Abstract:
The purpose of this document is to analyze the issues that have
arisen so far and then to propose a set of requirements for the Fixed
Mobile Convergence. The term Fixed Mobile Convergence spans several
scenarios from true integration of fixed and mobile terminals,
services, and network infrastructure on both technical and management
level down to pure interworking between fixed and mobile networks in
serving access for multi-interface terminals like todays'
smartphones. In the interworking scenario, the mobile network passes
on the mobile subscribers policies to the fixed broadband network in
order to maintain the end-to-end service level agreement and to
support remote terminal and access network management. Explicitly,
the fixed broadband network must have partnership with the mobile
network in Fixed Mobile Convergence interworking scenario. This
document gives a brief overview of the assumed Fixed Mobile
Convergence architecture and related works and then introduces
several requirements based on the partnership in Fixed Mobile
Convergence architecture, such as User Equipment identification and
authentication, Femto Access Point management, device type
identification and mobility considerations.
