FOREWORD
The CCITT (the International Telegraph and Telephone Consultative
Committee) is a permanent organ of the International Telecommunication Union
(ITU). CCITT is responsible for studying technical, operating and tariff
questions and issuing Recommendations on them with a view to standardizing
telecommunications on a worldwide basis.
The Plenary Assembly of CCITT which meets every four years, establishes
the topics for study and approves Recommendations prepared by its Study Groups.
The approval of Recommendations by the members of CCITT between Plenary
Assemblies is covered by the procedure laid down in CCITT Resolution No. 2
(Melbourne, 1988).
Recommendation D.197 was prepared by Study Group III and was approved
under the Resolution No. 2 procedure on the 15 of July 1991.
