 Basic GSM network
overview – CONT.
› GSM Identities
– IMSI: Int mobile sub identity:
› IMSI=MCC+MNC+MSIN (452 + 02 + xxxxxxxxxx)
– MSISDN:
› MSISDN=CC+NDC+SN (84+91+4243111)
– MSRN: Mobile station roaming number
› MSRN=CC+NDC+SN
– IMEI: International mobile equipment identity
– TMSI: Temporary mobile subscriber identity: 4 octet
– MGT: Mobile global title
› MMGT=CC+NDC+MSIN (84+91+xxxxx)
– GT: Global title: SCCP addr
– KI: authentication key

 Location updating

› Normal location updating: (IDLE)

– New LU using IMSI
– Power on and LAI is different
› IMSI detach: Power off (normal way)
DET (Detached)
› IMSI attach: (IDLE)
– Power on in the same LAI/MSC (No message to HLR)
› Periodic location update (IDLE/IDET)
– Inform the network: I’m still here.

Periodic Location updating:

– BSC:
› RLSBP
T3212: normally 2/3 hours
– MSC:
› MGIDI:BTDM = , GTDM =
- BTDM = Base time duration, =T3212.
- GTDM = Guard time duration.
- If LU not perform during BTDM+ GTDM
IDET - implicit
detached
› MGADI:TDD= x (day)
- If LU not perform during x day
remove from MSC

Presentation | Public | © Ericsson AB 2013 | 2013-03-25 | Page 12

 Location updating - tt

› IMSI DET:
– Message not send to HLR. IN HLR the MS state still normal with
VLR_addr.
› MGSDP
› HGSDP
› IMSI ATTACH: Must still be in the same Location area
– LU Message not send to HLR. Only state in MSC/VLR change back
to IDLE
› MGSDP

call
› If the B-number is not in B-number analysis:
– EOS = 100 (ANESP:ES=100)
announcement
› Outgoing call baring: Operator/Subscriber control.
– During LU, Baring data is send from HLR to MSC/VLR
– HGSDP:MSISDN=; Ex: OBO-1
– MGSLP:IMSI=, Ex: BAOC
– The CBA data from HLR will be mapped to TLDN in MSC/VLR
(coding in block MTV) and will be used in B-number/D-number
analysis to bar outgoing calls.

› Some info about paging method:

– Paging on LAI or global:
› If LAI is available
1st page is LAI based
› PAGREP1LA: The AXE parameter defines repeating conditions
for paging after unsuccessful paging in one particular location
area. (=2 in VNP)
› PAGREPGLOB: The AXE parameter defines repeating
conditions for paging after unsuccessful global paging. (=0 in

call - tt
› If subscriber have services baring incoming calls:
– Call end in GMSC
– When receiving message: “send routing info” in HLR. HLR send
back message “Call Barred”
› Not LU Sub (VLR_addr unknown):
– Call end in GMSC.
– HLR return with “absent subscriber”
› IMSI detach:
– Call end in GMSC
– When receiving: “Provide roaming no” in VLR
If MS is in DET

Check PROVONDETACH if normal
send back “absent
subscriber” signal to HLR
› Battery off/out of coverage:
– VLR will not detach

 Call Forwarding

› Call forward unconditional

– CFU: Callwarding unconditional
– CFNRC: Callfowarding on MS not reachable
– Trigger by GMSC
› Call forward conditional
– CFB: Callfowarding on MS busy
– CFNRY: Callforwading on MS no reply
– CFNRC: Callfowarding on MS not reachable
– Trigger by Visiting MSC
