
Conclusions• Anticipating the needs of the citizens, global roaming• Preserving and securing the competitiveness of industry
and the excellence of its scientists and technologists• Meeting the internal market objectives, economic
integration, no market fragmentation, economies of scale,scope and integration
• Providing for sustainable growth and job creation• Achieving a presence in global wireless information society• Leaving technology and standards choices to the industrial
actors• Maintaining ITU as a catalyst of progress and focal point for
debate• Contributing to global co-operation
