SoftX3000 SS7 Functional Structure
SS7 has two parts:

User Part (UP) Message Transfer Part (MTP).
MTP : enables reliable transfer of signaling messages

between user functions.
SS7 messages can be transmitted over

narrowband TDM transmission network (i.e. MTP),
over broadband IP network (the protocol used for transmitting SS7 over IP network is SIGTRAN.)
UP :
the independent user part of different users

it is the functional entity for various call services

MTP - Overview
The main function
to provide reliable signaling message transfer in the signaling network
Feature : has measures to avoid or reduce

message loss repetition loss of sequence
MTP consists of three function levels:

signaling data link (MTP1) signaling link function (MTP2) signaling network function (MTP3).
9
MTP1
MTP1 definition:
Defining the physical, electric and functional characteristics of signaling data link, as well as access methods.
Equivalent to the physical layer of OSI seven-layer protocol

structure, and used to generate and receive the signals over physical channels
Signaling Data Link :

A bidirectional transmission channel for a signaling. Composed of two-way data channels. The standard bit-rate is 64kbit/s
which also can be applied to the transmission link with lower rate
(such as 4.8kbit/s) or that with higher rate (2048kbit/s)
10
MTP2
MTP2 definition:
Having Signaling link function .
It is used to transmit signaling to data link, and cooperates with MTP1

to ensure reliable signaling link between two directly connected signaling points.
Signaling link function can be sub-divided into

Signaling Message Processing
Message routing function:
To determine the outgoing signaling link for transmitting messages to destination point
Message identification function:
To check whether the destination signaling point in received message is a local office signaling point
Message allocation function:
To distribute received messages (sent to the point) to
corresponding UPs
15
Signaling Network Management
Signaling service management:
To transfer signaling service from one link or route to one

or multiple different links or routes, reset MTP in a signaling point or slow down the traffic in case of congestion
Signaling link management:
To recover faulty signaling link, activate idle (non-arranged) links, and deactivate arranged signaling links.
Signaling route management:
To distribute the messages related to signaling network

status, block or unblock signaling routes
16
Message Format
MTP has three basic signaling unit formats:
Message Signaling Unit (MSU)

To transmit messages of respective UPs, signaling network management messages as well as signaling network test and maintenance messages.)
Link Status Signaling Unit (LSSU)

LSSU provides the link status information to perform the connection and recovery of signaling links
Fill-In Signaling Unit (FISU)

FISU is used to maintain normal operation of the signaling link and implement fill-in function when no MSU or LSSU is transmitted over the signaling link.
