Summary

This Recommendation describes the extensions required for the transport of bearer-related information associated with the Bearer Independent Call Control (BICC) as defined in ITU-T Q.1901. The BICC is used to manage the call control instance that has been separated from the bearer control instance. The BICC needs to transport bearer-related information between call control instances. The Application Transport Mechanism (APM, see ITU-T Q.765) will be used for this purpose. This Recommendation specifies the APM‑user to support the transport of the bearer-related information for the BICC.
