IMT-2000 will start its services as early as 2001. Its services are supposed to include broadband, global, and multimedia services. As for the operation and management of IMT-2000, it is important to make the best use of wideband CDMA technology. To do so, the observation of traffic fluctuation and transmission conditions is indispensable. This paper proposes: (1) an integrated architecture for a telecommunication management system; and (2) its application to the IMT-2000 base transceiver station management system. The proposed architecture uses a CORBA-based operations support platform. The unified object model, work coordination facility, and common facilities provide the framework for information sharing and the cooperation between the operation systems. IMT-2000 specific management functions such as the GIS-based layered data management function are also realized using the proposed architecture.
