Abstract :
In early 1993 TIM1.5 began working on a standard for managing PCS systems. Version 1 of this standard is now in ballot. The standard follows the principles of TMN (Telecommunications Management Network). Version 1 deals primarily with management of wireless access. The standard consists of a generic core with provisions for technology specific extensions so that it can be applied to all PCS technologies. The strengths and weaknesses of the standard and its implications on network providers are discussed. The relationship of this work with the GSM management standards and the evolution of the work is also discussed
