Standardization Restructuring
in ITU-T
 RevCom was established in WTSA-12 in order to
review ITU-T strategic plan and the existing ITU-T
SG structure and prepare a strategic restructuring
proposal to WTSA-2016
 Since ITU-T SG restructuring will impact the future
TTC standardization activities, TTC contributes to
ITU-T RevCom discussion by expanding mandates
of the existing Global Collaboration AG (GCAG)
- contribution to ITU-T TSAG and RevCom
- global collaboration with CJK, APT ASTAP, GSC,
ITU-T etc.

TTC E-Health WP
Established in July 2012 to discuss the contributions to the
ITU-T Focus Group on the M2M service layer (FG M2M).
The WP collected information related to e-Health through invited talks:
•Solutions and initiatives of Continua Health Alliance
•Medical information standardization trend
•ITU-WHO mHealth for NCDs Initiative
•Current Status and Issues of Global Health, WHO
•e-Health initiatives in India
The WP held TTC seminar “Standardization of e-Health” in June 2014.
The FG M2M was terminated in April 2014 and the
deliverables were transferred to the relating ITU-T SGs.
The follow-up work will be performed by the corresponding
WGs in TTC.

TTC NGN & FN WG
(IoT/M2M Activity)
NGN&FN WG studies IoT/M2M for ITU-T standardization:
to contribute to the IoT related standardization in ITU-T such as Rec
Y.2066 “IoT common requirements” and the regional activity, namely CJK
IoT-WG.
to consider “Open Data” as an important issue.
Open Data:
(1) the data format must be machine-readable; and
(2) the data should be published under a usage rule that allows secondary
use”
http://www.soumu.go.jp/menu_seisaku/ictseisaku/ictriyou/opendata/eng/opendata01_e.html
IoT needs a specific attention in the context of “open data” so that our
society is benefitted by a set of globally harmonized standards.
Standardization issues:
e.g. Architecture, Data Model, Vocabulary, Identifier, API.

IMS interconnection
 TTC has been working on standardization of the Inter-IMS
NNI (II NNI) between future IMS networks of the domestic
operations.
 The specification is based on 3GPP TS 29.165 , Inter-IMS
Network to Network Interface (NNI) , Release 12 and the
first release of this specification was published on March
18th 2014 as TTC TS-1020.
The main objectives of this work are:
A) to help the operators to reach agreement on their
interconnection by selecting the option items listed in
3GPP TS 29.165 Annex C in advance, and
B) to clarify the signaling requirement on the basis of the
domestic circumstances.
