Overview of BSSGP architecture


[attachment=29429]

Major functionalities and services provided by the BSS


1) Besides transportation of LLC PDU, BSS in GPRS access network performs
the signaling with SGSN for Mobility management, network management
associated Gb interface (for BSS-SGSN node management) and functions
associated with packet Flow context (PFC).
2) BSS maintains user specific information to enable RLC/MAC for transmit
LLC PDU to MS in user specific manner. Such as radio access capability,
packet flow identifier (best effort traffic, signals and SMS), bit rate,
transmission mode etc.
3) After each Routing Area Update (RAU), BSS updates, deletes or
Create new BVCI corresponding to TLLI given by SGSN and BSS finds
MS from context corresponding to TLLI to send paging request to MS
4) The BSS shall control the flow of BSSGP PDUs to its BVC buffers
by indicating to the SGSN the maximum allowed throughput in total
for each BVC and . The amount of buffered BSSGP PDUs should be
optimised to efficiently use the available radio resource.



This section describes the BSSGP layer. It is responsible for the management of the BVC which corresponds to the virtual connection in which all the signaling and the data are sent to a particular cell.
The first section explains the layers to which BSSGP provides services. The following sections detail the procedures that are used to provide services to these layers. The second section describes the procedures that are used in the interface for the transfer of uplink and downlink user data. The third section describes the procedures that are used for GMM signaling transfer. The fourth section deals with the procedure used to manage the BVC. The last section deals with PFM procedures.

BSSGP service model


Figure 6.20 describes the BSSGP service model. It presents all layers to which BSSGP provides services, along with its service access points (SAPs). Provides services to the following layers:
• LLC. BSSGP provides functions that control the transfer of LLC frames transmitted between the SGSN and the MS through the Gb interface.
• GMM. BSSGP provides functions associated with mobility management between an SGSN and a BSS.
• NM. This refers to the functions associated with managing the virtual connections between the SGSN and the BSS and the control of the BSS or SGSN nodes such as flow control.
• Relay (RL). This layer acts as a relay between the Gb interface and the radio interface. It controls the transfer of LLC frames between the RLC / MAC and BSSGP layers.
• PFM. This handles the management of the BSS packet flow contexts between the SGSN and the BSS.
