11.1 Broadband Network Gateway signalling
SG11 made progress on five work items related to Broadband Network Gateway, particularly Q.CNCG-IC, Q.BNG-IBN, Q.Sup.BNG-fd, Q.BNG-SFC and Q.BNG-SLA. Also, three new draft Recommendations were initiated during this meeting:
11.2 Signalling requirements for emergency telecommunications
SG11 started revision of Q.Suppl.62, Q.Suppl.69 and Q.Suppl.72. Also, the progress was achieved on draft Q.Req_Frame_RRDN “Requirements and framework for rapid response to sudden natural disasters in network” and ITU-T Q.IEM_arch_req “Reference architecture and signalling requirements for interactive emergency messaging through mobile network”.
11.3 Computing Power Network (CPN)
SG11 consented draft new Recommendation ITU-T Q.4144 (ex Q.CSO) “Signalling requirements for cross-operator service orchestration in computing power network”, advanced Q.cco-mec, Q.cpi and initiated a new work item Q.CPN-SA “Signalling architecture of computing power network”.
11.4 Signalling of IMT-2020 and beyond
SG11 made progress on Q.SP-IBMO, Q.PMEE, Q.PIRSO, Q.IMT2020-PFW, Q.PDS, Q.PDN, Q.SDTN, Q.PCNC-FMSC, Q.SPLC, Q.SPACDN, Q.SPMA, Q.IEC- SPDM, Q.AIDCS-SRA, Q.IEC-PDMF. Also, SG11 started the following new work items:
QSTR.SP-NEG: Protocol enhancement for supporting negotiation mechanism in IMT-2020 network and beyond
QSTR.SP-IMT2030: Signalling and Protocol Consideration on IMT-2030 networks
Q.SPDDP: Signalling and protocol for distributed data plane in future network including IMT-2020
Q.IEC-EEMA-LCM: Life cycle management interface of edge-aided energy management agent in microservice-based intelligent edge computing
- Q.det-IWC: Overlay signalling requirements and architecture for the operation and management of latency-deterministic industrial wireless communication services
11.5 Signalling for P2P communications
SG11 made progress on ITU-T Q.HP2P-svcfrw, Q.HP2P-fvcp, and X.mp2p-srdtf. It was recognized that the editors of the Q.HP2P-fvtp and Q.HP2P-fvcp remain actively engaged in open-source activities via a shared repository (
https://github.com/ITU-T-SG11-Q8).
11.6 Signalling for metaverse
SG11 initiated a new work item Q.FITSM “Framework of interoperable telepresence suits for metaverse” and agreed to add the proposed Q.PMV into the
Q8/11 living list.
The complete list of new work items agreed at this particular meeting is available in
SG11-TD15/GEN.
11.7 QKDN protocols
As a continuation of studies related to signalling protocols for QKDN, ITU-T SG11 consented draft Revised Recommendation ITU-T Q.4164 “Protocols for Ck interfaces for quantum key distribution networks”. Also, SG11 made progress on draft Recommendations ITU-T Q.QKDNi_profr, Q.QKDNi_KM, Q.QKDN_Mk, Q.QKDN_Cq, Q.QKDN_GC.
SG11 initiated a new work item related to QKDN monitoring – QSTR.MP_QKDN “Monitoring parameters for quantum key distribution network”.
