"The present document describes a long term@ high level roadmap@ intended to guide the future work of 3GPP. It is focussed on items pertinent to the evolution of 3GPP specifications@ and identifies concepts and trends to be considered by 3GPP when defining future work items. It does not contain details of proposed technologies@ rather it contains pointers to direct the activities of the appropriate TSGs in elaborating future releases of the 3GPP standard. As a result@ not all of the topics covered herein are within the remit of 3GPP to discuss@ and description of such items will not be extensively developed. E.g. Spectrum is an ITU-R/WRC issue and therefore outside the scope of 3GPP. The document is designed to be a ""living document"" and will be updated accordingly over its lifetime in order to reflect future developments and innovations."
