The present document summarizes the work done under the WI "Continuous Connectivity for Packet Data Users" defined in [1] by listing technical concepts addressing the objectives of the work item (see below), analysing these technical concepts and selecting the best solution (which might be a combination of technical concepts). “The objective of this work item is to reduce the uplink noise rise from physical control channels of packet data users, e.g. for users which have temporarily no data transmission. This is intended to significantly increase the number of packet data users (i.e. HS-DSCH/E-DCH users without UL DPDCH) in the UMTS FDD system that can stay in CELL_DCH state over a long time period, without degrading cell throughput, and that can restart transmission after a period of inactivity with a much shorter delay (<50ms) than would be necessary for reestablishment of a new connection The objective covers also schemes which could allow improving the achievable UL capacity for VoIP users with its inherent periodic transmission through reducing the overhead of the control channels. Mobility and downlink transmission should not be impacted for these users.” The present document provides the base for the following preparation of change requests to the corresponding RAN specifications.

The objectives of this study are: a) RAN4 to identify whether there are situations in which individual UE receiver performance reduction has no, or minimal impact to the overall UTRAN system level performance or user experience. RAN4 should also identify scenarios in which UE receiver performance reduction cannot safely be performed. b) RAN4 to investigate scenarios for the identified situations where the UE could reduce its performance. The purpose of these scenarios is to ensure that UE performance is not degraded when conditions are not suitable. c) RAN2 to investigate additional signalling which may be beneficial to support Ues in the decision making process for reducing their performance, for example quality thresholds which assist the UE in determining that conditions are suitable to reduce receiver performance.

The present document summarizes the work done under the WI "Continuous Connectivity for Packet Data Users for 1.28Mcps TDD" defined in [1] by listing technical concepts addressing the objectives of the work item (see below), analysing these technical concepts and selecting the best solution (which might be a combination of technical concepts). The objective of this work item is to reduce the code consumption (e.g. overhead of physical control channels or related signaling messages) of packet data users for both real-time (e.g. VoIP) and non real-time services, e.g. for users which have temporarily no data transmission in either uplink or downlink. Packet data users as considered in this work item are using only HS-DSCH/E-DCH channels without UL DPCH and DL DPCH. The aim is to increase the number of packet data users in the UMTS 1.28Mcps TDD system that can be kept efficiently in CELL_DCH state over a longer time period and that can restart transmission after a period of temporary inactivity with a much shorter delay (for example, <100ms) than would be necessary for reestablishment of a new connection. Another aim is to reduce UE power consumption in CELL_DCH state over a long period by DTX and DRX. The present document provides the base for the following preparation of change requests to the corresponding RAN specifications.

This document is a technical report which was requested in the Objective 2 of the RAN4 work item description “FDD Home NodeB RF requirements” [5]. The goal of this technical report is to describe the agreed approach towards the RF related issues raised in [5]: A) The existing UTRA BS classes did not fully address the RF requirements of the HNB application. Proposals for changes to radio performance requirement specifications TS 25.104 are therefore provided in this report, together with the proposals for the test specification TS 25.141. Most of the HNB-specific additions to TS 25.104 / 25.141 were accommodated in a manner similar to the other BS classes. Editors note: - Where square bracketed values are suggested in 3GPP TR 25.820, to conduct further work as required to agree appropriate values. - Where it is suggested that performance values in 3GPP TS 25.104 may be subject to change to conduct further work as required to see if this is necessary. B) The report intends to ensure that operators are provided with sufficient information to fully understand the issues concerning the deployment of HNBs: - Deployment scenarios and their potential bottlenecks. - Guidance on how to control the interference to surrounding macro networks and provide good coverage for the HNB - Testing of the HNB.

ANSI-C code for the floating-point Adaptive Multi-Rate (AMR) speech codec
TS
18.0.0
S4
https://www.3gpp.org/ftp/Specs/archive/26_series/26.104/26104-i00.zip
This Technical Standard (TS) contains an electronic copy of the ANSI-C code for a floating-point implementation of the Adaptive Multi-Rate codec. This floating-point codec specification is mainly targeted to be used in multimedia applications such as the 3G-324M terminal specified in 3GPP TS 26.110, or in packet-based (e.g., H.323) applications. The bit-exact fixed-point ANSI-C code in 3GPP TS 26.073 remains the preferred implementation for all applications, but the floating-point codec may be used instead of the fixed-point codec when the implementation platform is better suited for a floating-point implementation. It has been verified that the fixed-point and floating-point codecs interoperate with each other without any artefacts. The floating-point ANSI‑C code in this specification is the only standard conforming non-bit-exact implementation of the Adaptive Multi Rate speech transcoder (3GPP TS 26.090 [2]), Voice Activity Detection (3GPP TS 26.094 [6]), comfort noise generation (3GPP TS 26.092 [4]), and source controlled rate operation (3GPP TS 26.093 [5]). The floating-point code also contains example solutions for substituting and muting of lost frames (3GPP TS 26.091 [3]). The fixed-point specification in 26.073 shall remain the only allowed implementation for the 3G mandatory speech service and the use of the floating-point codec is strictly limited to other services. The floating-point encoder in this specification is a non-bit-exact implementation of the fixed-point encoder producing quality indistinguishable from that of the fixed-point encoder. The decoder in this specification is functionally a bit‑exact implementation of the fixed-point decoder, but the code has been optimized for speed and the standard fixed-point libraries are not used as such.

The present document specifies requirements and guidelines on video source formats (frame rate, resolution, aspect ratio, colorimetry, bit depth…) and encoding parameters (codec format, random access point period, SEI messages…) for different types of TV services, including linear TV, catch-up TV or on-demand services. A limited set of Operation Points (e.g. SDTV, HDTV, UHD, 8K UHD, …) are defined to provide confidence to content providers/broadcasters on the quality of experience offered by 3GPP services when used for TV-like distribution. Operation Points define format and encoding restrictions but may also be viewed as compatibility points for UEs. In particular, the Operation Points defined in the present document may serve as the primary tested configurations for TV centric video distribution. The Operation Points are defined based on the analysis and findings in the technical report TR 26.949 [2]. In addition, in the context of DASH operations, not only the main distribution formats are defined, but also a subset of spatial and temporal resolutions. In order to minimize testing for seamless switching experience, suitable lower resolutions of distribution formats are defined. Furthermore, to compensate congestion situations, a minimum service quality is defined in order to provide service continuity. The specification is aligned with the Common Media Application Format (CMAF) as defined in ISO/IEC 23000-19 [13] to a large extent. Differences and further restrictions compared to CMAF baseline formats as well as media profiles are highlighted.

The tests are made only for one specific type of text telephone, the Baudot type. The tests are applicable only to a combination of a Baudot codec and CTM and tests the combined performance. A bit-exact implementation of the CTM transmitter as well as an example implementation of the remaining functions of such a combination are provided in [2]. The test scripts and test vectors required to perform this testing are included in a supplement, which is located in the zip archive ctm_testing.zip. The path and file names given in this specification refer to the file structures associated with this supplement. A second supplement (zip archive ctm_score.zip) provides the scoring program that is described in clause 6.

The present document defines a FLUS source entity and a FLUS sink entity that can support point-to-point transmission of speech/audio, video, and text. It defines media handling (e.g., signalling, transport, packet-loss handling, and adaptation). The goal is to ensure a reliable and interoperable service with a predictable media quality while allowing for flexibility in the service offerings. A FLUS source entity, which may be embedded in a single UE, or distributed among a UE and separate audio-visual capture devices, may support all or a subset of the features specified in this document. When used as a generic framework, only the F-C procedures for establishing the FLUS session are required to be supported by the FLUS source and the FLUS sink entities, and no other feature or procedure specified in this document is mandated. Impact on the service quality and network capacity is left to the discretion of the implementation and the service utilizing the framework. For example, configuration of media formats and codecs follows the requirements of the respective service. When offered as part of a 3GPP IMS/MTSI service, the FLUS source and the FLUS sink entities are required to support the IMS control plane and media plane procedures, and the service quality is determined by the MTSI service policy. The specification is written in a forward-compatible way in order to allow additions of media components and functionality in releases beyond Release 15. .

The present document defines the Jitter Buffer Management (JBM) solution for the Immersive Voice and Audio Services (IVAS) codec [2]. Jitter Buffers are required in packet-based communications, such as 3GPP MTSI [7], to smooth the inter-arrival jitter of incoming media packets for uninterrupted playout. The procedure of the present document is recommended for implementation in all network entities and UEs supporting the IVAS codec; procedures described in [4] and used in this document, such as multi-channel time-scale modification, metadata adaptation and rendering are mandatory for implementations in all network entities and UEs supporting the IVAS codec. The present document does not describe the C code of this procedure. For a description of the floating-point C code implementation see [3]. In the case of discrepancy between the Jitter Buffer Management described in the present document and its C code specification contained in [3], the procedure defined by [3] prevails.
