REGULATION TOWARDS NGN

KONFERENSI INTERNATIONAL – Towards The All IP NetworkSTT – TEL, Bandung, 30 Oktober 2007

What is NGN ?

Characteristic of NGN - ITU

The NGN is characterized by the following fundamentalaspects: • Packet-based transfer  • Separation of control functions among bearer

capabilities, call/session, and application/service • Decoupling of service provision from transport, and

provision of open interfaces • Support for a wide range of services, applications and

mechanisms based on service building blocks (including real time/streaming/non-real time services and multi-media)

• Broadband capabilities with end-to-end QoS and transparency

• Interworking with legacy networks via open interfaces • Generalised mobility

Characteristic of NGN - ITU

• A variety of identification schemes which can be resolved to IP addresses for the purposes of routing in IP networks 

• Unified service characteristics for the same service as perceived by the user

• Converged services between Fixed and Mobile networks

• Independence of service-related functions from underlying transport technologies

• Support of multiple last mile technologies • Compliant with all Regulatory requirements, for example

concerning emergency communications and security/privacy, etc.

country, to link the 33 Province capitals and 440 district capitals ( Kabupaten)• Establishment of ID-SIRTII, for the network security.

Major Functions of Regulator

Encourage Competition Spectrum assignment Numbering Interconnection Access Quality of Services Cyber – security Dispute Resolution

Expected Regulation More flexible

To cope with the Convergence Convergence in Services – telecommunications, IT , broadcast or triple

play – telephone, internet , TV Convergence fixed and mobile Convergence in Licenses – individual licenses – class licenses – no license

Technology Neutral Securing “ Any to Any Connection” Spectrum fee –BHP – based on bandwith Strict compliance – right – obligation – penalty Support to the national product Consumer Protection Intellectual property Right protection Cyber- Security Lawful Interception Through Public Consultation

Market structure and impact

to licensing

NGN will change the market structure from:

– vertical market, whereby different network for different services, and by different licensing, to

– horizontal market, whereby any services could be provided by the same network and could be using the same terminal

Applications (email, TV, web, voice, …)

Unified Service Licensing

In NGN environment , the regulation onLicensing should be make simpler and fastersuch as :

- promote innovation, with more varieties of features;

- more efficient use of resources;- resulting lower tariff;- and yet has to maintain level playing field, to have a healthy competition.

Unified Access Licensing

• In this transition period, the government will introduced unified access licensing whereby for spectrum that is issued for access, it could be used for fixed wireless access, fixed wireless access with limited mobilty or full mobile.

• Reason : fair, eficient used of spectrum, speed up penetration and drive the mobile tariff down.

ROAD TO UNIFIED ACCESS LICENSING

How to encourage innovation, speed up

the teledensity and penetration and yet

maintain level playing field– Issue of Spectrum Pricing– Issue of Interconnect– Issue of numbering

The Objective of Spectrum Re- Arrangement

• To optimize the use of the spectrum frequency to the optimum benefit

• Giving guidance for the use and allocation of frequency for various sevices.

• to accelerate the growth of national telecommunication and IT industry.

• The Master Plan will be publicly available,

Interconnection

• Cost- based Interconnection was implemented since 1 Januari 2007, following the Ministerial Regulation no 8 year 2006.

• Dominant Operators have submitted their “Reference Interconnection Offer” to BRTI. The approved RIO has already been published in their website.The interconnection tariff was calculated based on LRIC Bottom Up default.The scheme has not perfect yet, but the regulation has started the transparancy, open and non discriminative ..

• Review on calculating the interconnect tarif has been carried out. The calculation is based on data 2005 and based on LRIC Bottom Up best practice Indonesia, which will be closer to reality..

• In the IP-based network, the calculation approached will be different again. It will be more depending on the volume of traffic committed, and could be back to B – B arrangement and not element cost.

• However, it is predicted that cost-based interconnection is still valid for some years to come.

Numbering, Naming and Addressing

• NGN requires reviewing on the numbering, name and addressing the access network

• At present telecom numbering using E 164, rules by ITU and coordinated by national regulator, while the internet is using IP address which is coordinated by ICANN ( Internet Corporation for assigned Names and Numbers) which is outside the national regulator. IETF has introduced ENUM as an integrated numbering scheme.

• However there is no consensus yet on what numbers within national numbering plan should be used for NGN services, especially for VoIP. This requires extensive consultation between all the stakeholders. Another important is the privacy concern with related to the operation of ENUM database.

• Therefore, Regulator urge that all telcos and ISP operator to be actively involve in the test bed ENUM that is currently conducted, to identify problem faced in implementing the ENUM

Review National Numbering Plan

The Objective of reviewing National Numbering are asfollows :

• Increase efisiensi in allocating the number, to accommodate the increase number of player and anticipate for next generation network.

• Harmonisation of fixed local numbering, fixed wireless access and cellular mobile numbering to pepare for the unified access licensing.

• Guidance for implementation of number portability.• Guidance for implementation of ENUMIt has to be certain that any change in numbering is asnecessary only, and not too much burden for the subscribers.

Consumer Protection & QoS

• A draft of ministerial Regulation on Minimum Standard of QoS for :– PSTN– Cellular Mobile,– BWA– Internet

Has been put in the website for public consultation

• Study on Number Portability

Trial on IPv6

• IP address is from APNIC, Asia Pacific , may be exhausted due to heavy demand of China ad India,

• Not only base on shortage but base on the long term vision of technology renewal, and benefit that can be reached

• The Government has to have strategy on deployment of IPv6.

• No country has mandated IPv6. However to face long term strategy the government has to take lead by making the trial together with ISP and Telco operator, and apply IPv6 to all government network, to encourage IPv6 transition.

Security

• NGN needs security mechanism to protect from service denial, and virus attack, and to protect customer’s information from malicious hacking;

• As the NGN is all IP-based network, the issue of Security become very important;

• Government issued Permen No 26/PER/M.KOMINFO/5/2007 regarding “Pengamanan Pemanfaatan Jaringan Telekomunikasi Berbasis Protokol Internet”, and the formation of ID-SIRTII.

Managing Essential Resources

• According to PP No.38 year 2007 re. “ pembagian kewenangan Pemerintah Pusat dan Daerah”, stated as follows:– All the authorization regarding spectrum and radio frequency are

within the Cental Government (c.q. DG Postel)– The authorization to access essential ICT infrastucture such as

telecommunication Tower and Road Digging is done by Pemerintah Daerah (Kota/Kabupaten)- ( the Regional Government)

• Pemerintah Pusat (Depkominfo, c.q. Ditjen Postel) has to give standard and gudance to Pemerintah Daerah in 2 years time.

• It is approved that sharing use of Tower, Duct are promoted

THE NEED OF ROAD MAP

• Require a roadmap as a guidance for Regulator and Industry as well as for the bases for the reviewing the ICT Law,

• BRTI together with the stakeholders are preparing ICT Infrastucture Road Map, to support the Vision of the Depkominfo :”Terwujudnya penyelenggaraan komunikasi dan informatika yang efektif dan efisien menuju masyarakat informasi yang sejahtera dalam kerangka Negara Kesatuan Republik Indonesia”
