Description 2 Overview
2 Overview
2.1 Introduction
Ater Compression Transmission is a technology in which the TransCoder Subrack (TCS) of a
BSC is configured remotely on the MSC side and the Ater interface uses IP over PPP over
Ch-STM-1 transmission to carry speech signals. Meanwhile, the techniques such as Ater
multiplexing, PPP multiplexing, and IP header compression are used for data compression on
the Ater interface to increase the transmission efficiency on the Ater interface.
Ater Compression Transmission has the following characteristics:
l Remote location of the TCS decreases the transmission bandwidth usage by 75%. After
the Ater Compression Transmission feature is enabled, the transmission bandwidth usage
on the Ater interface additionally decreases by 30%.
l IP over PPP enables IP packets to be transmitted over the traditional TDM network. This
protects the legacy investment of the operator who owns the TDM transmission
resources.
l If the Abis interface uses the IP/High-Level Data Link Control (HDLC) transmission, no
coding or decoding boards are required to convert the transcoder and adapter unit
(TRAU) speech frames to packets. This saves the board configuration costs.

Description 3 Technical Description
3 Technical Description
3.1 Overview
The TRAU frames are used to carry speech signals in a TDM network. Packet TRAU
(pTRAU) frames are used to carry signals in IP/HDLC transmission mode.
When the Ater Compression Transmission feature is enabled, the Ater interface uses IP over
PPP transmission to carry speech signals whereas it still use TDM transmission to carry radio
signaling links (RSLs) and operation and maintenance links (OMLs).
To enable Ater Compression Transmission, set ATERTRANSMODE to IP(IP).
3.2 Network Topologies
3.2.1 Network Topology in Non-TC Pool Mode

In non-TC pool networking mode, speech services between the Main Processing Subrack
(MPS)/Extended Processing Subrack (EPS) and the TCS of a BSC are carried in IP over PPP
over Ch-STM-1 mode, as shown in Figure 3-1.
Figure 3-1 Network topology in non-TC pool mode
In Ater compression transmission mode, the MPS/EPS and TCS of a BSC are adjacent nodes
to each other.

GSM BSS
You need to configure the adjacent BSC of the TCS by setting NODET to BSC(Ater
Interface on BSC) and BSCID to 0. Meanwhile, configure the adjacent TCS of the BSC by
setting NODET to TC(Ater Interface on TC).
3.2.2 Network Topology in TC Pool Mode

Figure 3-2 shows the network topology in TC pool mode when the user plane on the Ater
interface is in IP over PPP mode.
Figure 3-2 Network topology in TC pool mode (IP over PPP on the Ater user plane)
Figure 3-3 shows the network topology when both TDM and IP over PPP are used on the
user plane of the Ater interface.

GSM BSS
Figure 3-3 Network topology in TC pool mode (TDM and IP over PPP on the Ater user
plane)
In TC pool networking mode, the MPS/EPS (regarded as the BSC) and TCS that support Ater
compression transmission are adjacent nodes.
You need to configure all the BSCs in the TC pool as the adjacent nodes of the TCS by setting
NODET of each BSC to BSC(Ater Interface on BSC), setting BSCID of the primary BSC to
0, and setting BSCID of every secondary BSC to a non-zero value. Meanwhile, configure the
adjacent TCS of each BSC by setting NODET to TC(Ater Interface on TC).
3.3 Technologies in Ater Compression Transmission
3.3.1 Speech Frame Processing

The timeslots on the Ater interface consist of timeslots for Ater RSLs, timeslots for Ater
OMLs, timeslots for speech services, and timeslots for A interface signaling system No.7
(SS7) links. The Ater interface use IP over PPP transmission to carry only speech signals
whereas it still uses TDM transmission to carry RSLs and OMLs. Figure 3-4 shows the
timeslots on the Ater interface.

GSM BSS
Figure 3-4 Timeslots on the Ater interface
In Ater compression transmission mode, speech frames can be processed in the following
ways:
l Direct transmission of pTRAU frames from the Abis interface board to the Ater interface
board
When the Abis interface uses HDLC or IP transmission, the pTRAU frames are directly
sent from the Abis interface board to the Ater interface board without further processing
by the DPUc board. This reduces the delay of frame processing. Figure 3-5 shows the
signal flow.
Figure 3-5 Signal flow in the MPS/EPS (Abis over HDLC/IP)
l Frame format conversion between the Abis interface board and the Ater interface board
When the Abis interface uses TDM transmission, the DPUc board in the MPS/EPS
performs conversion between TRAU frames on the Abis interface and pTRAU frames on
the Ater interface. In addition, the DPUc board can eliminate the delay variation caused

GSM BSS
by arrival of pTRAU frames when IP/HDLC transmission is used on the Ater interface.
Figure 3-6 shows the signal flow.
Figure 3-6 Signal flow in the MPS/EPS (Abis over TDM)
l Frame format conversion between the Ater interface board and the A interface board
In Ater compression transmission mode, the Ater interface board sends pTRAU frames
to the DPUc board for converting the pTRAU frames to PCM frames used on the A
interface. In addition, the DPUc board can eliminate the delay variation caused by arrival
of pTRAU frames when IP/HDLC transmission is used on the Ater interface, support the
downlink DTX function, and compress the silence frames. This improves the
transmission efficiency on the Ater interface. Figure 3-7 shows the signal flow.
Figure 3-7 Signal flow in the TCS
3.3.2 Packet Multiplexing

In Ater compression transmission mode, the POUc board works as the Ater interface board in
the MPS/EPS/TCS and supports the following packet multiplexing functions:
l Ater multiplexing
Speech frames on the Ater interface are encapsulated in the same format as pTRAU
frames used on the Abis interface. Multiple pTRAU frames are multiplexed into a UDP
packet through the Frame Protocol (FP) multiplexing technology, improving the
transmission efficiency.
l IP header compression
The UDP/IP header can be compressed to decrease the packet header overhead, reduce
packet loss, and shorten the period of packet response.
l PPP multiplexing
Multiple pTRAU frames are multiplexed into a PPP packet to decrease the packet header
overhead and therefore improve the transmission efficiency.

GSM BSS
Packet multiplexing can greatly improve the transmission efficiency in Ater compression
transmission mode when the timeslot resources are limited.
For details about packet multiplexing, see IP Transmission Efficiency Improvement Feature
Parameter Description.
3.3.3 Reliability
Ater Compression Transmission can improve transmission resource utilization. However, due
to the inherent characteristics of IP transmission, more bit errors, delay, and variation are
generated. In addition, IP transmission has more protocol layers than TDM transmission.
Therefore, higher reliability is required.
Ater Compression Transmission provides high reliability at the physical layer and the data
link layer.
l At the physical layer, the active/standby board or port switchover is performed without
disrupting services in the case of a board fault or optical port fault.
l At the data link layer, the MLPPP (Multilink PPP) group is configured to achieve PPP
link redundancy.
For details about packet multiplexing, see IP Transmission Efficiency Improvement Feature
Parameter Description.
In the case of a TC fault, the TC pool function can be enabled to rectify the fault.

Aspect Requirement
GSM networking l If the core network (CN) supports IP

transmission, the A over IP networking
is recommended.
l If the CN does not support IP
transmission and the Abis interface uses
IP or HDLC transmission, the Ater
interface uses IP transmission. This
saves board configuration costs and
transmission resources over the Ater
interface. However, in this case, the
POUc board must be added and the IP
over PPP transmission is used.
l If the Abis interface uses TDM
transmission, using IP transmission over
the Ater interface will increase
configuration costs and degrade speech
quality. In this case, Ater over IP
transmission is not recommended.
l If the Ater interface uses IP
transmission, the Abis and Ater interface
can share the same interface board to
save transmission resources.
