Summary :

In July 2006, International Telecommunication Union-Telecommunication Standardization Sector (ITU-T) Study Group 13 initiated the approval process for a batch of framework Recommendations on the Next Generation Network (NGN) Release 1. One of the new Recommendations, Y.2012, illustrates the NGN from the viewpoint of a functional architecture consisting of various functional blocks, namely functional entities. In conjunction with this Recommendation, this paper explains how the NGN can be built and how the NGN utilizes functional entities to provide expected services and required capabilities. This paper also identifies open issues for extending the functional architecture towards Release 2.
