`
`3GPP specifications are published free of charge up to four times a year following the quarterly Technical Specification
`Group (TSG) plenary meetings. At each TSG round, specs can be
`Newly brought under change control (i.e. at least 80% complete)
`Unchanged from their previous versions
`Revised as a result of incorporating approved Change Requests (either in existing Releases or in the latest Release)
`At Releasefreeze time, upgraded to that Release with no technical change

`
`The 3GPP Mobile Competence Centre (MCC) aims to make all Specs available following a TSG round as soon as possible.
`The target dates are shown in the table below. Where very many CRs have to be implemented, or very many specifications
`are to be produced, a further week beyond the above deadlines may be required. These dates are agreed by the TSG
`Chairmen. Over the Christmas and New Year period, when the winter TSG round finishes shortly before the holiday period, an
`extra week or so is normally added to the final deadlines.

`
`The term "3GPP specification" covers all GSM (including GPRS and EDGE), WCDMA (including HSPA) and LTE (including
`LTEAdvanced) specifications. The following terms are also used to describe networks using the 3G specifications: UTRAN,
`UMTS (in Europe) and FOMA (in Japan).
`
`Revised versions of many of these specifications are produced up to four times a year following the quarterly TSG plenary
`meetings.
`
`The table below leads to information about:
`
`Specifications arising from each plenary TSG meeting, including the latest versions of each specification that was not changed at that
`meeting. i.e. each directory holds a complete set of specifications.
`The month of the meeting and the meeting number
`The Status List (ZIPped RTF or Word format) summarizing the current version number for every release of every 3GPP specification
`following each TSG plenary meeting.
`Details of each specification (working group, rapporteur, the Project Manager in MCC (Mobile Competence Centre), the meeting at
`which it was, or is expected to be, "frozen" (i.e. the point after which only corrections are allowed) all are in the Status lists.
`
`Full details of the Specifications, their history and current status can be found in the 3GPP Specifications Status database.
`
`See this link for specs awaited from the most recent Plenary meetings.
