Figure 6-1 – Network overview for the support of MOC applications in the NGN environment

The MOC device domain includes MOC devices and MOC gateways. MOC devices include various
types of devices as shown in Figure 6-1.
NOTE 1 – Proprietary devices (see Figure 11-1) are not shown in the above figure.

MOC devices can be categorized into general devices, data capturing devices, data carrying devices
and sensing or actuating devices [ITU-T Y.2060]. Examples for the different categories include:

– sensing or actuating devices: sensor, surveillance camera, meter, actuator with remote
control;

– data capturing devices and data carrying devices: identification terminal (ID terminal);
– general devices: mobile phone, personal computer, networked television.
MOC devices may access the NGN directly or via an MOC local network and the MOC gateways
attached to it. MOC devices or gateways may access the NGN by use of wire-line or wireless
connectivity.
MOC devices and gateways may access NGN via multiple access networks, for example to ensure
reliable communications.
The NGN domain not only provides access, data transportation, network control and
interconnection (with other networks) functions, but also provides MOC capabilities to support
multiple MOC applications.
MOC capabilities reuse or interact with NGN capabilities [ITU-T Y.2201], expose functionalities to
MOC applications through a set of standard interfaces, provide support to facilitate application
development and deployment through hiding network specificities to MOC applications. MOC
