APIs for Emergency Telecom Services (ETS)
 The goal is to enable advanced and flexible ETS by allowing
services to be developed using open, standard APIs rather than
monolithic, stovepiped applications
 Since the Parlay API is applicable to IP, wireless and PSTN any
hooks introduced into the API apply to all networks
 The Parlay API actually consists of a set of APIs for call control,
mobility, user interaction, etc
 Our first contribution is to put a hook into the call control API so
that NGN calls or sessions can get High Probability of
Completion
– This extends the current capabilities possible in the PSTN to IP as
well as wireless networks

ETSI EMTEL ETS – 6
Objective
 Identify requirements and introduce contributions for Parlay
APIs that enable equipment manufacturers, network operators,
and service providers to develop and offer a wide range of
priority services to authorized users that aid in a high probability
of completion for emergency traffic during a crisis situation when
networks may be restricted due to damage, congestion or faults

ETSI EMTEL ETS – 7
ETS Overview
 ETS enables effective communication for emergency operations
during times of severe network congestion due to man-made or
natural disasters
– Basic service includes priority access, user authentication, and
enhanced routing, exemption from Network Management Controls
– Several countries already offer some emergency
telecommunications services:
 Canada: Line Load Control to deliver priority dialtone
 USA: GETS
 Japan: “I Am Alive” via web site registration

ETS Overview (continued)
 Need to extend A/IN, 3G based and switch-based priority
services defined for ETS calls to Next Generation networks and
open APIs such as Parlay
 Background white papers etc: http://www.iepscheme.net
– Vernon Mosley’s presentation to the Parlay group at San Diego,
5/23/01
 See http://www.parlay.org
– See also IETF Drafts and Recommendations E106, F706
 3 Parlay ETS proposal presentations have been made at San
Diego and in Munich
 Simple example in Parlay: Enhancing Calling_Party_Category
parameter for call control by new value

Parlay/3GPP OSA/ETSI SPAN 12
Architecture
 The APIs encapsulate underlying protocols such as SIP or ISUP
 Applications are agnostic of underlying technology and thus highly portable
or/and can serve multiple networks (both IP, Mobile, and PSTN)
 There are Call Control APIs, Mobility, Presence, Policy, User Interaction, …

Essential network features for the
successful operation of IEPS
Inspired by ITU-T Recommendation E.106
 priority call origination
 priority call setup, including priority queuing schemes
 exemption from restrictive management controls, such as call
gapping
Inspired by ITU-T Draft F.706
 extension of other APIs such as Multimedia Call Control,
Presence and Availability, Mobility (Location)

Standardization
 Mid December, the Parlay Group approved the charter for the
Parlay ETS Working Group
 During the last Parlay meeting, February 5-7 in Hong Kong,
the Parlay ETS Working Group held its first face-to-face
 A contribution was submitted to Joint Working Group such that
its APIs would support call marking
– The contribution was accepted
– Further contributions ETS enabling the Parlay APIs are in the
works!
 3GPP SA1 does not have an ETS requirement yet (a study
group is working in this)
 An IETF working group is proposed, a third BoF discussing its
charter is on the agenda for IETF #53
