 INTRODUCTION

• Today, telephony , the internet , and the cellular mobile

networks continue to be different domains, each has its own
protocols and services.
• NGN will be the foundation for the creation of a new range
of multimedia applications that takes full advantage of the
characteristics of the broadband network and the “always on”
capability.

2
 GENERAL IDEA

• The general idea behind the NGN is that one network

transports all types of data and provide services(voice , data ,
and all sorts of media such as video) by encapsulating these
into packets , similar to those used on the internet.
• NGN are commonly built around the Internet Protocol(IP) ,
and therefore the term all IP is also sometimes used to
describe the transformation towards NGN.

 NGN ITU-T’S DEFINITION

• A next-generation network (NGN) is a packet-

based network which can provide services including
Telecommunication Services and is able to make use of
multiple broadband, quality of Service -enabled transport
technologies and in which service-related functions are
independent from underlying transport-related technologies.
• It offers unrestricted access by users to different service providers.
• It supports generalized mobility which will allow consistent and
ubiquitous provision of services to users.

 CONVERGENCE TOWARDS
THE NGN
Today’s network is divided into:
• The Public Switched Telephone Network,
• The Packet Switched Networks (e.g. the Internet) and
• The Mobile networks
• Convergence is the process of interconnection of traditional
switched circuit networks (the PSTN and mobile networks)
and packet –switched networks based on the Internet Protocol
(IP) for routing.

 NGN LAYER ARCHITECTURE

• A basic architecture was defined comprising Network

Elements needed for the provision of traditional Telephony
services.
• Each element has distinct roles within the network and is
designed to integrate horizontally with other elements in the
same layer , as well as vertically with the function – based
elements of the other layers.
• The Next Generation Networks architecture is based on four
layers: Access layer , Core layer , Control layer and Service
layer.

 NGN LAYERS

• Access layer elements include different Media Gateways that

support connection to and from the access network with the
core network.
• Core layer is the network handling converged services based
on IP.
• Control layer is the call server that provides call control
functions and also provides the control of the Media Gateway.
• Service layer is an IT platform that plays the role of an IN-
SCE (Intelligent Network Service Creation Environment)
extending their functionality in order to cover the new
network scenarios. 11

 NGN ELEMENTS

• Access gateway
- Allows the connection of subscriber to the packet network.
- Convert the traffic flow of analogue signal to packet
network.
• Trunking Gateway
- Allows interworking between TDM
- Telephony network to packet- based network.

14
 NGN ELEMENTS(cont…)

• Softswitch
- Referred to as Call Agent or media Gateway Controller(MGC)
• Provides the service delivery control within the network via
• H.248 protocol, SIP protocol
- Performs signalling gateway functionality for interworking with
• PSTN N7 signalling network.
- Provides connection to Intelligent Network or Applications
• Server(AS) to offer another services

15
 NGN ELEMENTS(cont…)

• Applications Server (AS)

- Support service execution, e.g. to control call server and NGN
special resources (e.g. media server , message server ) via
these protocols: H.248,SIP,SS7,ENUM,MPLS,BGP etc.

16
 NGN & PROTOCOLS

NGN requires new protocols to support converged networks.

Requirements
• Support for legacy PSTN interworking , Migration Plan from
legacy to NGN , high availability , Lifeline services and
scalability.
• With so many protocols, which one to choose?
• H.323, SIP(Session Initiation Protocol), MGCP (Media
Gateway Control Protocol), SIGTRAN

17
 NGN SERVICES

Several services that will be important drivers in the NGN

environment are:
• Voice Telephony: Call Waiting, Call forwarding, 3-Way
Calling
• Voice Portal: Provide callers with anywhere, anytime
access to information.
• Data services : Bandwidth –on- demand, connection
reliability.
• Multimedia Services : This allows customers to converse
with each other while displaying visual information. 18
• Virtual Private Networks: Allow large , geographically
dispersed organizations to combine their existing networks
with portions of the PSTN , thus providing subscribers with
uniform dialling capabilities.
• Public Network Computing : Provides public network based
computing services for businesses and consumers.
• Unified Messaging : Supports the delivery of voice mail, email,
fax mail, and pages through common interfaces.
• Home Manager : These services could monitor and control
home security systems, energy systems, home entertainment
systems, and other home appliances.

 CONCLUSIONS

• NGN are not just PSTN replacement but at a minimum they

must provide the equivalent voice quality and reliability of
today’s PSTN
• The NGN will be the foundation for the creation of a new
range of multimedia applications that take full advantage of
the characteristics of the broadband network and the “always
on” capability.
• The creation of the NGN is no overnight transformation, it is
the shift from separate application- specific networks to a
single network capable of carrying any and all services.
