The 3GPP unites seven telecommunications standard development organizations to help them produce reports and specifications for that define 3GPP technologies.
Learn about the 3rd Generation Partnership Project (3GPP), committed to creating the Mobile Broadband Standard, with emphasis on connecting the IoT
Learn about the best ways to get the specification and how to find the technology areas covered by the 3rd Generation Partnership Project (3GPP).
3GPP specifications cover cellular telecommunications technologies, including radio access, core network and service capabilities, which provide a complete system description for mobile telecommunications. The 3GPP specifications also provide hooks for non-radio access to the core network, and for interworking with non-3GPP networks
All 3GPP specifications have a specification number consisting of 5 digits, in a seriesinspired by the pre-1998 GSM series of specification numbering – with its4 digits. In both cases, the first two digits define the series number.
3GPP defines not only the air interface but also all the protocols and network interfaces that enable the entire mobile system: call and session control, mobility management, service provisioning, etc. Thanks to this approach 3GPP networks can operate in an inter-vendor and inter-operator context. 5G is defined in several phases.
Access the 3GPP portal for comprehensive specifications across various series and releases in mobile communication standards.
Release description The " Release 18 Description; Summary of Rel-18 Work Items " (TR21.918) is now complete - Providing summary notes for the Features within the release. Although the detailed data on each piece of work (Studies, Work item descriptions, Features) is available via the work plan, or via the 3GPP Portal, we hope that the "initial state" (pre-Change Request state) of the Features ...
