Abstract

A configuration-independent software architecture for implementing a cellular communication network that facilitates communication among a plurality of cellular handsets. The architecture includes a first software functional block for implementing a first set of functions and a second software functional block for implementing a second set of functions. The architecture further includes a configuration-independent linkage block, which has an interface that appears consistent to both the first software functional block and the second software functional block irrespective of a relative position between the second software functional block, the first software functional block, and the configuration-independent linkage block in the cellular communication network. The configuration-independent linkage block facilitates communication between the first software functional block and the second software functional block via the interface utilizing configuration-independent linkage block. Advantageously, the first software functional block, the second software functional block, and the interface remain substantially unchanged when the first software functional block changes its location in the cellular communication network relative to the second software functional block.

Description of the Invention (4) A software is made for a specific cell network structure. In the terminology used herein, the cell network structure refers to the MS C, B S C, and B T S in a cell network, and the special combination of a base or a plurality of bases. When the cellular network structure changes in the conventional technology, for example, by adding or removing B SC or B TS to meet the domain and capacity requirements, the affected software must be recoded to respond to the change. For example, when a B T S is added to a B S C field and communication with the B S C is necessary, the implementation of the conventional implementation B S C must generally be re-coded to match its changes. As another example, if it is decided to incorporate the BSC and BTS functions of FIG. 2 into a substrate, such as providing a smaller package to reduce hardware costs and reduce maintenance and / or upgrades, it must be implemented in the conventional technology. The BSC software and the BTS-implemented software were recoded to cope with the fact that these two components no longer need to use the main box resources to achieve mutual communication (because they are now in the same base). Printed by the Consumer Standards Department of the Central Standards Bureau of the Ministry of Economic Affairs. In addition, if a cell network is constructed as a single substrate, MSC, BSC and BTS are jointly set (such as the patent application under joint examination S / N 08 / 435,709 as disclosed in the examples), and an additional remote BTS is added to the network to expand the capacity of the cellular network in the future. The methods of implementing software in conventional technologies generally require the affected software. Substantially re-coding, these components include MS C, BSC and BTS. Furthermore, examples of the known technology for implementing MSC, BSC, and BTS software for cellular networks require further knowledge of application developers who need to know how data must be transported in a special network configuration. The scale is applicable to the Chinese National Standard (CNS) Λ4 specification (210X 297 mm). The blocks of the software functional blocks of 863 518863 and ding S must be changed to accommodate the number network cell network. Quite an improved method and device in terms of money and money for implementation as an independent cell network j also requires a cell network-built and substantially changes the p-code BTS. More importantly, it is necessary that the unchanged structure of BSC and BTS will not change substantially. A7 B7 V. Invention Description (5) Research and implement software such as msc’bsc. The software function of the conventional technology is to modify the structure of the road. This is a matter of fact. When the demand is upgraded, it expands or shrinks. Actual consumption. For the above reasons, a soft network of cell networks is needed to make it possible to make it possible to improve the method and device to implement MSC 'BSC and' regardless of small blocks .. ~ Make these MSC codes to implement cell networks Blocks communicate using an interface regardless of the cellular network.

For B 2 2 2 both B is implemented on the body base (also remotely located in the geographical SFB 2 and ground change.

The implementation of the three MSC220 of the SFB in the cell 3, B Β τ s 2 2 4 is coupled and integrated through the structural independent connection block (and 2 2 8). this invention A special 'CI LB226 includes an interface that changes regardless of the cell network MSC SFB200 and BSC SF. In other words, regardless of whether the two SF central processing units (CPUs) are implemented on the same real base) but executed on different CPUs, or are However, the MS C BSC SFB222 maintains virtually no c I LB226 communication on the integrated substrate connected by the box line. This paper size applies to Chinese National Standard (CNS) Λ4 specification (210X 297 mm) ~ 10-Printed by the Consumer Cooperatives of the Central Standards Bureau of the Ministry of Economic Affairs 518863 A7 B7 V. Description of the invention (8) When two SFBs are referred to here For the sake of clarity when implemented on the same CPU / substrate, these two SFBs can be executed on the same CPU in the substrate or multiple CPUs in the same substrate. When multiple CPs are disposed in a single substrate, a larger processing power can be provided on the substrate. Multiple CPUs can be tightly coupled, that is, common memory resources and other resources, or loosely coupled, that is, although each CPU has its own memory and other resources, it shares the same bus. On the contrary--,, — _ ',-, when two SFBs are far away from each other, they are executed on different CPUs in different bases, and communication between SFBs requires remote communication resources, for example, E 1. Furthermore, the interface between CILB228 and BSC SFB222 (and between CILB228 and BTS SFB224) remains the same regardless of the best cell network structure.

According to another feature of the present invention, the software codes of the main SFBs, such as MSC SFB220, BSC SFB222, BTS SFB224, and radio-related SFBs (such as TRX SFB 230), remain substantially unchanged regardless of the cell network structure. In this way, each code area used to implement the cell-path components can be modularized, which simplifies network expansion, upgrades, and maintenance. In a feature of the present invention, the main SFBs used to implement the cellular network elements can be flexibly combined, or in a single cPU / substrate or remote from the CPU / substrate combination, so that it can provide a specific solution Use low-cost methods to adapt to specific geographic or capacity requirements. Because the main S F B can be recombined between different c P U / substrates so that it is not necessary to apply the Chinese National Standard (CNS) Λ4 specification (210X297 mm) to this paper size

This feature of the present invention advantageously simplifies the upgrade and expansion of the network. Removal of network components to accommodate changing areas of the cellular network or expansion or contraction of capacity. In the new market, the structure-independent structure of the present invention allows a cell supplier to provide a habit by using a single substrate to solidify all major components (ie, MSC, BSC, BTS, and DRX) A one-cell network that is cheap and achieves higher performance characteristics, for example, using a single substrate to implement all four major components advantageously utilizes implementation backbone resources in hardware and software to reduce costs. As capacity and field requirements increase, for example, to handle more cell phones or expand coverage, the structure-independent structure of the present invention allows network software to expand and contract in a modular and structure-independent manner. Since the main SF B remains substantially unchanged, and the communication methods between them are independent of the system structure, network upgrades and expansions can be substantially simplified. In accordance with this feature of the present invention, change the cell network rhyme! Important shadows. Like software potential energy under CILB / for example, when a cell network is constructed-one-one one ... from a BTS / B SC structure (BTS and B SC coexist on the same CPU / base and MSC From afar) to a BTS / B SC / MSC structure (all three SFBs coexist ^ on the same CPU / base), the change is to implement software functions between the two CILBs between the SFBs, not the SF j itself. However, the CI LB interface through which these SFBs communicate is best to remain substantially unchanged for the implementation of MSC, BSC and B_TS SFBs. BTS SFB224 also communicates with TRX SFB230 via TRX Constructed Independent Link Block (CILB) 232, The paper size is applicable to the Chinese National Standard (CNS) A4 (210 X 297 mm) (Please read the precautions on the back before this page) I Binding-12-518863 A7 B7 V. Description of the invention (10) Regardless of the cell communication structure, that is, whether they coexist on the same CP / substrate or on different cPU / substrates, the interface appears to be substantially unchanged for BTS SFB224 and Trx SFB230. As shown in the example above, the term software functional block is not a shame to implement the code blocks of MSC, BSC and BTS. In fact, it can be applied to any executable code block that performs a specific task in a cellular network and is not affected by changes in the structure and construction of the network. FIG. 4A illustrates an example of a cellular network structure in which BS (: and _MSC SFB coexist on:-a single CPU in a single shoulder and the BTS SFB is located far away on the same CPU on different substrates. In the figure In 4A, MSC SFB220 communicates with BSC SFB222 via CILB226 and BSC SFB222 communicates with BTS SFB224 via CILB228. In the special example of Fig. 4A, the G SM standard is selected for illustrative purposes', although it should be noted that the structure of the present invention is independently linked The block is not limited to any specific protocol. For example, the independently connected block of the present invention can utilize a local area network protocol such as TC P / I Ϊ), or other such as AMP S (Advanced Mobile Phone Service), TACS And similar cellular standards. Since BSC SFB222 and MSC S F B 2 2 0 coexist in the same CPU, C I LB 2 2 6 is regarded as a local interface, especially a local interface that implements the G-S-M related A-interface using communication for communication. In one * embodiment, the “A” interface implemented in the network of FIG. 4A is as described in the GSM specification 08.06. This paper is connected in accordance with the communication standard.

As shown in Figures 3 and 4A, for communication, the CILB is compatible with other substrates, and the BSC and MSC SFB SFB remain substantially unchanged. The interface CILB228 uses the remote mode in Figure 4A to implement G S to BSC SFB222 and ground concealment. Similarly, the CI SLB222 and BTS S related to G SM are partially implemented by CI CILB228 in FIG. 4B, by modifying only the software code, and in CILB232 (a structure in accordance with the present invention independently constructs others_ invites two modularization and Construct an independent party structure without requiring its main SFCBILB interface to reach each of the SFBs.

In a cell network structure on a substrate, the SFBs use their respective CILBs, which are co-located on the same substrate or remotely interfaced. Furthermore, between the BTSs in Fig. 3 and in Figs. 4A and 4B The local method of the independent structure of CILB228 in 4B and the fact that the Ab is interface in Figure M is related.

For example, the function block g BSC management 320, BTS manager 322, channel manager 324, and handover manager 326 are displayed. Similarly, BTS management 328, dedicated channel 330, and shared channel block 332 are displayed in BTS SFB302. Each functional block 320-332 can be thought of as an SFB, that is, it can be remotely implemented or implemented in the same CP / base using the C I LB concept of the present invention without the need to make qualitative changes to its internal code. For the purpose of illustration, two radio-independent SFBs 3 1 2 and 3 1 4 are shown to facilitate communication between the B T S SFB302 and the cell phone (omitted in FIG. 5 to simplify the description).

For illustration purposes, this is discussed here. First of all, through the construction of a C I LB to and from an SFB, independent communication can take place through message transmission.

For sending SSFB to send a message to a box / substrate where the SFB is sent, the received SFB received by the ^ in the SFB of the CILB is remotely located. Also, this CI LB will be properly delivered. As far as the CPU monitors the mailbox and its associated U / FB on the substrate, the sentiment that is remotely placed by the CI can be called by the normal form of the book.

To send data to F I F0 of C I LB3 1 0, for example, B T S S F B 3 0 2 can call the routine Fifo Send once, which is a one-time routine whose implementation details are hidden from BTS S FB 3 0 2. Fifo Send is a module subroutine for transmitting data between BTS SFB 3 02 and F I F0 in c I LB 3 10 in a special cell structure. Since the implementation details about data transmission are hidden in the sub-normal Fifo Send, B TS SFB 3 0 2 can be constructed as a local or remote one relative to the radio independent SFB, but it is only modified by the sub-normal Fifo Send The code in the communication is reached. S F B itself and its interaction with C I L B 3 1 0 do not change substantially with cell structure. This is substantially easier than modifying the much larger S F B implemented, for example, when the cell structure changes, B T S and radio independent blocks are easier than those required in the conventional technology. Although a F I F 0 is shown here for the sake of illustration 'it should be understood that there are other methods of inter-processor communication. Examples of these methods include the use of shared memory, mailboxes, bus protocols (sequence, parallel, and other known protocols), and the like.

BSCSFB 3 5 0 in Figure 6 A uses the A bi S protocol and B T S SFB 3 5 2 communication, which is shown roughly as a dashed line 3 5 4 in Figure 6A. As B, SSFB 3 5 2 and BSCSFB 3 5 0 co-exist in the same CPU / base in the example in Figure 6 A. The communication between the two SFBs can be achieved by using the functions previously implemented by CILB under the interface line 3 5 6 by software function block (SFB) communication (herein referred to as LSC). This communication is performed by line 3 respectively. 7 0 is shown in Figure 6 A.

A boundary of invention description (19) An implementation of the above function. Those skilled in the art should clearly understand these functions, which are well known in the industry and vary according to the implementation of different special interfaces (such as A, I SDN or the like). For example, FIG. 6A shows LSC devices 353 (a) and 353 (b), which facilitate communication over line 370. Note that since S F B of FIG. 6A coexists in the same C P U / base, no box resources are required. The interface line 3 5 6 depicts the structural independent part of CI LB, that is, an interface line that interacts with SFB in a compatible manner regardless of the cell structure.

But the far-end communication and the communication line. One copy, and some implementation details are appropriate in Figure B. Figure 3B in Figure 6 is communicated between B and C in the letter. For the convenience of the communication flow, the protocol can be modified. The interface line 3 can be modified. Data transmission. , B S C is distributed in different letter. It is best to use L B 3 5 6 for understanding and information function. The implementation in CILB is detailed and implemented under Generation 6 to ensure that the CPU / base of SFB350 and BTS is introduced under the special cell structure. The data elements below these two Abs specifications (dotted line 354) are changed so that the material elements can have a convenient vertical approximation. The information structure (synthesis) can be used. The alarm a is shown in Figure 6 A and Figure 6 B. Stacking an application causes each application layer to perform a well-defined function in the context of the entire communication subsystem. It operates in accordance with a defined protocol by exchanging messages, user data and additional control information, and a corresponding stripping layer in the remote system. Each system has a well-defined interface on itself and immediately above and below it. As a result, the implementation of a special protocol layer is independent of all other layers. The paper standard between the first layer and the upper layer is applicable to the Chinese National Standard (CNS) A4 specification (210 X 297 mm) -22-518863 Α7 B7 V. The description of the invention (20) and the layers below it are communicated through a fund In the middle of FIG. 6B, the data element LAPD blocks 364A and 36 in layers 2 a) and 361 (b) are implemented as layer 1.

Figure 7 is a diagram illustrating an example of a message transmission example to facilitate communication between SFBs in an embodiment. Figure 7 shows three SFB400, 402 and SFB400, 402 And 404 can be derived from a single task with a function, for example, to complete one. When there are multiple BTSs in a network, an independent diagram is constructed with one. Now the examples are used to implement the soft discussion in all Beta TSs. It is not particularly relevant. It should be noted that the software functional block of code 4 can work for different codes. In one embodiment, one and each work is related to this work. For example, in the SF noun required for communication, a mailbox represents a message that needs to be transmitted to the B TS. Although 0 0,4 implements the block as well as B is well known to pass or return 4 0 4 to complete the code block identification m β τ and the representative mailbox of Fig. 702 and.

Printed by the Consumer Cooperatives of the Central Standards Bureau of the Ministry of Economic Affairs. A7 ________B7____ V. Description of the invention (paragraph 21) . But in another implementation, each S F B may be associated with its own mailbox. Note that receiving a message requires a mailbox. If an S F B only sends messages, a mailbox is not necessary. In order to achieve communication in the SFB of FIG. 7, the transmitting SFB must know the number of the mailbox associated with the job from which the SFB example was received to send a message, a request, or generally receive the information in the SFB. Note that the transmitting S F B does not need to know the specific location or name in the network receiving the S F B. This is true even when S F B is the executed entity, and there may be more than one S F B associated with a mailbox. For example, a BTS management SFB (328) in Figure 5 may send a message to a specific BTS manager SFB322 by sending a message to a mailbox associated with the B TS manager (see also Figure 5). The target BTS manager SFB322, who has monitored this mailbox, can then pick the delivery message from the mailbox. According to the characteristics and content of the message, the target B T S manager S F B 3 2 2 can then deliver the message to another mailbox or reply to another message by sending it to a mailbox related to the management of B T S. The billion code used for message transmission and return is shown in Figure 7. ,) In layer 1, C I LB can also be implemented through an interface function example. Figure 8 shows how multiple SFBs use subnormals in the first gear set of subnormals 450 to achieve communication in a structure independent manner. According to the interface function example, SFB452 and 454 can call the file set of subroutine 450, either dynamically or at link time, to connect with the SF in which the subroutine must communicate with each other. Examples of the function of calling the sub-normal 4 50 file set include the use of Chinese national standards (cns) A4 specifications (ηοϋ7 mm) for transmitting and receiving messages, timing management, and network management. (Please read the precautions on the back before filling out this page) 518863 Printed by the Consumer Standards Cooperative of the Central Standards Bureau of the Ministry of Economic Affairs A7 B7__ V. Description of the Invention (22) The second normal call of the management interface and the like. Note that each routine can be used by multiple S F B. For example, a sub-routine for reading or writing a file can be used by every SFB that interacts with the disc drive. In order to facilitate the construction of independent communications, the way in which these subroutines are called is preferably maintained substantially the same regardless of the cell structure. Furthermore, the implementation details of how the data is transmitted are best hidden in subroutines from transmitting and receiving SFB. In this way, the subroutine can be adopted by, for example, application developers without any knowledge of the details of the data transfer underneath it and without considering the cell structure. When the cell structure changes: whether it is to spread or receive SFB, or their method of communicating with the subroutine, there is no need to change it explicitly. Only the details of data transmission are hidden in the subroutines from transmitting and receiving SFB, rather they are modified to ensure proper data transmission when the cell structure is changed. Obviously, this feature of the present invention facilitates simplified upgrades, maintenance, and network expansion, because the main SFB remains substantially unchanged. Figure 9A shows a multi-layer communication stack for communication between SFB. On the interface line 500, two SFBs (BSC SFB490 and BTS SFB492) communicate using the application layer protocol shown by line 494, respectively. The protocol is defined by the message structure (synthetic alert, and message flow used to cross the overlay communication in Figure 9A. Note that the dotted line 494 does not represent the actual data communication between BSC SFB490 and BTS SFB 4 92 Paths. These FB call data elements' which are functions for communicating with stacks. The data elements use resources in layers below the CILB interface line 500 to facilitate communication between SFBs.

1T 518863 A 7 ___B7 ___ V. Description of the Invention (23) The data transmission under CILB's interface line 500 is composed of a LAPD layer (respectively, which facilitates communication between LAPD SFB502 (a) and 502 (b)) One of the LAPD layers (represented by the dotted line 4 9 6) is implemented in multiple layers. The data elements on the interface line _5 0 0 contain CILB and the data elements below this interface line 5 0 0. It is best to keep the data unchanged in a special cell structure. In Figure 9A, In the special case, LAPD SFB502 (a) and 50 2 (b) further use data elements for communication with layer 1 printed by SFB504 (a) and 504 (b), which are printed by employees' consumer cooperatives of the Central Standards Bureau of the Ministry of Economic Affairs. Transmission and reception of data on a transmission medium. The interface line 5 0 1 represents the drawing between the LAPD layer and the physical layer, which is exactly E 1 in FIG. 9A. In the example of FIG. 9A, the data transmission below the interface line 501 includes an E1 layer (shown by line 503), which facilitates communication between E1, SFB. If T 1 has been used as a physical layer, the communication between S F B above the interface line 5 0 1 should preferably remain substantially unchanged. The data transfer only below interface line 5 0 1 must be changed below interface line 5 0 1 when using T1 instead of E 1. Obviously, there may be a well-defined stack between the upper and lower layers of If to improve modularity and simplify implementation and changes (for example, between BTS SFB492 and LAPD SFB502 (b) or between LAPD SFB502 (b) And layer 1 SFB504 (b))).

Note that the communication between the data elements themselves can be achieved through the message transmission example or the interface function example described above.

(Please read "Note $ on the back" before filling in the assignment of wireless channels in this IBTS. The handover manager SFB maintains statistics on the effectiveness of individual radio frequencies, and the time gap in a BTS is used to achieve the preparation and execution of the transaction Each of the aforementioned SFBs is associated with a mailbox with a known address to which messages from other SF Bs will be transmitted. In CI LB304, a detail required to implement the transmission of data using the Ab is protocol is displayed. Ab is interface SFb600. Ab is SFB600 is related to the well-known mailbox MBX 4. Similarly, CILB block 306 includes an A interface SFB for implementing the details required to transmit data using the A interface protocol. 602 interface SFB602 is related to A interface SFB602 with mailboxes MBX1 from other SFBs, such as a known address to which SFBs in BSC SFB300 can be transmitted. As indicated earlier, mailboxes related to SFBs can be specifically associated with SFBs It may or may be related to the work under the SFB, and all SFBs derived from the work are related to the same mailbox. In an embodiment, the company prints a transmission table associated with each CPU. The transmission table modifies the information to facilitate data transmission in a special cell structure ^. Then the data transmission information can be specifically constructed by the CIL B code Used to correctly deliver messages received from the functional block of the transmitting software. In one embodiment, if a message must be sent to a mailbox associated with an SF Β that is remote from transmitting SF Β or multiple SF Β, Among them, the method of transmitting SF Β to send its message is preferably kept substantially unchanged in different cell structures. In particular, it is best to maintain the method of transmitting SF Β to address its message.

Description of the invention (26) The quality is unchanged. However, when the message is transmitted from the transmission SFB, The code in the CILB allows the CPU to first negotiate with the transfer table to determine whether the message needs to be sent to a mailbox that communicates with an intermediate processor routine. The intermediate processor routine, which Encoded for a special cellular network and its data transmission details are hidden by the SFB and SFB, and then responsible for delivering the message to the appropriate target mailbox in the network. For illustration, Figure 11 shows a An example of a message table 6 3 0, there are two lines 6 5 0 and 6 5 2. Line 6 5 0 shows the number of a mailbox to which a message sent by SFB is sent. Line 6 5 2 shows one and one message The corresponding number of a mailbox to which the required processor routine is sent. For example, if a transmitting SFB wants to send a message to the mailbox MB X 1, the code in the CILB first negotiates with the transmitting table 6 30 to determine whether the message is first transmitted to a message associated with an intermediate processor routine. mailbox. According to Table 6 30, the message sent to mailbox MBX 1 should first be sent to the intermediate processor routine associated with mailbox MB Y 1 in mailbox MB Y 1 and then the message is transmitted according to its knowledge of the specific cell structure 3 . Intermediate processor routines are illustrated in more detail in Figures 12 and 13. Note that the use of transfer tables and intermediate processor routines can advantageously hide the details of a particular structure's data transfer from the send and receive SFB. For transmitting S F B, all that is needed is to send a message to a target mailbox, such as mailbox MBX1. The SFB associated with the mailbox MBX1 is a remote or local knowledge transfer table 6 30 and the mailbox M This paper size applies the Chinese National Standard (CNS) Α4 specification (210X297 mm) (Please read the precautions on the back first (Fill in this page again), 1T -29-518863 A7 B7 Printed by the Consumer Cooperatives of the Central Standards Bureau of the Ministry of Economic Affairs 5.

-30-518863 Printed by the Consumer Cooperatives of the Central Standards Bureau of the Ministry of Economic Affairs 5. Description of Invention (28). Intermediate processor functional block 7 0 8 handles communication with c c PU 7 0 4 and intermediate processor functional block 7 1 〇 facilitates communication with e 1 card 〇 2. When the Α-interface SF Β 6 0 2 wants to send a message to the β sc management software function gg block 7 0 0 'it sends — the message to a mailbox associated with the BTS management software function block 7 0 0, that is, Mailbox MBB2. Before the message is transmitted to the mailbox MBX2, the CP u on the E2 card 〇2 first discusses with a transmission table to determine whether the message is first transmitted to a mailbox related to the function of the intermediate processor (as when Purpose s F B is away from or when there are multiple examples of the same job). The transfer table 7 1 4 is typically stored in a read-and-write memory on a substrate, such as a hard disk, a shutter, and the like (in FIG. I 2 such as 7K of element 7 12). An example transfer table is shown in Table 7 1 4 in FIG. The transfer table 7 1 4 indicates that the message sent to a mailbox MB X 2 should be transmitted to the mailbox MBX 2 1 first, which is shown in FIG. 12 and is related to the intermediate processor function block 7 0 8. Therefore, the message will be sent to the mailbox MBX21. The message sent to the mailbox MBX21 preferably includes information about the ultimate purpose of the message, which is the number of the mailbox MBX2. Intermediate processor function block 708, which monitors the address associated with the if box MBX2 1, and then sends back the message from the mailbox MBX2 1 and forwards it to the intermediate processor function 10 and then negotiates with the transfer table 718 To determine how best to send the message just sent back from block 706 of F1F0. The transfer form 7 1 8 is best stored in the continuous storage device on the CCPU card 704 (as shown by element 7 17) ° This paper size is applicable to the Chinese National Standard (CNS) M specification (210 X 297 mm)-31-1 (Please read the notes on the back before filling in ·

Order line 518863 A7 B7 V. Description of the invention (29) Since the mailbox MB X 2 exists on the C C P U card 7 0 4, it is not necessary to enter it in the transfer form 7 1 8. As a result, the negotiation between the intermediate processor block 7 1 0 and the transfer table will not reveal the corresponding mailbox to which the message returned from the F I F 0 block 7 6 should be delivered. Intermediate processor functional block 7 1 0 will send the message returned from FI F0 block 7 6 directly to the same CPU / mailbox MBX2 in the same CPU / base using local data transmission returned by BSC management SFB 7 0 0 . In the opposite direction, the BSC management SFB700 can send a message to the mailbox MBX1 associated with the A interface S F B 6 0 2 by first negotiating with the transmission table, which will point the transmitted message to the mailbox MBX20. This message is then picked by the intermediate processor function 7 10 and delivered to the F I FO706 which will be returned by the intermediate processor function 708. By using the target mailbox MBX1 in the returned message, the intermediate processor function 7 0 8 then negotiates with the transmission table 7 1 4, which reveals that the message sent to the mailbox MB X 1 is for the intermediate processor function 7 0 8 is local, and the message is delivered locally to the mailbox MB X 1 by message transmission. The A-screen SFB 6 0 2 of the address of the monitoring mailbox MB X 1 is printed by the employee consumer cooperative of the Central Standards Bureau of the Ministry of Economic Affairs and then picks Start the message. Note that as long as the A interface S F B 6 0.0 and B S C management S F B 7 0 0 are connected, the format of the transmitted message and the address of the destination mailbox need not be changed in accordance with changes in cell structure. The internal details of data transmission in a special structure are processed by the intermediate processor blocks 70 8 and 7 1 0 through their associated transfer tables 7 1 4 and 7 1 8 and can also be processed by FIFO 706.

In Figure 12, although the BSC manages SFB and A interface SFB, this paper size is applicable to Chinese National Standard (CNS) A4 specification (210X 297 mm) 518863 Printed by A7 B7, Consumer Cooperative of the Central Standards Bureau of the Ministry of Economic Affairs 30) It is used to illustrate the construction of the independent architecture of the present invention. 'It should be noted that any SFB that can achieve communication through messaging can be implemented as such. Figure 13 illustrates the communication between a single BSC managing the SFB 800 and the B TS manager S F B 804, 806 and 808 implemented on three separate CC PU cards. Multiple examples of BTS manager work may exist in different CPs to handle different subgroups of BTS, thereby increasing the total number of BTS that can be managed by a single BSC. For example, BTS manager SFB804 can handle BTS1 to 6, BTS manager SFB806 can handle BTS7 to 12, and BTS manager SFB808 can handle BTS13 to 18. Note that each example of BTS manager operation can typically handle a limited number of B T S numbers. When the system capacity increases, the BTS is increased and the additional BTS manager SF B must also be increased to facilitate expansion. Although three B T S managers S F B are shown in FIG. 13 ′ Of course, a larger or smaller number can be provided according to the network field and capacity requirements. Since the independent BTS managers SFB804, 806, and 808 are constructed, they have no knowledge of each other, and they are all related to the same mailbox MBX6. In FIG. 13, BSC management, Of B 8 0 0 communicates with all B T S managers S F B, which can be distributed on multiple CP / substrates. It is important, however, that messages from BSC management SFB800 are delivered to the correct example, regardless of their network configuration. In the text of the above example, it is important that the message intended for B T S 5 is passed to the BTS manager SFB804 (which is implemented on CCPU2) regardless of where this B T S associated S F B is implemented in the network. ^ Zhang scale is applicable to China National Standard (CNS) Α4 specification (210X 297 mm) &quot;-a 33-(Please read the precautions on the back before filling this page)

Description of the invention (31) Read and read-‘Front note’ items and then fill in $ For example, consider the communication between BSC manager SFB800 and BTS pipe controller 806, which controls BTS8. Since the BTS manager S F Β 8 Ό 6 is far away from the card c C p u 1 implementing the B S C management block 8 0 0, an intermediate processor function is used to handle the details of the transmission of special structural data. To illustrate this point, the card C C P U 1 — BTS Manager Intermediate Processor Function Block 8 1 0 is provided. BTS Manager Intermediate Processor Function Block 8 10 makes it associated with a mailbox MBX2 2 'whose address is known in a transfer table 8 2 0. When B S C manages S F B 8 0 0 to send a message to B T S manager SFB806, it only sends a message to a mailbox associated with the work of the example BTS manager S F B 8 0 6. That is, the mailbox MBX6. Note that BSC does not need to know the details of any particular cell structure to transmit the message to the well-known address of mailbox MBX6. The Consumer Cooperative of the Central Standards Bureau of the Ministry of Economic Affairs printed the CPU associated with the card CCPU 1 and then negotiated with the transmission form, which revealed that the message transmitted to the mailbox MBX6 should be transmitted instead of the mailbox “3 义 22, which is related to 3D 3 The transmission intermediate processor function block 810 is related. As a result, the message required by the mailbox MBX6 is sent to the mailbox MB X 2 2.
