 What is GSM?

Global System for Mobile (GSM) is a

second generation cellular standard
developed to cater voice services and
data delivery using digital modulation
BTS - 20W
Mobile - 2W-0.8W
Uplink-890-915 MHz (MT to BTS)
Downlink-935-960MHz (BTS to MT)
Types Of Cells
Architecture of the GSM Network
1.Copy of the HLR data for
visiting subscribers
2. More precise location of
the Mobile Station

rough location of the Mobile Station (identification of the

VLR where the MS is now registered)

IMEI number
 GSM System Architecture-I
• Mobile Station (MS)
Mobile Equipment (ME)
Subscriber Identity Module (SIM)
• Base Station Subsystem (BSS)
Base Transceiver Station (BTS)
Base Station Controller (BSC)
• Network Switching Subsystem(NSS)
Mobile Switching Center (MSC)
Home Location Register (HLR)
Visitor Location Register (VLR)
Authentication Center (AUC)
Equipment Identity Register (EIR)
 Handover

There are basically four types of handovers:

• Internal or intra-BSS handover, which can be:

Intra –cell handover
Inter-cell handover.

• External or inter-BSS handover, which can be:

Intra-MSC handover.
Inter-MSC handover.
The Geographical Areas of the GSM
Network
Outgoing Call
1. MS sends dialled number to
BSS
2. BSS sends dialled number to
MSC
3,4 MSC checks VLR if MS is
allowed the requested
service.If so,MSC asks BSS to
allocate resources for call.
5 MSC routes the call to GMSC
6 GMSC routes the call to local
exchange of called user
7, 8,
9,10 Answer back(ring back) tone
is routed from called user to
MS via GMSC,MSC,BSS
 1. Calling a GSM
Incoming Call subscribers
2. Forwarding call to
GSMC
3. Signal Setup to HLR
4. 5. Request MSRN
from VLR
6. Forward responsible
MSC to GMSC
7. Forward Call to
current MSC
8. 9. Get current status
of MS
10.11. Paging of MS
12.13. MS answers
14.15. Security checks
16.17. Set up connection
 OMC-R functions

• Configuration management
• Performance management
• Fault management
 Configuration management
• Create / change / display radio logical
configuration
• Create / delete cell
• Display / change BSS / cell parameters
• Add / move / delete BTS
• Display / change TS allocation
• Display / change Abis Topology
 Performance management
• Start/stop measurements
• Display of counters and indicators (events,
resource usage)  display graphs.
Alerter when preset thresholds are crossed
 Fault management
• Alarm display
• State display
• Object handling
