Consult the reports of the corresponding TSG meetings for a full description of the treatment of the withdrawal proposals.
Note: date format is MM/DD/YYYY.
Date of proposal | TS/TR (or functionality) to be withdrawn | Justification | TSG meeting at which decision will be taken | Decision |
2/19/2024 | 28.545 from Rel-18 onwards | 3GPP TS 28.111 covers fully the scope of 28.545, and therefore is proposed to withdrawn to avoid duplication and confusion. | TSG SA#103 | Withdrawal approved. |
3/15/2022 | 26.110, 26.111, 26.142, 26.150, 26.177, 26.226, 26.230, 26.231, 26.234, 26.237, 26.243, 26.245, 26.246, 26.412, 26.430, 26.843, 26.850, 26.891, 26.902, 26.903, 26.904, 26.905, 26.906, 26.907, 26.909, 26.910, 26.911, 26.914, 26.919, 26.921, 26.922, 26.923, 26.924, 26.931, 26.937, 26.938, 26.939, 26.943, 26.944, 26.946, 26.947, 26.948, 26.949, 26.950, 26.953, 26.954, 26.957, 26.959, 26.967, 26.973, 26.978, 26.980, 26.981, 26.985, 26.989 from Rel-17 onwards. | S4-220330 | TSG SA#95e | No withdrawal |
3/15/2022 | 28.544 withdrawn. 32.508 and 32.509 from Rel-17 onwards | SP-220333 | TSG SA#95e | Withdrawal approved. |
2/9/2022 | RAN4 25 series specifications (25.101, 25.102, 25.104, 25.105, 25.106, 25.111, 25.113, 25.116, 25.123, 25.133, 25.141, 25.142, 25.143, 25.153, 25.171, 25.172, 25.173, 25.906, 25.914, 25.942, 25.943, 25.951, 25.956, 25.963, 25.967, 25.968) and RAN4 34 series specifications (34.124, 34.926) from Rel-17 onwards | R4-2202305 | TSG RAN#95e | No withdrawal |
8/31/2020 | TR 24.980 from Rel-17 onwards | Justification can be found in C1-205561. | TSG CT#89-e | Withdrawal approved. |
6/4/2020 | Removal of functionality relating to H.263 from TS 26.114 TS 26.140 TS 26.234 TS 26.244 TS 26.346 | Removal of H.263 codec functionality from all Rel-16 specifications under 3GPP SA4 responsibility. Justification can be found in SA4-200852. The Work Item proposing and justifying the withdrawal of this functionality can be found in SP-200400. Draft CRs to update/remove references from other specs can be found in: S4-200853, S4-200854, S4-200855, S4-200856 & S4-200857. | TSG SA#88-e. | Withdrawal approved. |
3/18/2019 | TS 24.323 from Releases 11, 12 and 13 | TSG CT meeting #83 approved in principle the withdrawal of TS 24.323 from Releases 11, 12 and 13. The rationale will be prepared in a special work item currently being drafted by Vodafone. The procedures of TR 21.900 clause 4.9B apply. The withdrawal WID can be found in CP-191151 to CT#84 | TSG CT#84 | Withdrawal approved. |
5/15/2017 | TS 44.118, TS 44.160 from Rel-12 onwards | Specs relate to Iu mode in GERAN, not supported after Rel-11. Note that there are very many references to these specs from other specs, so a very large number of CRs will need to be produced and approved before these specs can be withdrawn. | TSG RAN#77 | Withdrawal approved at RAN#88-e |
3/30/2017 | TR 38.900 | Frequency range of interest has been extended, and this TS is superseded by TR 38.901. A reference check has been undertaken, and necessary CRs will be raised as appropriate. The FS_NR_newRAT WID will be revised to indicate the withdrawal of 38.900. Update 2017-04-26: Subsequent discussions indicate that withdrawal is not required, but that the TR will not be promoted to Rel-15. If any references to 38.900 are required from Rel-15 specs, these will have to be explicitly to the latest Rel-14 version. | TSG RAN#76 | No withdrawal |
