ITU-T Presentation to oneM2M

Bilel Jamoussi, PhDChief SGD/TSB

Geneva, 14 July 2015

WELCOME to

ITU the specialized agency of the UN for telecommunications and ICTs …

… that turns 150 years in 2015

Theme for all year celebrations: “Telecommunications and ICTs: drivers of innovation”

ITU allocates (1) frequency spectrum to different services, (2) satellite orbit assignments, (3) numbers

and identifiers

ITU develops standards

ITU assists developing countries in building up their ICT infrastructure

• 193 Member States and Regulatory Bodies

• 750 Sector Members (Companies, Business Associations, NGOs)

• 90+ Academia (Universities & Research Establishments)

ITU’s Membership: Public-private partnership

ITU’s Global Presence

ITU-T STANDARDIZATION TOPICS

ITU-T structure:ITU-T Study Groups

• (2) Operational aspects

• (3) Economic and policy issues

• (5) Environment and climate change

• (9) Broadband cable and TV

• (11) Protocols and test specifications

• (12) Performance, QoS and QoE

• (13) Future networks (incl. cloud)

• (15) Transport and access

• (16) Multimedia

• (17) Security

• (20) IoT & Smart Cities

ITU-T structure:ITU-T Focus Groups

Augment the Study Group system – Way to quickly react to ICT

standardization needs – Great flexibility of working

methods – Open to non-member participants

Current Focus Groups:

1. 5G/IMT-2020 Non-Radio

2. Aviation applications of cloud computing for flight data monitoring

3. Digital financial services

4. Smart sustainable cities

5. Bridging the gap: from innovation to standards

6. Smart water management

Digital Object Architecture Connecting devices to devices? … think about connecting information to

information ITU-T X.1255 “Framework for discovery of identity management (IDM) information”

Interoperability of heterogeneous IDM systems (RFID, MAC ADDRESS, IMEI, BAR CODES, IPV6 etc.) Interoperability of information from objects from different Sectors (e.g. cars, food,

devices)

Unique identity provided by “persistent identifiers” (Handle prefix/suffix )

Global resolution system (Handle System) Improve end cycles of devices (E-waste) Help to combat counterfeiting of goods

Bob Kahn

Smart cities: more digitalised and intelligent cities

Smart factory: IoT will provide automatic procedures

Smart Energy: The key issue is to detect ways to save energy.

IoT ApplicationsSome examples

Personal health devices Promising growing sector Enabled by ICTs Recommendation ITU-T H.810

Transposition of the Continua Health Alliance Design Guidelines

Cooperation with IEEE PHD WG Consultation with WHO

Joint meetings and workshops

17

Connecting medics with patient data

ITU’s Personal Health Care Standards: ITU-T H.810 (based on Continua Health Alliance)

Gives interoperability guidelines for personal health systems

32 new testing specifications for conformance testing with > 1000 test cases

100 products in ITU Product Conformity Database

Smart Sustainable Cities Focus Group on Smart Sustainable Cities• Agreed definition on SSC• 21 technical reports completed,

including• Guide for City Leaders • “A Framework to the SSC• Roadmap for SSC implementation

New ITU-T Study Group 20 on IoT and its applications including smart cities and communities (SC&C) ITU-T SG20 will be responsible for

international standards to enable the coordinated development of IoT technologies, including machine-to-machine communications and ubiquitous sensor networks.

Established by the Telecommunication Standardization Advisory Group (TSAG) in June 2015.

SG20: IoT and applications, smart cities

SG20 will develop standards and guidelines that leverage IoT technologies to address urban-development challenges.

Key work will include, inter alia: The standardization of end-to-end architectures for IoT and

mechanisms for the interoperability of IoT applications and datasets employed by various vertically oriented industry sectors.

First Meeting: When & Where: 19-23 October 2015, ITU, Geneva

22

Forum on Internet of Things: Empowering the New Urban Agenda

This forum will provide a platform to discuss why the Internet of

Things will be at the heart of smart city transformation.

When: Monday 19 October 2015Venue: ITU Headquarters, Geneva,

Switzerland

23

Collaboration Proposal with

• Adopt a similar approach to 3GPP collaboration with ITU– oneM2M designates a common member to input oneM2M

specifications to ITU-T SG20 as a Contribution– ITU-T SG20 considers the Contribution and goes through the normal

approval process of an ITU-T Recommendation– Once approved, TSB Publishes the ITU-T Recommendation

• ITU-T SGs build on the resulting ITU-T Recommendations
