informa(on, entertainment and communica(ons technologies using a pragma(c, flexible and open approach.
• 250+ ATIS Member Companies Represent a Wide Cross Sec(on of the Global Informa(on, Entertainment, and Communica(ons Industry.
– With more than 20 commiGees and over 600 par(cipants, ATIS ac(vely formulates worldwide technical and opera(ons standards for the global ICT Industry
– ATIS has con(nually widened its organiza(onal focus to fully embrace wireless technologies as well as other cuWng edge technologies
• ATIS is the North American Organiza(onal Partner for the 3rd Genera(on Partnership Project (3GPP), a member of and U.S. contributor to the ITU-‐
R/ITU-‐T, and a member of the Inter-‐American Telecommunica(on Commission (CITEL).
• ATIS is accredited by the American Na(onal Standards Ins(tute (ANSI).
ATIS’ Wireless Technologies and Systems CommiKee (WTSC)
ATIS’ WTSC:
• Develops standards for GSM/UMTS/LTE networks and terminals as well as radio access technologies.
• Members include major global wireless companies.
• Ensures interna(onal standards are in alignment with the North American (NA) marketplace, and ensures that NA requirements are met, by coopera(ng closely with and
contribu(ng to leading bodies such as the ITU-‐R, ITU-‐T, and ITU-‐D as well as 3GPP.
• Is instrumental in developing standards to enable mee(ng
U.S. Federal Communica(ons Commission (FCC) mandated
deadlines for the new Commercial Mobile Alerts Systems
(CMAS).

SubcommiKee
Candidate technologies or por+ons of the candidate technologies ATIS WTSC is evalua+ng:
– LTE Release 10 and beyond (LTE-‐Advanced) SRIT from 3GPP OPs – RIT based on IEEE 802.16m
Using all three (3) methods outlined in M.2135-‐1, as appropriate:
– Inspec(on – Analysis – Simula(on
Statement of Intent
In response to the ITU-‐R liaison (Document 5D/TEMP/268-‐E), ATIS Evalua+on Group (EG) Members are:
Performing a quality check, per Report ITU-‐R M.2133, of the templates and the self-‐evalua+on for each candidate technology.
– Iden(fy gaps/deficiencies in submiGed material and/or self-‐evalua(on – Iden(fy areas requiring clarifica(ons
– General ques(ons
Performing a quan+ta+ve assessment, per Reports ITU-‐R M.2133, M.2134 and M.2135-‐1, for each candidate technology.
– Detailed analysis/assessment and evalua(on of the compliance templates submiGed by the proponents per Report ITU-‐R M.2133, Sec(on 4.2.4
– Provide evaluators comments in the templates, along with EG suppor(ng documenta(on for such comments
– Detailed analysis of the proponent’s self-‐evalua(on
Process
Developing ques+ons and feedback to WP 5D and/or the proponents or other EGs.
– Evalua(on Group believes that the Correspondence Group Fora were a great help to the evalua(on process
Process (2)
• Members were assigned specific areas to address, with the intent to compile as many data points as possible.
• Evalua(on Group is reconciling the data points into a single comprehensive report for submission to ITU-‐R WP 5D.
• Held mee(ngs:
– November 3-‐4, 2009 – January 5-‐6, 2010 – January 25-‐29, 2010
– February 8-‐9, 2010 (interim report submiCed, February 10, 2010) – March 30-‐April 1, 2010
– May 4-‐5, 2010
