The present document specifies the YANG models for representing Network Functions Virtualisation (NFV) descriptors, fulfilling the requirements specified in ETSI GS NFV-IFA 011 and ETSI GS NFV-IFA 014 applicable to a Virtualised Network Function Descriptor (VNFD), a Physical Network Functions Descriptor (PNFD) and a Network Service Descriptor (NSD).
The EMTEL Special Committee is responsible for the capture of European requirements concerning emergency communication services, covering typically the four scenarios in case of an emergency e.g. communication of citizens with authorities, from authorities to citizens, between authorities and amongst citizens. In addition, EMTEL deals with topics like location (e.g. Advanced Mobile Location), NG112, communications involving IoT devices in emergency situations and alerting.
The document aims at providing recommendations for the introduction of autonomics (management and control intelligence) in the 3GPP Core and Backhaul network architectures. To this effect, it covers the instantiation of the reference model for Autonomic Networking, Cognition and Self-Management, called GANA (Generic Autonomic Networking Architecture), onto the architecture defined in ETSI TS 123 401 and ETSI TS 123 402. It superimposes GANA Decision Elements (DEs) into node/device architectures and the overall 3GPP network architecture, so that the DEs and their associated Control-Loops can be further designed to perform autonomic management and control of the specific resources (Managed Entities) in the target architecture. It develops recommendations on the basic behaviours of the GANA Functional Blocks (FBs) in the above context. 3GPP specifications on policy control (ETSI TS 123 203) and network management (TS 123 32x series) are taken into account into the working reference architecture. It also involves the backhaul network and associated interactions between the different entities for an optimization with an end-to-end perspective.
The present document specifies functional requirements for both the Virtualised Infrastructure Manager (VIM) and the NFV Infrastructure (NFVI), for NFV acceleration from an infrastructure management perspective. This includes the controlling and management of acceleration resources, e.g. allocation, release and discovery of acceleration resources. The present document also identifies the corresponding impacts on VIM related specifications regarding functional requirements ETSI GS NFV-IFA 010 and reference points (ETSI GS NFV-IFA 005 and ETSI GS NFV-IFA 006).
The present document specifies the interfaces supported over the Or-Vnfm reference point of the Network Functions Virtualisation Management and Orchestration (NFV-MANO) architectural framework ETSI GS NFV-MAN 001 as well as the information elements exchanged over those interfaces.
The present document provides specifications of infrastructure related ITS services to support communication between infrastructure ITS equipment and traffic participants using ITS equipment (e.g. vehicles, pedestrians). It defines services in the Facilities layer for communication between the infrastructure and traffic participants. The specifications cover the protocol handling for infrastructure-related messages as well as requirements to lower layer protocols and to the security entity.
The present document is part of a series of specifications that defines the fourth generation of high-speed data-over-cable systems, commonly referred to as the DOCSIS 3.1 specifications. The present document was developed for the benefit of the cable industry, and includes contributions by operators and vendors from North and South America, Europe and Asia.
The present document provides a framework for concurrent tests of multiple services, using a top-level approach which is also modular and scalable with respect to new services. Also, the framework explicitly integrates measurement methodology, in particular reproducibility aspects.
The present document's scope is to provide guidance on OTT video streaming testing approach with a set of minimum desired and most meaningful QoE centric QoS parameters along with recommendations to create a figure of merit quantifying the OTT video streaming session quality, where possible. In addition, the set of introduced QoE centric QoS parameters aim to help with the identification of the possible roots of video quality degradation. The present document also offers means to understand aspects related with network and services optimization and troubleshooting, such as the trade-off between bandwidth usage or controlled throttling and end-to-end video quality.
The present document describes the Single Illumination System, which allows to deliver Parent Signals for direct reception by consumer receivers and, at the same time, for a deterministic generation of daughter streams for terrestrial retransmission. Parent Signals can be provided to the daughter site via all defined TS-based DVB means - be it satellite, cable or terrestrial. Metadata may be provided as part of the Parent Signal(s) (called "in-band" in the present document). Part of the metadata may also be provided "out-of-band".
The present document specifies the structure and format of a VNF package file and its constituents, fulfilling the requirements specified in ETSI GS NFV-IFA 011 [1] for a VNF package.
