Introduction

According to the Terms of Reference (ToR) of the Focus Group on Smart Sustainable Cities (FG‐SSC),
one of the objectives is to:
 Suggest future ITU‐T study items and related actions within the scope of the ITU‐T SG5 for
example on:

 Concepts, coverage, vision and use cases of smart and sustainable cities.

 Characteristics and requirements of smart and sustainable cities.
 Efficient services and network infrastructure of smart and sustainable cities, as well as its
architectural framework from the environmental impact point of view.

In this document an architectural framework of SSC is proposed.
