Editor's Notes
- #4 its most important protocols, the Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) and the Internet Protocol (IP),
- #5 One network transports all type of data and provide services (voice, data, all sorts of media) by encapsulating these into packets using TCP/IP. NGNs are commonly built around the Internet Protocol (IP), and therefore the term all IP is also sometimes used to describe the transformation toward NGN.
- #6 The realization of the idea for NGN has started in 2003 (Figure 3.3). In each standards body has been organized a standard group dedicated to NGN. The ITU-T has started its work on NGN in 2003 by creating the so-called Joint Rapporteur Group on Next Generation Network (JRG-NGN), which targeted to study several main subjects such as: NGN requirements, the general reference model, NGN functional requirements and functional architecture, and evolution to NGN (from existing telecommunication networks at that time). This group delivered two fundamental NGN recommendations: • General overview of NGN (Y.2001 [2]); • General principles and general reference model for NGN (Y.2011 [3]). The JRG-NGNwas formed from experts of ITU-T Study Group 13 (SG13), which is targeted to future networks, including cloud computing, mobile, and NGN. In 2004 the ITU-T Focus Group on Next Generation Network (FG-NGN) was established, which lasted for 1.5 years (until November 2005). Its main targetwas to accelerate the activities started by the JRG-NGN. In the period 2004–2005 several key aspects regarding the NGN were addressed by this group, such as: functional architecture and mobility, QoS, control and signaling aspects, service and security capabilities, the migration path from PSTN/ISDN networks to NGN, as well as future packet-based networks and their requirements. The work of FG-NGN was published in proceedings in 2005 [3]. From 2006 the work on NGN standardization within the ITU-T was transferred to the Next Generation Network Global Standards Initiative (NGN-GSI), which is working on detailed standards for NGN deployment by collaboration with different ITU-T Study Groups. The established objectives and goals of NGN-GSI were to further strengthen the leading role of ITU-T among other standardization bodies involved with NGN, to coordinate work between different ITU-T Study Groups working on various NGN recommendations, and to produce global standards based on the telecommunications market needs (which are continuously changing and often cannot be precisely predicted). Since the start of the NGN standardization process in ITU many operators have started to migrate to all-IP networks, including the telephony migration to VoIP with similar QoS, security, and signaling support as in PSTN. The PSTN transition to all-IP environment was the most important driver for NGN from the start, thus NGN release 1 was mainly focused to VoIP. However, since the realization of NGN is an evolutionary process and different operators and administrations will start it at different times, there is a need to have different approaches for building a NGN or transition from PSTN and PLMN (which both have high investments, either is equipment or other resources such as frequency bands for mobile networks) toward the NGN.
- #7 NGN Definition: ETSI : NGN is a concept of the defining and establishing of the networks, allowing a formal distribution of functionalities into separate layers and planes by using open interfaces, making it possible for the service providers and operators to create a platform which can be gradually developed thanks to creation, implementation and effective management of innovative services.
- #8 NGN is a packet-based network able to provide Telecommunication Services to users and able to make use of multiple broadband, QoS-enabled transport technologies and in which service-related functions are independent of the underlying transport-related technologies. It enables unfettered access for users to networks and to competing service providers and services of their choice. It supports generalized mobility which will allow consistent and ubiquitous provision of services to users.

- #12 The access layer provides the infrastructure, for example an access network between the end user and the transport network. The access network can be both wireless and fixed and it can be based on various transport media. The transport layer ensures the transport between the individual nodes (points) of the network, to which are connected access networks. It connects physical elements deployed in the individual layers It also enables the transport of different types of traffic, media (signaling, interactive data, real-time video, voice communication, etc.) The control layer includes the control of services and network elements. This layer is responsible for set-up/establishing, control and cancelling of the multimedia session. It ensures the control of sources as well, depending on the service requirements. One of the fundamental NGN principles is the separation of control logic from the switching hardware. The service layer, which can be used to create more complex and sophisticatoffers the basic service functionsed services and applications. It controls the progress of the service based on its logic.
- #14 As it has already been stated, the next generation networks are a vision of a converged network, meeting all the requirements for a converged universal packet network of the future. That is why it is appropriate to look into their evolution and to outline their future trends and the open issues to be solved as well.

- #17 Integrated Services for Digital Network (ISDN) is a set of communication standards for simultaneous digital transmission of voice, video, data, and other network services over the traditional circuits of the public switched telephone network. Terrestrial television is a type of television broadcasting using radio signals for transmission and television antennas and tuners for reception
- #19 NGN architecture based on software switching technology (softswitch) can be supposed as first and unique evolution step in NGN, although there are more modern architecture available nowadays (for example see chapter IMS based architecture). However, it has built up philosophy of building of new NGN networks and validated principles and features of NGN architecture and its components towards its next evolution This architecture was the first which drive was significantly motivated by telecommunication vendors, naturally reflecting on massive development of VoIP protocol family and by telecommunication providers demand to implement services more modern and more efficient way. Multiprotocol Label Switching (MPLS) is a mechanism in high-performance telecommunications networks that directs data from one network node to the next based on short path labels rather than long network addresses
- #21 A registered jack (RJ) is a standardized[1][2][3] physical network interface—both jack construction and wiring pattern—for connecting telecommunications or data equipment to a service provided by a local exchange carrier or long distance carrier. The standard designs for these connectors and their wiring are named RJ11, RJ14, RJ21,RJ35, RJ45, RJ48, etc. PBX is a system that connects telephone extensions of a company to outside public telephone network as well as to mobile networks.
- #24 Customer network: This is a network deployed at home or at enterprise, which is connected via the UNI with NGN access network. • Access network: This network collects the end-user traffic from customer network to the core network in both directions. It also aggregates the traffic from different end-users to the core network. Also, it can be divided into several domains, and in such case network elements within a single domain are interconnected with so-called INNI (Internal Network– Network Interface). Connections between network elements from different domains as well as between access networks and core networks are realized via the NNI. • Core network: This type of network provides transport of user data as well as control and management information between different network elements (e.g., between core routers). A core network may have several domains. Within a single domain network elements are interconnected via INNI, while NNI is used between different core network domains or between a core network and other network (e.g., access network, transit network).
