The 3GPP unites seven telecommunications standard development organizations to help them produce reports and specifications for that define 3GPP technologies.

Learn about the best ways to get the specification and how to find the technology areas covered by the 3rd Generation Partnership Project (3GPP).

The 3GPP model is one that maximises on its compatibility with legacy 3GPP infrastructure and equipment, delivering the promise of a ubiquitous end-to-end ecosystem that can support a growing number of use cases. There are links to more 'About 3GPP' below.

3GPP specifications cover cellular telecommunications technologies, including radio access, core network and service capabilities, which provide a complete system description for mobile telecommunications.

The 3GPP specifications have a specification number, used to describe the work. Find here links to listings of the specifications & reports in each series.

Aug 8, 2022 · The Fifth Generation of Mobile Telephony, or 5G, or 5GS, is the system defined by 3GPP from Release 15, functionally frozen in June 2018 and fully specified by September 2019.

Get the latest news related to 3GPP specification work, on the timeline for the latest Release, news from our partners and details of 3GPP’s support for trade shows and conferences.

3GPP uses a system of parallel "Releases" which provide developers with a stable platform for the implementation of features at a given point and then allow for the addition of new functionality in subsequent Releases.

The PCG has considered and approved the use of distinct 3GPP markers since the completion of early LTE work in 2008, to help distinguish new release capabilities and the services that they bring.
