scope:

The present document provides a summary of each Feature or, whenever needed, of each significant Work Item, introduced in Release 14.

The information provided in the present document is limited to an overview of each feature, explaining, in about a page, its purpose and the main lines of its behaviour.

The next step to retrieve more information on a given feature is to consult the 3GPP Ultimate web site, as explained in Clause 4.

This document presents the "initial state" of the Features introduced in Release 14, i.e. as they are by the time of publication of this document. It is however important to note that each Feature is subject to be later modified or enhanced, over several years, by the means of Change Requests (CRs) associated to the Feature or to "TEI" (Technical Enhancements and Improvements). It is therefore recommended to retrieve all the CRs which relate to the given Feature, as explained in Clause 4, to further outline a feature at a given time.
