ForewordThis Technical Specification has been produced by the 3GPP.
This 3GPP TS specifies the technical realisation of the handling of calls originated by a 3G mobile subscriber and callsdirected to a 3G mobile subscriber, up to the point where the call is established within the 3GPP system.
The contents of the present document are subject to continuing work within the TSG and may change following formalTSG approval. Should the TSG modify the contents of this 3GPP TS, it will be re-released by the TSG with anidentifying change of release date and an increase in version number as follows:
Version 3.y.z
where:
x the first digit:
1 presented to TSG for information;
2 presented to TSG for approval;
3 Indicates TSG approved document under change control.
y the second digit is incremented for all changes of substance, i.e. technical enhancements, corrections,updates, etc.
z the third digit is incremented when editorial only changes have been incorporated in the specification;

1 ScopeThis 3GPP Technical Specification (TS) specifies the technical realisation of the handling of calls originated by aUMTS or GSM mobile subscriber and calls directed to a UMTS or GSM mobile subscriber, up to the point where thecall is established. Normal release of the call after establishment is also specified.
In this specification, the term MS is used to denote a UMTS or GSM MS, as appropriate.
The handling of DTMF signalling and Off-Air Call set-up (OACSU) are not described in this specification.
The details of the effects of UMTS or GSM supplementary services on the handling of a call are described in therelevant 23.07x, 23.08x and 23.09x series of specifications.
The specification of the handling of a request from the HLR for subscriber information is not part of basic call handling,but is required for both CAMEL (3GPP TS 23.078 [12]) and optimal routeing (3GPP TS 23.079 [13]). The use of theProvide Subscriber Information message flow is shown in 3GPP TS 23.078 [12] and 3GPP TS 23.079 [13].
The specification of the handling of data calls re-routed to a SIWFS is described in 3GPP TS 23.054 [8].
The logical separation of the MSC and VLR (shown in clauses 4, 5 and 7), and the messages transferred between them(described in clause 8) are the basis of a model used to define the externally visible behaviour of the MSC/VLR, whichis a single physical entity. They do not impose any requirement except the definition of the externally visible behaviour.
If there is any conflict between this specification and the corresponding stage 3 specifications (3GPP TS 24.008 [25],3GPP TS 25.413 [26], GSM 08.08 [2] and 3GPP TS 29.002 [28]), the stage 3 specification shall prevail.

4 ArchitectureSubclauses 4.1 and 4.2 show the architecture for handling a basic MO call and a basic MT call. A basic mobile-to-mobile call is treated as the concatenation of an MO call and an MT call.
4.1 Architecture for an MO callA basic mobile originated call involves signalling between the MS and its VMSC via the BSS, between the VMSC andthe VLR and between the VMSC and the destination exchange, as indicated in figure 1.
In figure 1 and throughout this specification, the term BSS is used to denote a GSM BSS or a UTRAN, as appropriate.

Figure 1: Architecture for a basic mobile originated call
In figure 1 and throughout this specification, the term ISUP is used to denote the telephony signalling system usedbetween exchanges. In a given network, any telephony signalling system may be used.
When the user of an MS wishes to originate a call, the MS establishes communication with the network using radiointerface signalling, and sends a message containing the address of the called party. VMSCA requests information tohandle the outgoing call (SIFOC) from VLRA, over an internal interface of the MSC/VLR. If VLRA determines thatthe outgoing call is allowed, it responds with a Complete Call. VMSCA:
ETSI
ETSI TS 123 018 V3.6.0 (2000-09)123GPP TS 23.018 version 3.6.0 Release 1999
- establishes a traffic channel to the MS; and
- constructs an ISUP IAM using the called party address and sends it to the destination exchange.
NOTE: When the non-loop method is used for data calls, the IAM is sent to the SIWFS.
4.2 Architecture for an MT callA basic mobile terminated call involves signalling as indicated in figure 2. Communication between VMSCB and theMS is via the BSS, as for the mobile originated case. If VPLMNB supports GPRS and the Gs interface between VLRBand the SGSN is implemented (see 3GPP TS 23.060 [9]) and there is an association between VLRB and the SGSN forthe MS, the paging signal towards the MS goes from VMSCB via VLRB and the SGSN to the BSS. The IPLMN,containing GMSCB, is in principle distinct from HPLMNB, containing HLRB, but the practice for at least the majorityof current UMTS or GSM networks is that a call to an MS will be routed to a GMSC in HPLMNB.

Figure 2: Architecture for a basic mobile terminated call
When GMSCB receives an ISUP IAM, it requests routeing information from HLRB using the MAP protocol. HLRBrequests a roaming number from VLRB, also using the MAP protocol, and VLRB returns a roaming number in theProvide Roaming Number Ack. HLRB returns the roaming number to GMSCB in the Send Routeing Info ack. GMSCBuses the roaming number to construct an ISUP IAM, which it sends to VMSCB. When VMSCB receives the IAM, itrequests information to handle the incoming call (SIFIC) from VLRB, over an internal interface of the MSC/VLR. IfVLRB determines that the incoming call is allowed, it requests VMSCB to page the MS. VMSCB pages the MS usingradio interface signalling. When the MS responds, VMSCB informs VLRB in the Page ack message. VLRB instructsVMSCB to connect the call in the Complete call, and VMSCB establishes a traffic channel to the MS.

NOTE 1: Authentication may occur at any stage during the establishment of an MO call; its position in thismessage flow diagram is an example.
NOTE 2: Security procedures may be initiated at any stage after authentication; the position in this message flowdiagram is an example.
NOTE 3: If ciphering is not required for a GSM connection, the MSC may send a CM service accept towards theMS; optionally it may instead send a "start ciphering" request indicating that no ciphering is required.This option is not available for a UMTS connection [ffs].
ETSI
ETSI TS 123 018 V3.6.0 (2000-09)153GPP TS 23.018 version 3.6.0 Release 1999
NOTE 4: The network may request the IMEI from the MS, and may check the IMEI, at any stage during theestablishment of an MO call, either as part of the procedure to start security procedures or explicitly aftersecurity procedures have started; this is not shown in this message flow diagram.
When the user wishes to originate a call, MSA establishes a signalling connection with BSSA, and sends a ConnectionManagement (CM) service request to BSSA, which relays it to VMSCA. VMSCA sends a Process Access Request toVLRA. VLRA may then initiate authentication, as described in 3GPP TS 33.102 [31] for UMTS and GSM 03.20 [1] forGSM. VLRA may also initiate security procedures at this stage, as described in 3GPP TS 33.102 [31] for UMTSGSM 03.20 [1] for GSM. If the user originates one or more new MO calls in a multicall configuration, MSA sends aCM service request through the existing signalling connection for each new call.
If VLRA determines that MSA is allowed service, it sends a Process Access Request ack to VMSCA. If VMSCA hasreceived a Start security procedures message from VLRA, the Process Access Request ack message triggers a Startsecurity procedures message towards BSSA; otherwise VMSCA sends a CM Service Accept message towards BSSA.
If BSSA receives a Start security procedures message from VMSCA, it initiates security procedures as described in3GPP TS 33.102 [31] for UMTS and GSM 03.20 [1] for GSM; when security procedures have been successfullyinitiated, MSA interprets this in the same way as a CM Service Accept. If security procedures are not required at thisstage, BSSA relays the CM Service Accept to MSA.
When MSA has received the CM Service Accept, or security procedures have been successfully initiated, MSA sends aSet-up message containing the B subscriber address via BSSA to VMSCA. MSA also uses the Set-up message toindicate the bearer capability required for the call; VMSCA translates this bearer capability into a basic service, anddetermines whether an interworking function is required. VMSCA sends to VLRA a request for information to handlethe outgoing call, using a Send Info For Outgoing Call (SIFOC) message containing the B subscriber address.
If VLRA determines that the call should be connected, it sends a Complete Call message to VMSCA. VMSCA sends aCall Proceeding message via BSSA to MSA, to indicate that the call request has been accepted, and sends an Allocatechannel message to BSSA, to trigger BSSA and MSA to set up a traffic channel over the radio interface. The CallProceeding message includes bearer capability information if any of the negotiable parameters of the bearer capabilityhas to be changed. When the traffic channel assignment process is complete (indicated by the Allocation completemessage from BSSA to VMSCA), VMSCA constructs an ISUP IAM using the B subscriber address, and sends it to thedestination exchange.
When the destination exchange returns an ISUP Address Complete Message (ACM), VMSCA sends an Alertingmessage via BSSA to MSA, to indicate to the calling user that the B subscriber is being alerted.
When the destination exchange returns an ISUP ANswer Message (ANM), VMSCA sends a Connect message viaBSSA to MSA, to instruct MSA to connect the speech path.
The network then waits for the call to be cleared.
For an emergency call, a different CM service type (emergency call) is used, and the mobile may identify itself by anIMEI. It is a network operator option whether to allow an emergency call when the mobile identifies itself by an IMEI.Details of the handling are shown in clause 7.

The information flow for retrieval of routeing information for an MT call is shown in figure 4. ISUP signalling betweenthe originating exchange and GMSCB, and between GMSCB and VMSCB is shown by solid lines; signalling over theMAP interfaces between GMSCB and HLRB and between HLRB and VLRB, and over the B interface between VLRBand VMSCB is shown by chain lines; signalling over the Iu interface (for UMTS) or the A interface (for GSM) betweenVMSCB and BSSB is shown by dashed lines; and signalling over the radio interface between BSSB and MSB is shownby dotted lines.

Figure 4: Information flow for retrieval of routeing information for a basic mobile terminated call
NOTE 1: If pre-paging is used, paging is initiated after VLRB has accepted the PRN message. The pagingprocedure is described in subclause 5.3.
NOTE 2: VMSCB starts the timer for the release of radio resources after it sends the Process Access Requestmessage to VLRB. VMSCB releases the radio resource allocated for the MT call if the timer expiresbefore the IAM is received.
When GMSCB receives an IAM, it analyses the called party address. If GMSCB can derive an HLR address from the Bparty address, it sends a request for routeing information (SRI) to HLRB. If GMSCB supports pre-paging (i.e. it isprepared to wait long enough for the SRI ack to allow pre-paging to be completed), it indicates this by an informationelement in the SRI message.
ETSI
ETSI TS 123 018 V3.6.0 (2000-09)173GPP TS 23.018 version 3.6.0 Release 1999
HLRB decides whether pre-paging is supported according to the following criteria:
- GMSCB has indicated that it supports pre-paging, and
- HLRB supports pre-paging (i.e. it is prepared to wait long enough for the PRN ack to allow pre-paging to becompleted).
HLRB sends a request for a roaming number (PRN) to VLRB; if pre-paging is supported, it indicates this by aninformation element in the PRN message. VLRB returns the roaming number in the PRN ack, and HLRB relays theroaming number to GMSCB in the SRI ack. GMSCB constructs an IAM using the roaming number, and sends it toVMSCB.
5.3 Information flow for an MT callAn example information flow for an MT call is shown in figure 5; many variations are possible. ISUP signallingbetween GMSCB and VMSCB is shown by solid lines; signalling over the B interface between VMSCB and VLRB isshown by chain lines; signalling over the Iu interface (for UMTS) or the A interface (for GSM) between VMSCB andBSSB is shown by dashed lines; and signalling over the radio interface between VMSCB or BSSB and MSB is shownby dotted lines.

NOTE 1: Security procedures may be initiated at any stage after the network has accepted the page response; theposition in this message flow diagram is an example.
NOTE 2: If Security procedures are not required, the MSC may send a Start security procedures message indicatingthat no ciphering is required.
ETSI
ETSI TS 123 018 V3.6.0 (2000-09)193GPP TS 23.018 version 3.6.0 Release 1999
NOTE 3: This message flow diagram assumes that the MS has already been authenticated on location registration.If this is not so (for the first MT call after VLR restoration), the network may initiate authentication afterthe MS responds to paging.
NOTE 4: The network may request the IMEI from the MS, and may check the IMEI, at any stage after the MSresponds to paging, either as part of the procedure to start security procedures or explicitly after securityprocedures have been started; this is not shown in this message flow diagram.
NOTE 5: If a connection between MSCB and MSB has been established as a result of pre-paging, the pagingprocedure is not performed.
NOTE 6: If a connection between MSCB and MSB has been established as a result of pre-paging, VLRB sends theCall arrived message to MSCB to stop the guard timer for the release of the radio connection.
When VMSCB receives an IAM from GMSCB it sends to VLRB a request for information to handle the incoming call,using a Send Info For Incoming Call (SIFIC) message containing the roaming number received in the IAM.
If VLRB recognises the roaming number, and MSB is allowed service, it sends a request to VMSCB to page MSB. If aradio connection between the network and MSB is already established, VMSCB responds immediately to the pagerequest. If no radio connection exists, VMSCB sends a page request to BSSB, and BSSB broadcasts the page on thepaging channel. If VPLMNB supports GPRS and the Gs interface between VLRB and the SGSN is implemented (see3GPP TS 23.060 [9]) and there is a valid association between VLRB and the SGSN for the MS, the paging signaltowards the MS goes from VMSCB via VLRB and the SGSN to the BSS.
If MSB detects the page, it sends a channel request to BSSB, which responds with an immediate assignment command,to instruct MSB to use the specified signalling channel. MSB then sends a page response on the signalling channel;BSSB relays this to VMSCB. VMSCB sends a Process access request message to VLRB to indicate that MSB hasresponded to paging. VLRB may then initiate authentication, as described in 3GPP TS 33.102 [31] for UMTS andGSM 03.20 [1] for GSM. VLRB may also initiate security procedures at this stage, as described in 3GPPTS 33.102 [31] for UMTS and GSM 03.20 [1] for GSM.
If VLRB determines that MSB is allowed service, it sends a Process access request ack to VMSCB. The Process accessrequest ack message triggers a Start security procedures message towards BSSB; if VMSCB has not received a Startsecurity procedures message from VLRB, the Start security procedures message indicates no ciphering.
VLRB then sends a Complete call message to VMSCB. VMSCB sends a Set-up message towards MSB. The Set-upmessage may include bearer capability information for the call.
When MSB receives the Set-up message from BSSB, it responds with a Call confirmed message. The Call Confirmedmessage includes bearer capability information if any of the negotiable parameters of the bearer capability has to bechanged. When VMSCB receives the Call confirmed message via BSSB, it sends an Allocate channel message toBSSB. BSSB instructs MSB to tune to a traffic channel by sending an Assignment command. When MSB has tuned tothe specified traffic channel it responds with an Assignment complete, message, which BSSB relays to VMSCB as anAllocation complete, and sends an Alerting message to indicate that the called user is being alerted. VMSCB sends anACM to GMSCB, which relays it to the originating exchange.
When the called user answers, MSB sends a Connect message, which BSSB relays to VMSCB. VMSCB:
- responds with a Connect ack message towards MSB;
- sends an ANM to GMSCB, which relays it to the originating exchange;
- sends a Complete call ack to VLRB.
The network then waits for the call to be cleared.

6 Principles for interactions with supplementaryservices
This clause specifies the principles used to describe the invocation of the GSM supplementary services which werestandardised when this specification was drafted. Registration, erasure, activation, deactivation and interrogation arecall-independent operations; they are therefore outside the scope of this specification. Descriptions may be found in thestage 2 specifications for each supplementary service.
In the modelling used in this specification, each supplementary service which a network entity supports is managed by asupplementary service handler, which handles data in the entity in which it runs. The call handling processes defined inthis specification use the data to define the contents of messages to other entities. The basic call handling processesdefined in this specification interact with the supplementary service handlers as shown in the SDL diagrams and thesupporting text. If a network entity does not support a supplementary service, it bypasses the interaction with thehandler for that supplementary service. Exceptions to this general principle are described later in this clause.

- The Iu interface, used to interwork between the MSC and the UTRAN or the UMTS MS
- The A interface, used to interwork between the MSC and the GSM BSS or the GSM MS;
- The C, D & F interfaces, used to interwork between the MSC & HLR (C), VLR & HLR (D) and MSC & EIR(F);
- Telephony signalling interfaces, used to interwork between an MSC and another exchange.
The protocols used over the Iu interface are RANAP, which is specified in 3GPP TS 25.413 [26], for interworking withthe UTRAN and DTAP, which is specified in 3GPP TS 24.008 [25], for interworking with the MS.
The protocols used over the A interface are BSSMAP, which is specified in GSM 08.08 [2], for interworking with theBSS and DTAP, which is specified in 3GPP TS 24.008 [25], for interworking with the MS.
The protocol used over the C, D & F interfaces is MAP, which is specified in 3GPP TS 29.002 [28].
For the purposes of this specification, the protocol used over telephony signalling interfaces is ISUP, which is specifiedin ITU-T Q.761 – Q.764 [32, 33, 34, 35]; other telephony signalling systems may be used instead.

This specification shows the call handling application processes interworking with a protocol handler for each of theprotocols listed above. Each protocol defines supervision timers. If a supervision timer expires before a distant entityresponds to a signal, the handling is as defined in the appropriate protocol specification. In general, the protocol handlerreports timer expiry to the application as an error condition or negative response. Where a timer is shown in thisspecification, therefore, it is an application timer rather than a protocol timer. Interworking with the protocol handlersuses functional signal names which do not necessarily have a one-to-one correspondence with the names of messagesused in the protocols.
An MSC which receives an IAM from an originating exchange may react in three different ways:
- It acts as a transit exchange, i.e. it relays the IAM to a destination exchange determined by analysis of the calledparty address, and thereafter relays other telephony signalling between the originating and destination exchangeuntil the connection is released. This behaviour is not specific to UMTS or GSM;
- It acts as a terminating exchange, i.e. it attempts to connect the call to an MS currently registered in the servicearea of the MSC;
- It acts as a GMSC, i.e. it interrogates an HLR for information to route the call. If the HLR returns routeinginformation, the MSC uses the routeing information from the HLR to construct an IAM, which it sends to adestination exchange determined by analysis of the routeing information from the HLR.
Annex A describes the method which the MSC uses to decide how to process the IAM.
The SDL diagrams in this clause show the handling for a number of optional features and services. If the handlingconsists only of a call to a procedure specific to the feature or service, the procedure call is omitted if the entity does notsupport an optional feature or service. If the handling consists of more than a call to a procedure specific to the featureor service, the text associated with each SDL diagram specifies the handling which applies if the entity does not supportan optional feature or service. For simplicity of description, it is assumed that support for Operator Determined Barringand the Call Forwarding and Call Barring supplementary services is mandatory.

7.1.2 Functional requirements of VLR
7.1.2.1 Process OCH_VLR
7.1.2.2 Procedure Process_Access_Request_VLR
Sheet 1: it is a network operator decision (subject to MoU requirements) how often an MS should be authenticated.
Sheet 2: the processes Update_Location_VLR and Subscriber_Present_VLR are described in 3GPP TS 23.012 [6].
Sheet 2: it is a network operator decision (subject to MoU requirements) whether a GSM connection should beciphered. A UMTS connection shall always be ciphered [ffs].
Sheet 3: it is a network operator decision (subject to MoU requirements) how often an IMEI should be checked.
Sheet 3, sheet 4, sheet 5: the procedure CCBS_Report_MS_Activity is specific to CCBS; it is specified in 3GPPTS 23.093 [22].
Sheet 5: it is a network operator decision whether emergency calls are allowed from an ME with no SIM.
7.1.2.3 Procedure OG_Call_Subscription_Check_VLR
Sheet 1: it is an implementation option to carry out the check for operator determined barring of all outgoing callsbefore the check on provisioning of the requested basic service.
Sheet 1: the procedure Check_OG_Multicall_VLR is specific to Multicall; it is specified in 3GPP TS 23.135 [24]. If theVMSC does not support Multicall, processing continues from the “Yes” exit of the test “Result=Pass?”
Sheet 1: the procedure OG_CUG_Check is specific to CUG. If the VLR does not support CUG, processing continuesfrom the "Yes" exit of the test "Result=Call allowed?".
Sheet 1: the procedure Get_LI_Subscription_Info_MO_VLR is specific to CLIR and COLP. If the VLR supportsneither CLIR nor COLP, the procedure call is omitted.
Sheet 1: the procedure Get_AoC_Subscription_Info_VLR is specific to AoC.
Sheet 1: the procedure UUS_OCH_Check_Provision is specific to UUS; it is specified in 3GPP TS 23.087 [20]. If theVMSC does not support UUS, processing continues from the "Yes" exit of the test "Result=Pass?".
Sheet 2: the procedure CAMEL_OCH_VLR is specific to CAMEL; it is specified in 3GPP TS 23.078 [12]. If the VLRdoes not support CAMEL, processing continues from connector 1 to the call to the procedure Check_OG_Barring.
Sheet 2: the negative response "call barred" indicates whether the reason is operator determined barring orsupplementary service barring, according to the result returned by the procedure Check_OG_Barring.
7.1.2.4 Procedure Obtain_Identity_VLR
It is a network operator decision whether open (non ciphered) identification of the MS by its IMSI is allowed.
7.1.2.5 Procedure Obtain_IMSI_VLR
7.1.2.6 Procedure Authenticate_VLR
Sheet 1: the number of unused authentication sets which triggers the VLR to request further authentication sets from theHLR is an operator option.
ETSI
ETSI TS 123 018 V3.6.0 (2000-09)513GPP TS 23.018 version 3.6.0 Release 1999
7.1.2.7 Procedure Obtain_Authentication_Sets_VLR
7.1.2.8 Procedure Start_Tracing_VLR
7.1.2.9 Procedure Check_IMEI _VLR
If the response from the EIR to a request to check an IMEI is:
- blacklisted, then service is not granted;
- greylisted, then service is granted, but the network operator may decide to initiate tracing;
- whitelisted, then service is granted.
7.1.2.10 Procedure Obtain_IMEI _VLR
7.1.2.11 Process Fetch_Authentication_Sets_VLR
7.1.2.12 Procedure Check_BAOC
Sheet 1: if the VLR receives an Abort message from the MSC while it is awaiting a response from the processMAF017, the message is saved for handling after return from the procedure.
7.1.2.13 Procedure OG_CUG_Check
If the VLR receives an Abort message from the MSC while it is awaiting a response from the process MAF014, themessage is saved for handling after return from the procedure.
7.1.2.14 Procedure Get_LI_Subscription_Info_MO_VLR
If the VLR does not support CLIR, it omits the signal interchange with the process CLIR_MAF003.
If the VLR does not support COLP, it omits the signal interchange with the process COLP_MAF005.
If the VLR receives an Abort message from the MSC while it is awaiting a response from the process CLIR_MAF003or the process COLP_MAF005, the message is saved for handling after return from the procedure.
7.1.2.15 Procedure Get_AoC_Subscription_Info_VLR
The indicator of whether or not AoC is provisioned is global data which can be read by the parent process.
7.1.2.16 Procedure Check_OG_Barring
Sheet 3: if the VLR receives an Abort message from the MSC while it is awaiting a response from the process MAF018or MAF019, the message is saved for handling after return from the procedure.

7.2 Retrieval of routeing information for MT call
7.2.1 Functional requirements of GMSC
7.2.1.1 Process MT_GMSC
Sheet 1: the variables ACM sent, Answer sent, Network connect sent, Reconnect and Resume call are global data,accessible to the procedures CCBS_MT_GMSC_Check_CCBS Possible, CCBS_Set_Diagnostic_For_Release,Obtain_Routeing_Address, Send_ACM_If_Required, Send_Answer_If_Required andSend_Network_Connect_If_Required.
Sheet 1: the variable UUS CF interaction is specific to UUS; it is accessible to all UUS specific procedures in theGMSC.
Sheet 1: the procedure MNP_MT_GMSC_Set_MNP_Parameters is specific to Mobile Number Portability; it isspecified in 3GPP TS 23.066 [10].
Sheet 1: the procedure OR_Set_ORA_Parameters is specific to Support of Optimal Routeing; it is specified in 3GPPTS 23.079 [13].
Sheet 1: the procedure CAMEL_Set_ORA_Parameters is specific to CAMEL; it is specified in 3GPP TS 23.078 [12].
Sheet 1: the parameters "Reference address", "OR" and "Own PLMN" are passed to the procedureObtain_Routeing_Address only if the GMSC supports Optimal Routeing. The parameter "Destination address" isreturned by the procedure Obtain_Routeing_Address only if the GMSC supports Optimal Routeing of mobile-to-mobilecalls. The Send Routeing Info negative response information element received in the execution of the procedureObtain_Routeing_Address is global data, available to the parent process.
Sheet 1: the suggested mapping from values of the Send Routeing Info negative response information element to valuesof the ISUP release cause (see ITU-T Recommendation Q.850 [36]) is shown in table 1. The mapping used is a matterfor the network operator, depending on the telephony signalling system used.

NOTE: If the Diagnostic parameter indicates “NPDB mismatch”, MNP can require a specific ISUP release causevalue, according to National Coding Standard, to indicate “Misrouted call to a ported number”, dependingon national regulations. North American GSM Number Portability (NAGNP) requires the SRI negativeresponse “unknown subscriber” to be treated differently under certain conditions. If the IAM receivedfrom the originating exchange contained the HPLMN routing number for NAGNP then the SRI negativeresponse “unknown subscriber” shall be mapped to ISUP release cause number 26 “Misrouted call to aported number”; under all other conditions the SRI negative response “unknown subscriber” shall bemapped to ISUP release cause number 1 “Unallocated (unassigned) number”.
Sheet 1: it is an operator option whether to send an Address Complete message if the Number Portability Databasereturns a routeing number. If the GMSC sends an Address Complete message, it shall include the called party’s statusfield of the Backward call indicator set to "no indication".
Sheet 1: the called party address sent in the IAM to the process MT_CF_MSC is the Forwarded-to number received inthe Perform Call Forwarding ack.

Sheet 2: the procedures CAMEL_Start_TNRy and CAMEL_Stop_TNRy are specific to CAMEL phase 2 or later; theyare specified in 3GPP TS 23.078 [12].
Sheet 2, sheet 3: the procedure CAMEL_MT_GMSC_ANSWER is specific to CAMEL; it is specified in 3GPPTS 23.078 [12]. If the GMSC does not support CAMEL, processing continues from the "Pass" exit of the test "Result".
Sheet 2, sheet 3: the task "Set destination address parameter" is executed only if the GMSC supports Optimal Routeingof mobile-to-mobile calls.
Sheet 3: the procedure Handle_COLP_Forwarding_Interaction is specific to COLP.
Sheet 4: the input signal Resume Call Handling and all the subsequent processing on this sheet are specific to Supportof Optimal Routeing, and will occur only if the GMSC supports Optimal Routeing. The procedure OR_Handle_RCH isspecified in 3GPP TS 23.079 [13].
Sheet 4, sheet 6: the procedure CCBS_MT_GMSC_Check_CCBS_Possible is specific to CCBS; it is specified in 3GPPTS 23.093 [22].
Sheet 5: the input signal TNRy expired and all the subsequent processing are specific to CAMEL phase 2 or later, andwill occur only if the GMSC supports CAMEL phase 2 or later. The procedure CAMEL_MT_GMSC_DISC5 isspecified in 3GPP TS 23.078 [12].
Sheet 6: the procedure CAMEL_MT_GMSC_DISC3 is specific to CAMELphase 1; it is specified in 3GPPTS 23.078 [12].
Sheet 6: the procedures CAMEL_MT_GMSC_DISC4 and CAMEL_MT_GMSC_DISC6 are specific to CAMEL phase2 or later, they are specified in 3GPP TS 23.078 [12].
Sheet 6: the procedure CCBS_Set_Diagnostic_For_Release is specific to CCBS; it is specified in 3GPP TS 23.093 [22].
Sheet 6, sheet 7: the processing in the branch beginning with the Int_Release_Call input will occur only if the MSCsupports CAMEL.
Sheet 7: the procedure CAMEL_MT_GMSC_DISC1 is specific to CAMEL; it is specified in 3GPP TS 23.078 [12]. Ifthe GMSC does not support CAMEL, processing continues from the "No" exit of the test "Result=CAMEL handling?".
Sheet 7: the procedure CAMEL_MT_GMSC_DISC2 is specific to CAMEL; it is specified in 3GPP TS 23.078 [12]. Ifthe GMSC does not support CAMEL, processing continues from the "Normal handling" exit of the test "Result?".
Sheet 7: after the GMSC has sent an IAM to the destination VMSC or the forwarded-to exchange (via the processMT_CF_MSC), it acts as a relay for messages received from the originating exchange and the destination VMSC or theprocess MT_CF_MSC. Any message other than Address Complete, Connect, Answer or Release causes no change ofstate in the process MT_GMSC.

7.2.2.1 Process SRI_HLR
Sheet 1: the procedures Check_Parameters, Subscription_Check_HLR, Handle_OR_HLR_CF and CAMEL_HLR_INITcan set the negative response parameter which is used by the process SRI_HLR to construct the Send Routeing Infonegative response message. This negative response parameter is global data, accessible by the process SRI_HLR.
Sheet 1: the procedure Handle_OR_HLR_CF is specific to Support of Optimal Routeing; it is specified in 3GPPTS 23.079 [13]. If the HLR does not support Optimal Routeing, processing continues from the "No" exit of the test"Result=Forward?".
Sheet 1: the procedure CAMEL_HLR_INIT is specific to CAMEL; it is specified in 3GPP TS 23.078 [12]. If the HLRdoes not support CAMEL, processing continues from the "No" exit of the test"Result=Fail?".
Sheet 2: the procedure First_Forwarding_HLR can set the negative response parameter which is used by the processSRI_HLR to construct the Send Routeing Info negative response message. This negative response parameter is globaldata, accessible by the process SRI_HLR.
Sheet 2: the procedure CAMEL_CSI_Check_HLR is specific to CAMEL; it is specified in 3GPP TS 23.078 [12]. If theHLR does not support CAMEL, processing continues from the "No" exit of the test"Result=CSI active?".
Sheet 2: the procedure CCBS_Handling_HLR is specific to CCBS; it is specified in 3GPP TS 23.093 [22]. If the HLRdoes not support CCBS, processing continues from the "Yes" exit of the test "Result = OK?".
Sheet 3: the procedure OR_HLR_Interrogate_VLR is specific to Optimal Routeing. It is specified in 3GPPTS 23.079 [13]. If the HLR does not support Optimal Routeing, processing continues from the "No" exit of the test"Result=Forward".
Sheet 3: if the HLR does not support Network Indication of Alerting, the test "Alerting pattern required" and the task"Set Alerting Pattern" are omitted.
Sheet 3: the procedure CLI_HLR_Set_CLI is specific to Enhanced CLI Handling. It is specified in 3GPPTS 23.081 [14].
Sheet 4: the procedure PRN_Error_HLR can set the negative response parameter which is used by the processSRI_HLR to construct the Send Routeing Info negative response message. This negative response parameter is globaldata, accessible by the process SRI_HLR.
Sheet 4: the procedure Forward_CUG_Check is specific to CUG. If the HLR does not support CUG, processingcontinues from the "Yes" exit of the test "Result=Call allowed?".
Sheet 4: the test "Forwarding enquiry" is specific to Support of Optimal Routeing. If the HLR does not support OptimalRouteing, processing continues from the "No" exit of the test.
Sheet 4: the procedure CAMEL_CSI_Check_HLR is specific to CAMEL; it is specified in 3GPP TS 23.078 [12]. If theHLR does not support CAMEL, processing continues from the "No" exit of the test "Result=CSI active?".

7.2.2.3 Procedure Subscription_Check_HLR
It is an implementation option to carry out the check for operator determined barring of incoming calls before the checkon provisioning of the requested basic service.
The negative response "Call barred" indicates whether the reason is operator determined barring or supplementaryservice barring, according to the result returned by the procedure Check_IC_Barring.
The procedure IC_CUG_Check is specific to CUG. If the HLR does not support GUG, processing continues from the"Yes" exit of the test "Result=Call allowed?".
The negative response "CUG reject" indicates whether the reason is:
- Incoming calls barred within CUG;
- Requested basic service violates CUG constraints;
- Subscriber not member of CUG
according to the cause returned by the procedure IC_CUG_Check.
7.2.2.4 Procedure First_Forwarding_HLR
The MS is not reachable if any of the following conditions is satisfied:
- The HLR has no location information for the subscriber;
- The subscriber record is marked as MS purged;
- The subscriber record is marked as MSC area restricted;
- The subscriber record is marked as Roaming Restricted due to Unsupported Feature;
- The subscriber is marked as deregistered because of subscription restrictions on roaming
7.2.2.5 Procedure PRN_Error_HLR
The procedure CCBS_Report_PRN_Failure is specific to CCBS; it is specified in 3GPP TS 23.093 [22]. The proceduredoes not return a value; the following tests are on the value of the Provide Roaming Number negative response.
The procedure Super_Charged_SRI_Error_HLR is specific to Super-Charger; it is specified in 3GPP TS 23.116 [23]. Ifthe HLR does not support Super-Charger, processing continues from the "No" exit of the test "Result=Purged?".
If the HLR does not support Optimal Routeing, processing starts with the test "Negative response=Facility notsupported?".
7.2.2.6 Procedure Forward_CUG_Check
7.2.2.7 Procedure Derive_Requested_Basic_Service_HLR
The rules for deriving a Circuit-switched bearer capability from ISDN compatibility information or the MSISDN of theB subscriber are specified in 3GPP TS 29.007 [29]. If a GSM bearer capability cannot be derived from the ISDNcompatibility information or the MSISDN of the B subscriber, the HLR applies a default basic service according to therequirements of the operator.
7.2.2.8 Procedure Check_IC_Barring
7.2.2.9 Procedure IC_CUG_Check
7.2.2.10 Procedure Handle_CFU
The test "Normal call" refers to the value of the indicator returned by the process MAF007.

The procedure CAMEL_CHECK_SII2_CDTI is specific to CAMEL Phase 3 or later; it is specified in 3GPP TS 23.078[12]. If the GMSC does not support CAMEL Phase 3 or later, processing continues from the "Yes" exit of the test"Result = Pass?".
7.2.2.11 Procedure Handle_CFNRc
The test "Mobile subscriber not reachable" refers to the value of the indicator returned by the process MAF010.
The procedure CAMEL_CHECK_SII2_CDTI is specific to CAMEL Phase 3 or later; it is specified in 3GPP TS 23.078[12]. If the GMSC does not support CAMEL Phase 3 or later, processing continues from the "Yes" exit of the test"Result = Pass?".

7.2.3 Functional requirements of VLR
7.2.3.1 Process PRN_VLR
Sheet 1: the procedure Check_Parameters is specified in subclause 7.2.2.2.
Sheet 1: the test "Pre-paging allowed" takes the "yes" exit if:
- the information element "Pre-paging supported" was present in the Provide Roaming Number message, or
- as an operator option, the paging procedure can be completed before the minimum timer value for the ProvideRoaming Number operation timer in the HLR has elapsed.
Sheet 1: the procedure Check_Reason_In_Serving_Network_Entity is specific to Super-Charger; it is specified in 3GPPTS 23.116 [23]. If the VLR does not support Super-Charger, processing continues from the "No" exit of the test"Result=Purged?".
Sheet 2, sheet 3, sheet 6, sheet 7: the procedure CAMEL_SET_SOA is specific to CAMEL; it is specified in 3GPPTS 23.078 [12].
Sheet 2, sheet 3, sheet 6, sheet 7: the task "Store alerting pattern (if received)" is executed only if the VLR supports thefeature Network Indication of Alerting.
Sheet 2, sheet 3, sheet 6, sheet 7: the procedure CLI_PRN_VLR is specific to Enhanced CLI Handling. It is specified in3GPP TS 23.081 [14].
Sheet 2, sheet 3, sheet 6, sheet 7: the procedure CCBS_Handle_PRN is specific to CCBS; it is specified in 3GPPTS 23.093 [22].
Sheet 3, sheet 4: the number of unused authentication sets which triggers the VLR to request further authentication setsfrom the HLR is an operator option.
Sheet 3, sheet 4: the process Fetch_Authentication_Sets_VLR is specified in subclause 7.1.2.11.
Sheet 4: the procedure Search_For_MS_VLR is specified in subclause 7.3.2.3.
Sheet 4: the test "Paging via SGSN possible" takes the "yes" exit if:
- the Gs interface is implemented; and
- there is an association established for the MS between the MSC/VLR and the SGSN.
Sheet 7, sheet 8: the state variables PAR pending, PAR successful and Fatal PAR error are global data, accessible to thematching instance of the process ICH_VLR, which is linked by the MSRN.
Sheet 8: this process communicates with the matching instance of the process ICH_VLR, which is linked by the MSRN.
Sheet 8: the test " Fatal PAR error?" takes the "Yes" exit if:
- the MS failed authentication, or
- the MS failed IMEI checking, or
- the HLR returned an "Unknown subscriber" error
during the handling of the Process Access Request.
7.2.3.2 Process Restore_Subscriber_Data_VLR
7.2.3.3 Process PSI_VLR
Sheet 1: the procedure Check_Parameters is specified in subclause 7.2.2.2. If the HLR requests neither locationinformation nor subscriber state, the VLR treats this as a missing parameter.
ETSI
ETSI TS 123 018 V3.6.0 (2000-09)1223GPP TS 23.018 version 3.6.0 Release 1999
7.2.3.4 Procedure Retrieve_Location_Info_VLR
The variable Current location retrieved is used to indicate that the location information was obtained by paging the MS.
The test "Retrieve location info from SGSN" takes the "Yes" exit if:
- the Gs interface is implemented; and
- there is an association established between the MSC/VLR and the SGSN.
The stored location information consists of:
- the service area ID (for UMTS) or cell ID (for GSM) of the cell in which the MS last established radio contact;
- the location number, geodetic information and geographical information derived from the service area ID or cellID if the VLR is capable of doing so (the mapping from service area ID or cell ID to location number is network-specific and outside the scope of the UMTS and GSM standards);
- the age of the location information.
The received location information consists of:
- the cell ID received in the paging response message;
- the location number and geographical information derived from the cell ID if the VLR is capable of doing so (themapping from cell ID to location number is network-specific and outside the scope of the GSM standard);
- the age of the location information.
The output signal Send MS information towards the SGSN indicates that the required information is mobile locationinformation.
The derivation of the location number, geodetic information and geographical information from the received servicearea ID or cell ID is a VLR operator option (the mapping from service area ID or cell ID to location number is network-specific and outside the scope of the UMTS and GSM standards).
7.2.3.5 Procedure Retrieve_Current_Location_VLR
The test "Paging via SGSN possible" takes the "yes" exit if:
- the Gs interface is implemented; and
- the VLR configuration requires paging via the SGSN during VLR restoration.
The output signal Page MS towards the SGSN includes or omits the Location area identity parameter depending on theavailability of this information. If it is omitted, the signal Page MS is sent to every SGSN to which the VLR isconnected.

7.3.2 Functional requirements of VLR
7.3.2.1 Process ICH_VLR
Sheet 1: if the MSRN received in the Send Info For Incoming Call is not allocated or there is no IMSI record for theIMSI identified by the MSRN, this is treated as an unknown MSRN.
Sheet 1: the procedure CAMEL_ICH_VLR is specific to CAMEL phase 3 or later; it is specified in 3GPPTS 23.078 [12]. If the VLR does not support CAMEL phase 3 or later, processing continues from the possible call ofthe procedure CCBS_ICH_Set_CCBS_Call_Indicator.
Sheet 1: the procedure CCBS_ICH_Set_CCBS_Call_Indicator is specific to CCBS; it is specified in 3GPPTS 23.093 [22].
Sheet 1, sheet 2, sheet 5: the procedure CCBS_ICH_VLR_Report_Failure is specific to CCBS; it is specified in 3GPPTS 23.093 [22].
Sheet 1, sheet 3: the procedure CCBS_ICH_Report_Not_Reachable is specific to CCBS; it is specified in 3GPPTS 23.093 [22].
Sheet 2: this process communicates with the matching instance of the process PRN_VLR, which is linked by theMSRN.
Sheet 2: the test "Paging via SGSN possible" takes the "yes" exit if:
- the Gs interface is implemented; and
- there is an association established for the MS between the MSC/VLR and the SGSN.
Sheet 3: the test "NDUB?" takes the "Yes" exit if the Page MS negative response or the Search for MS negativeresponse had the value Busy Subscriber (NDUB).
Sheet 3: the procedure Get_CW_Subscription_Info_VLR is specific to Call Waiting. If the VLR does not support CallWaiting, processing continues from the "No" exit of the test "CW available?".
Sheet 3: the procedure Get_CW_Subscription_Info_Multicall_VLR is specific to Multicall; it is specified in 3GPPTS 23.135 [34]. If the VLR does not support both Multicall and Call Waiting, processing continues from the "No" exitof the test "CW available?".
Sheet 3: the VLR uses the basic service returned in the Page MS negative response or the Search for MS negativeresponse Busy Subscriber (More calls possible) to determine whether call waiting is available.
Sheet 3: the procedure Get_LI_Subscription_Info_MT_VLR is specific to CLIP and COLR. If the VLR supportsneither CLIP nor COLR, the procedure call is omitted.
Sheet3: the procedure Get_AoC_Subscription_Info_VLR is specific to AoC; it is specified in subclause 7.1.2.15.
Sheet 3 sheet 6: the procedure CLI_ICH_VLR_Add_CLI is specific to Enhanced CLI Handling. It is specified in 3GPPTS 23.081 [14].
Sheet 3: the procedure CCBS_ICH_Handle_NDUB is specific to CCBS; it is specified in 3GPP TS 23.093 [22]. If theVLR does not support CCBS, processing continues from the "Forward" exit of the test "Result".
Sheet 3: the procedure Process_Access_Request_VLR is specified in subclause 7.1.2.2.
Sheet 3: the output signal Page MS towards the SGSN includes the Location area identity parameter.
Sheet 3: if the VLR does not support CUG, handling continues from the "No" exit of the test "CUG info present?".
Sheet 4, sheet 6: the procedure CAMEL_CHECK_SII2_CDTI is specific to CAMEL Phase 3 or later; it is specified in3GPP TS 23.078 [12]. If the GMSC does not support CAMEL Phase 3 or later, processing continues from the "Yes"exit of the test "Result = Pass?".
Sheet 5, sheet 6: the procedure CD_Authorization is specific to Call Deflection, it is specified in 3GPP TS 23.072 [11].If the VLR does not support Call Deflection, processing continues from the "Yes" exit of the test "Result=Aborted?".
ETSI
ETSI TS 123 018 V3.6.0 (2000-09)1933GPP TS 23.018 version 3.6.0 Release 1999
Sheet 5, sheet 6: the procedure CCBS_ICH_Handle_UDUB is specific to CCBS; it is specified in 3GPP TS 23.093 [22].
Sheet 6: the test "NDUB?" is executed only if the VLR supports CCBS. If the VLR does not support CCBS, processingcontinues from connector 5.
Sheet 7: the procedure CCBS_ICH_Set_CCBS_Target is specific to CCBS; it is specified in 3GPP TS 23.093 [22].
Sheet 7: the procedure Handle_CFNRc is specified in subclause 7.2.2.11.
Sheet 8: the procedure Forward_CUG_Check is specific to CUG; it is specified in subclause 7.2.2.6. If the VLR doesnot support CUG, processing continues from the "Yes" exit of the test "Result=Call allowed?".
Sheet 8: the procedures CAMEL_O_CSI_Check_VLR, and CAMEL_D_CSI_Check_VLR are specific to CAMELphase 3 or later; they are specified in 3GPP TS 23.078 [28].
7.3.2.2 Procedure Derive_Requested_Basic_Service_VLR
If the VLR did not receive a basic service for the call in the Send Info For Incoming Call, and did not receive a GSMbearer capability in the Provide Roaming Number, it applies a default basic service according to the requirements of theoperator.
7.3.2.3 Procedure Search_For_MS_VLR
The test "Paging via SGSN possible" takes the "yes" exit if:
- the Gs interface is implemented; and
- the VLR configuration requires paging via the SGSN during VLR restoration.
The output signal Page MS towards the SGSN omits the Location area identity parameter. It is sent to every SGSN towhich the VLR is connected.
7.3.2.4 Procedure Get_CW_Subscription_Info_VLR
The VMSC may abort the transaction with the VLR while a response is awaited from the process MAF013. Themessage is saved for processing after return from the procedure.
7.3.2.5 Procedure Get_LI_Subscription_Info_MT_VLR
The VMSC may abort the transaction with the VLR while a response is awaited from the process CLIP_MAF001 or theprocess COLR_MAF040. The message is saved for processing after return from the procedure.
7.3.2.6 Procedure Handle_CFB
The test "Normal call busy" refers to the value of the indicator returned by the process MAF008.
The procedure CAMEL_CHECK_SII2_CDTI is specific to CAMEL Phase 3 or later; it is specified in 3GPP TS 23.078[12]. If the GMSC does not support CAMEL Phase 3 or later, processing continues from the "Yes" exit of the test"Result = Pass?".

Annex A (informative):Handling of an IAM at an MSCAn MSC which receives an IAM from an originating exchange may react in three different ways:
- It acts as a transit exchange, i.e. it relays the IAM to a destination exchange determined by analysis of the calledparty address, and thereafter relays other telephony signalling between the originating and destination exchangeuntil the connection is released. This behaviour is not specific to UMTS or GSM;
- It acts as a terminating exchange, i.e. it attempts to connect the call to an MS currently registered in the servicearea of the MSC;
- It acts as a GMSC, i.e. it interrogates an HLR for information to route the call. If the HLR returns routeinginformation, the MSC uses the routeing information from the HLR to construct an IAM, which it sends to adestination exchange determined by analysis of the routeing information from the HLR.
Sheet 1: when the MSC co-ordinating process has decided whether the MSC is to act as a terminating VMSC, a GMSCor a transit exchange, it forwards the IAM to an idle instance of the appropriate process.
Sheet 2: after the MSC co-ordinating process has sent an IAM to an instance of the process MT_GMSC or ICH_MSC,it acts as a transparent relay for messages received from the originating exchange and the process instance (denoted by"offspring"). After the MSC co-ordinating process has relayed a Release message, it returns to the idle state.
Sheet 2: after the MSC co-ordinating process has sent an IAM to a destination exchange, it acts as a transparent relayfor messages received from the originating exchange and the destination exchange. After the MSC co-ordinatingprocess has relayed a Release message, it returns to the idle state.
