Today telecommunications has become \"the utility\" of human society and thus is the life-line for not only citizens of India but also for the economy. Therefore there has been serious consideration for security and privacy in and of Indian telecommunication systems and networks. Therefore it was found essential to create a security and privacy working group (S&P WG) in GISFI that would develop solutions for ICT security issues in India as well as provide security solutions for activities in other WG. This paper presents details of the scope, current work accomplishments and future strategy and plans of the S&P WG [1].","PeriodicalId":394466,"journal":{"name":"J.

Six company cases show that companies had different reasons for wanting to implement these standards, but that they achieved most of their objectives. Benefits include improved service quality, higher customer satisfaction, and in some cases, new business opportunities. A number of common success factors ensure the objectives can be achieved, and financial and non-financial benefits can indeed be obtained. The lessons learnt from these cases can help other companies to also reap such benefits.","PeriodicalId":394466,"journal":{"name":"J.

Formerly call identity spoofing of the displayed number in circuit switched (CS) networks was too difficult to perform so that people could be sure that when receiving a call on their mobile phone or at home, the displayed number is the one as it is supposed to be. Nowadays this is not the case anymore, voice communication from the internet with VoIP is cheap and spam calls can be easily realized without any costs, also it is getting easier to perform spoofed calls with wrong display name or number. \u0000The mobile network operators have no mechanisms to tackle those threats, but standardization activities are already in place within the security group SA3 of 3GPP. This paper provides an overview of the current status of the standards activities and shows the most promising solutions that are proposed up to now. The proposed solutions detect unsolicited communications and spoofed calls by tracing back to the displayed number used in the attack.","PeriodicalId":394466,"journal":{"name":"J.

In this article, the objectives and frameworks of this global standardization education program will be evaluated, especially on the existing Osaka Univ. program and MJIIT program. The general issues on standardization education and the results of case studies on the current trends of global standardization are discussed. The contents of Osaka Model, which MJIIT is now adopting, are slightly different from the conventional educations regarding the introduction of standards, which was architected for the general local schools and companies. It is expected that the article will give a valuable example for understanding on the future direction of standardization educations and advance further its activities in academic and/or university on the issue.And by promoting this education, we hope the conceptual paradigm regarding standardization will be shifted from the just simple international standardization, as reflecting international expansion of the intellectual property right (IPR) based national standard, to global standardization, as commonly acceptable one beyond IPR.And it focuses more enhancing the innovativeness, entrepreneurial and global standardization activities as well.","PeriodicalId":394466,"journal":{"name":"J.

Thanks to the favorable propagation characteristics of the low frequency spectra, 802.11ah can provide much improved transmission range compared with the conventional 802.11 WLANs operating at 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz bands. 802.11ah can be used for various purposes including large scale sensor networks, extended range hotspot, and outdoor Wi-Fi for cellular traffic offloading, whereas the available bandwidth is relatively narrow. In this paper, we give a technical overview of 802.11ah Physical (PHY) layer and Medium Access Control (MAC) layer. For the 802.11ah PHY, which is designed based on the down-clocked operation of IEEE 802.11ac’s PHY layer, we describe its channelization and transmission modes. Besides, 802.11ah MAC layer has adopted some enhancements to fulfill the expected system requirements.These enhancements include the improvement of power saving features, support of large number of stations, efficient medium access mechanisms and throughput enhancements by greater compactness of various frame formats. Through the numerical analysis, we evaluate the transmission range for indoor and outdoor environments and the theoretical throughput with newly defined channel access mechanisms.","PeriodicalId":394466,"journal":{"name":"J.
