This Recommendation identifies the IMT-2000 family member; "ANSI-41 evolved core network with cdma2000 access network". This set of referenced specifications includes those 3GPP2 specifications that were approved as of 11 July 2002.

The core network interfaces identified in this Recommendation, and the radio interfaces and radio access network interfaces identified in ITU-R Rec. M.1457-1 [1], constitute a complete system specification for the 3rd generation mobile system for terrestrial usage of this IMT-2000 family member.

It is the intent of the ITU-T that the references in this Recommendation are only to specifications that specify the network aspects of this IMT-2000 family member. In the event that a referenced specification also includes material that specifies any of the radio aspects of this IMT-2000 family member, Rec. ITU-R M.1457-1 [1], shall take precedence.
