2 Overview of DTMF Downlink Message Filter

The terrorism activities such as bomb attacks masterminded by terrorists through an operator's network
severely affect the national security and the development of the operator in the local area. This feature
deletes the DL DTMF messages to prevent terrorists from exploding cell phone bombs through the
operator's network, thus ensuring the network security.

DTMF Downlink Message Filter 3 Technical Description

3 Technical Description
Cell phone bombs, that is, bombs exploded by terrorists using cell phones, severely threaten people
property. Huawei analyzes the principle of cell phone bombs made by terrorists, and implements the
solution of deleting DL DTMF messages to prevent bomb attacks controlled through cell phones.
This feature shields the DL DTMF messages on the user plane and control plane of the Abis interface. In
this case, after the call is set up, the called cell phone will not receive DTMF signals. In this manner,
terrorists cannot use DTMF signals to control the called cell phone to explode bombs.
By shielding DL DTMF signals, this feature enhances the GBSS network security.
