The Alliance for Telecommunications Industry Solutions (ATIS) is a standards organization that develops technical and operational standards and solutions for the ICT industry, headquartered in Washington, D.C. The organization is accredited by the American National Standards Institute (ANSI). [1] It is the North American Organizational Partner for the 3rd Generation Partnership Project (3GPP), [2] a member of and major U.S. contributor to the International Telecommunication Union (ITU), [3] as well as a member of the Inter-American Telecommunication Commission (CITEL). [4]
ATIS has 165 member companies, including various telecommunications service providers, equipment manufacturers, and vendors. [5] The organization encompasses numerous industry committees and fora, which discuss, evaluate, and author guidelines concerning such topics as 5G, [6] illegal robocall mitigation, quantum computing, artificial intelligence-enabled networks, distributed ledger technology, non-terrestrial networks, IoT, cybersecurity, network reliability, technological interoperability, emergency services, [7] billing, [8] the all IP transition, [9] and network functions virtualization. [10]
ATIS is also home to the Next G Alliance (NGA), which is building the foundation for North American leadership in 6G and beyond. [11] The NGA is specifically an initiative to advance North American wireless technology leadership over the next decade through private-sector-led efforts. [12] With a strong emphasis on technology commercialization, the work will encompass the full lifecycle of research and development, manufacturing, standardization and market readiness. [13] [14]
ATIS also has a central role in the information and communication technology industry's work to combat unwanted robocalling. [15] Working under the auspices of ATIS, the Secure Telephone Identity Governance Authority (STI-GA) is a critical body helping the industry achieve success in mitigating this problem. [16]
