GSM Service Area: Total area served by the combination of all member countries where a mobile can be served. PLMN Service Area:It is one N/W area. MSC Service Area:There can many MSC/VLR in one PLMN area.It is one Mobile Exch. Area. GMSC: All I/C calls for PLMN N/W will be routed through GMSC. In a GSM/PLMN N/W all mobile terminated calls will be routed to a Gateway MSC. Call connections between PLMNs , or to fixed N/Ws must be routed to a GMSC.The GMSC contains the Inter working functions to make these connections. Location Area Cells

LOCATION AREA:There are several LA in a MSC/VLR combination A LA is a part of the MSC/VLR service area in which a MS may move freely without updating location information to the MSC/VLR exchange that control the LA. Within a LA a paging message is broadcast in order to find the called mobile subs. LA can be identified by system using the LAI. CELL.A cell is an identity served by one BTS. The MS distinguishes between cells using the BASE STATION IDENTIFICATION CODE(BSIC) that the cell site broadcast over the air.

MS Initialization / Network Attachment 1. MS Powered on. 2. Frequency Synchronization - MS scans entire 124 carriers and monitors RF levels.

- several readings are taken to get accurate estimate


the channel power.

- MS then searches for Frequency Correction burst (FCCH) on


the channel with strongest RF level. - FCCH present in time slot T0 & has a fixed pattern of 142 0s.

- After tuning to FCCH MS synchronizes in time with SCH .

MS Initialization / Network Attachment 3. Synchronization in Time - SCH occurs in next frame in same time slot as FCCH.

- The occurrence of SCH is eight burst period ( BPs ) later than FCCH.
- SCH contains precise timing information and current frame number to which MS is synchronized. - After successful synchronization the MS will read the TDMA frame number and Base Station Identity Code BSIC .

- BSIC consists of - PLMN colour code ( 3 bits )


- BS colour code ( 3 bits ).

MS Initialization / Network Attachment MS location is determined by cell identification of strongest BCCH signal received by MS. MS regularly measures the received signal strength of BCCH at least once every 6 sec ( Superframe Duration).

MS stores at least six strongest BCCH and their cell identification in SIM.

MS decodes information on BCCH and gets Location Area Identity ( LAI ).

If the information stored on SIM does not match with the

information MS thinks that it has moved to new location and sends LA update request to BSS.

GSM Signaling Protocols Overview

What is Mobility Management ( MM ) ? Subscriber Data management at MSC/VLR


Subscriber data from HLR are retrieved by MM at the time of first location up-dating of a subscriber. Dynamic data changes by subscriber are also managed by MM at MSC/VLR.

Operator initiated data changes for a subscriber are also managed by MM.

Services Provided to Upper Layers


MM sub-layer provides basic services to upper layer CM sublayer.
MM handover procedures provide smooth transition from one radio link to other.

What is Mobility Management ( MM ) ? Subscriber Authentication and Confidentiality management


MM procedures ensure authenticity of a subscriber.
MM procedures ensure data confidentiality at radio interface.

MM Procedures

MM Common Procedures :
TMSI Reallocation Procedure.

Authentication Procedure.
Identification Procedure. IMSI Detach Procedure.

Ciphering Procedure.
Abort Procedure. MM Specific Procedures : Location Updating Procedure. IMSI Attach Procedure.

MM Procedures A MM specific procedure can only be started if no other MM specific procedure is running.

During the lifetime of a MM specific procedure if a MM connection establishment is requested by a CM entity, the request will either be rejected or delayed until the running of MM specific procedure is terminated.
Any MM common procedure Procedure ( except IMSI detach) may be initiated during MM specific procedure. The MS side should wait for release of RR connection used for a MM specific procedure before a new MM specific procedure or MM connection establishment is started.

Authentication

Authentication is used to check the validity of a mobile subscriber.

AUTHENTICATION

( 32 bits )

Ki ( 128 bits) : Identification Key

- Purpose : Ki is used to calculate SRES and Kc. - Ki is stored in SIM and HLR.

- Ki is never transmitted over signaling network.

RAND ( 128 bits ):Random Number

- Purpose : RAND is used to calculate SRES and Kc.

Kc ( 64 bits ) : Ciphering Key

- Purpose : Kc is used to encrypt data over radio interface.


SRES ( 32 bits) :Signed Response

Ciphering

Ciphering is used to encrypt data on radio interface.

Authentication Procedure

Authentication procedure is always initiated and controlled by the n/w.


The purpose of authentication procedure is two fold : 1. To check identity provided by the MS. 2. To supply n/w parameters to MS to calculate Kc.

AUTHENTICATION PROCEDURE

N/W

Authentication Procedure
Authentication Triplets :
- At n/w side, authentication procedure requires authentication triplets.

- Authentication triplets contains


-RAND ( 128 bits ). - SRES ( 32 bits ).

- Kc ( 64 bits ). - The network can have more than one triplets.


- The operator can allow reuse of triplets.

- The index of currently used triplet is called CKSN ( Ciphering Key Sequence Number ).

Location Updating Procedure

This is a general procedure which is used for following purposes -

Normal Location Updating MS moves to new LA.

Periodic Location Updating To notify periodic availability of MS to the network. IMSI Attach MS switched on for first time in new LA or MS switched off and on.

Location Update Scenario

Each time MS moves to new LA corresponding VLR is informed.


Case - I Old LA and new LA in same VLR area MS given new TMSI . Location updated in VLR memory. Case - II Old LA and new LA in different VLR area HLR updates.

old VLR erases data.


new VLR records relevant parameters. MS is given new TMSI.
