Technical studies have been made on the future development of IMT-2000 and systems beyond IMT-2000, mainly by SG8 and WP8F of the ITU-R. In response to their study results, ITU-R held a CPM in November 2002 to create a Report to be submitted to WRC-03. In addition, a WRC preparatory meeting was held in February 2003 in the Asia Pacific region, at the auspices of APT.
