Abstract

The World Administrative Radio Conference (WARC) of the ITU, in March 1992, identified global bands 1885-2025 and 2110-2200 MHz for Future Public Land Mobile Telecommunication Systems (FPLMTS), including 1980-2010 and 2170-2200 MHz for the mobile satellite component. Extension of integrated voice, video and data telecommunications to a person/machine `anywhere-anytime´, as envisaged by FPLMTS, rather than to a place will have a dramatic effect on the way we live, and on the organizations which currently provide these services. The paper outlines some of the international standards work in this area currently being carried out by CCIR/CCITT, in particular that of CCIR TG8/1 (formerly IWP8/13) on FPLMTS
