GSM: Properties
digital transmission, integrated data communication
roaming (mobility between different network operators)
good transmission quality (error detection and -correction)
scalable (large number of participants possible)
security mechanisms (authentication, authorization, encryption)
good resource use (frequency and time division multiplex)
inte ration with fixed tele hone network

GSM: Structure Operation and Maintenance Center (OMC) - logical, central structure with HLR,
AuC (Authentication Center) - authentication, storage of symmetrical keys,generation of encryption keys
Equipment Identity Register (EIR) - storage of device attributes of allowed, faultyand blocked devices (white, gray, black list)
- ,networks, assigned to one VLR each
Base Station Subsystem (BSS): technical radio center
Base Station Controller (BSC): control center Base Transceiver Station (BTS): radio tower / antenna

There is a continuous stream of TDMA
frames between the MS and the BTS.
Each time slot is regarded as a physical
that is 0.557ms long. Information is
transmitted as bursts each TDMA frame
period thus burst is the content of a
physical channel. The burst contains the
payload and security information whichguarantees high data reliability and

transcoder forwards the SS7 signalling between the MSC and the BSC in time slot 16. The
TRX signalling is transmitted between the BSC and the BTS at bit rates 16, 32 and 64kbps
depending on the producer. O&M alarms are transmitted over the A-ter and A-bis interfaceat 16; 16 or 64kbps respectively or as inband signalling in a traffic channel

S eech and user data is transmitted
at a data rate of 64kbps over the Ainterface; 16kbps over the A-ter
transcoded speech or rate adapted
data and 16kbps per sub channel overthe A-bis interface. SMS messages
are transmitted via signalling
channels.

Databases
Home Location Register (HLR), stores data of participants which are registered in anHLR-area
Semi-permanent data:
Call number (Mobile Subscriber International ISDN Number) -MSISDN, e.g.+49/171/333 4444 (country, network, number)
-Country Code (262 for .de) + MNC = Mobile Network Code (01-T-Mobile, 02-Vodafone, 03-eplus, 07-O2) + MSIN = Mobile Subscriber Identification Number
Personal data (name, address, mode of payment)Service profile (call transfer,roam ng- m s e c.
Temporary data:
MSRN (Mobile Subscriber Roaming Number) (country, network, MSC)VLR-address, MSC-address
Authentication Sets of AuC(RAND (128 Bit), SRES (128 Bit), KC(64Bit)) Billing data

MAP is a GSM specific
protocol for non-core related
applications between
elements in the NSS. MAP
based communication occurs
between NSS elements in
the absence of a call.

The example of a location update procedure mentioned previously is notconfined only to the MSC-BSC section, it spans multiple PLMNs. In case
of a first time location update by an international roaming subscriber(where he is not in his home network), the VLR has to get the data from
network.
While a mobile terminated call is being handled, the MSRN has to be
requested from the HLR without routing the call to the HLR.Therefore, for these cases another protocol layer was added to theSS7 called the Mobile Application Part (MAP).
MAP is used for signalling communication between NSS elements.

Signalling in GSM
Between the BSC and the BTS, a signalling protocol known as LAP-D(Link Access Protocol for the ISDN "D" channel) is used. This is thesame pro oco a s use n ne wor s e ween e cus omer
and the network. Between the mobile station and the BTS, the same signalling protocol is
radio transmission medium. This protocol is known as LAP-Dm wherethe "m" denotes modified.
The LAP-D message structure is similar to SS7, but it does not supportnetworking capabilities, therefore, it is used for point to pointconnections.
Protocols for Radio Resource (RR) management are passed using- - .
and Connection Management (CM) are passed between the mobilestation and the MSC.
