Abstract(in English) This document introduces standardization activities and topics in 3GPP TSG SA WG4 (SA4) which is responsible for standardizing applications and application controls on the 3GPP network. Especially, Enhanced Voice Service (EVS) codec standardization is mainly focused. EVS is a codec for VoLTE speech service that has EPS and IMS as core network and controlling network, respectively. EVS is required to provide significantly improved quality for both speech and mixed content/music compared to existing 3GPP voice codec such as AMR and AMR-WB. In the SA4 meeting held at November 2013, it has been declared that all companies interested in submitting EVS candidates would submit a single jointly-developed EVS candidate. This collaboration work would enable to finalize the standardization of the EVS codec in the Rel-12 time-frame and launch the EVS VoLTE service earlier. At the same time, expanding LTE wide coverage area will be expected in order to provide stable EVS VoLTE service.
