TIA-1059 describes IP-based over-the-air device management of mobile stations compliant with cdma2000B. standards.
As the functionality of mobile devices grows at an increasing rate, configuring and maintaining the services and features on the devices becomes a complex and time consuming task. For instance, enabling Wireless Application Protocol (WAP), Code Division Multiple Access (CDMA), and data connectivity requires configuration of multiple settings. Operators should ensure that phone configuration is quick and easy for customers.
Another use case is over-the-air (OTA) provisioning and management of new services to mobile devices. Advanced mobile services, such as browsing, multimedia messaging, mobile e-mail, and calendar synchronization, require accurate mobile phone settings.
Device Management (DM), the process of remotely managing device settings and applications, will help the widespread adoption of mobile services, as it provides a mechanism for the users to easily subscribe to new services, according to TIA. It enables a fast and easy way to introduce new services and manage provisioned services, by dynamically adjusting to changes and ensuring a certain level of quality of service.
