Definitions

  • the present invention relates generally to radiotelephone systems and, more particularly, to radiotelephone systems incorporating switches to perform communication interconnection between elements of the radiotelephone system.
  • Radiotelephone systems typically incorporate radiotelephone-specific switches which are used to interconnect base-stations in a particular coverage area with a public switched telephone network (PSTN). These radiotelephone-specific switches perform switching in response to signalling aspects related to the radiotelephone system.
  • the radiotelephone-specific switch may be the central location for storage of subscriber identification numbers, visiting identification numbers, billing information, etc.
  • the base-station When a radiotelephone call is initiated by a subscriber unit to a particular base-station in the radiotelephone system, the base-station will report the appropriate information back to the radiotelephone- specific switch so that switching to the appropriate destination can occur.
  • the radiotelephone-specific switch will perform user billing computations and storage, among other things.
  • radiotelephone-specific switches used in radiotelephone systems are difficult to build and even more difficult to maintain due to the complex combination of the switching elements coupled with the radiotelephone-specific aspects of signalling, control, etc.
  • the upper limit of capacity with respect to the radiotelephone-specific switch is usually the upper limit of capacity of the radiotelephone system for a given coverage area, a practical subscriber capacity problem occurs when radiotelephone-specific switches are employed.
  • the subscriber capacity for radiotelephone-specific switches may range anywhere from 500 subscribers up to at least 2500 subscribers, depending on the coverage area. In large coverage areas, the upper limit of subscriber capacity given by these radiotelephone-specific switches can be exceeded in a very short time.
  • radiotelephone-specific switch To alleviate this capacity and complexity problem in radiotelephone systems, elimination of the radiotelephone-specific switch is an ideal solution. Moreover, since land-line switches are abundant throughout the PSTN, there should never be a lack of switching power which might be used for both PSTN-type switching and radiotelephone-type switching. To eliminate the radiotelephone-specific switch, the signalling aspects related strictly to the radiotelephone system need to be removed from the radiotelephone-specific switch. This would allow for generic, PSTN-type switches to be used in lieu of the complex and capacity- limiting radiotelephone-specific switches. To assure a transparent change-over from the radiotelephone-specific switches to PSTN-type switches, changes to the architecture of the PSTN-type switch should be kept to a minimum.
  • the controller should not require additional protocol to perform the appropriate switching between the radiotelephone system and the PSTN.
  • the controller should have the capability to interface into a standard port of the PSTN-type switch without the switch knowing that it is being used for radiotelephone-type switching.
  • the controller, and consequently the radiotelephone system should have appropriate capability to leverage off of existing, classical PSTN-type switch functions.
  • a controller in a communication system processes control information related only to the radiotelephone system and accesses a switch to appropriately route voice information responsive to the processed control information.
  • FIG. 1 generally depicts the topology of a communication system incorporating a switching center having separate switching functions and radiotelephone signalling processing in accordance with the invention.
  • FIG. 2 generally illustrates in block diagram form the cellular applications platform (CAP) in accordance with the invention.
  • FIG. 3 generally depicts the steps the communication system of FIG.1 undergoes to connect a mobile initiating a call to a land- line destination v thin the PSTN in accordance with the invention.

  • MSC virtual mobile switching center 115
  • the MSC 115 formally a distinct and separate entity, has evolved to a network of base-station controllers 125, a home location register 103 (HLR), a cellular application platform 118 (CAP) with cellular specific functions, and a set of defined standard interfaces for network interconnect functionality, plus specially developed (and published) interfaces for local cellular control, and a comprehensive operations & maintenance center 106 (OMC) element for managing this virtual MSC configuration.
  • HLR home location register 103
  • CAP cellular application platform 118
  • OMC operations & maintenance center 106
  • the virtual MSC will connect to any manufacturers Class 5 central office switch that provides a minimum set of intelligent networking (IN) capabilities.
  • FIG. 1 assumes that the PSTN Class 5 switch services, over a combination of Primary Rate Interfaces
  • the CAP 118 would support a combination of cellular specific functions that could reside on a single or multiple platforms as a function of cost and performance.
  • some of the elements shown as distinct and separate entities i.e., vehicle location register (VLR), mobility management, customized services, etc., could co-reside on the same physical platform if cost and performance warrant this arrangement.
  • VLR vehicle location register
  • the CAP 118 could have the capability to address the small as well as the large market, ranging from 50 channels to 6,000 channels. Expansion beyond that figure is envisioned to be performed through networking of CAPs 118 via the B interface 116 of FIG.l.
  • the HLR 103 represents the subscriber data base for the cellular network and is the permanent record store for all subscribers in the network.
  • the HLR 103 contains information such as preferred carrier, allowed features, call screen list, etc. This platform is also extensible in that the number of subscribers ranges from a low end of approximately 5,000 subscribers to a high end of approximately 500,000 subscribers.
  • the HLR 103 interconnects to the network or Class 5 switch 112 via SS»7 to facilitate incoming calls, and connects to the CAP 118 via IS-41, or GSM MAP, to support validation.
  • the base-station controllers 121-124 (BSC's), which may be local or remote, all have subrate switching capability within the platform and primarily perform interfacing functions for the radiotelephone system 125 to the virtual MSC 115.
  • Each BSC supports a plurality of base transceiver stations 127-129 (BTS's), which are the actual radio channels used to communicate with a subscriber 132. Whenever possible, speech compression may be employed between the BTS and BSC to reduce line costs.
  • Handoff between BTS's under the same BSC are accomplished via the switching capability associated with the BSC 122-124. Handoffs between BSC are accomplished through the Class 5 switch 112, typically via nailed connections. Alternatively, direct connections between BSC's may be used to facilitate the inter-BSC handoff.
  • each BSC 121-124 is targeted in size to support up to 1,500 radio channels.
  • the transcoder function depicted in the master BSC 121 of the radiotelephone system 125, is present to allow voice compression for decreased back haul costs on cell site connections.
  • transcoding converts 13 Kbps GSM speech to 64 Kbps A-Law PCM.
  • the transcoding function also represents the termination point for the integrated services digital network (ISDN) interface with the Class 5 switch 112. If desired for cost purposes, switching may also be associated with the transcoder to facilitate inter-BSC connections.
  • the Class 5 switch 112 link 113 terminates on the transcoder in the master BSC 121, where D channel controllers are groomed and routed to the CAP 118.
  • Voice channels are then compressed, if necessary (most analog modulation schemes do not use compression today), and routed to the BSC's 122-124.
  • the BSC's 121-124 communicate with the CAP 118 through the A+ interface, which is an interface based on the GSM A interface.
  • the A+ interface must supplement to the A interface to support analog modulation schemes as well as future digital modulation schemes, and is a published interface. The physical realization of this interface would most likely result in the transcoder grooming this interface from the BSC voice terminations and routing it to the CAP 118 with the D channel terminations. All inter-switch communications shall be handled by yet another published interface. In the preferred embodiment, this interface would be the GSM MAP interface. In countries such as the United States, the interface would be IS-41 interface. Inter- switch handoffs, as well as call delivery, would be facilitated through this interface. Voice interconnect to other switches would be made through the Class 5 switch 112, with control riding in the same link.
  • the OMC 106 represents a common look and feel to the operator for the entire infrastructure, and provides a central location for operation and maintenance type monitoring and performance. Interconnection to the PSTN 100 will be via a X.25 link with a standardized CMISE protocol.
  • an interworking function 109 dWF is connected to the Class 5 switch 112 to facilitate bearer services such as FAX, modem services, etc.

  • the CCITT recommendations pertain to signalling in telephone networks for the purposes of call control and set-up as well as information exchange for peripheral services related to telephony.
  • Communications between the CAP 118, the HLR 103, and the Class 5 switch 112 are covered under several component parts of SS7, while the voice signalling for SS7 trunks between Class 5 switches and between Class 5 and Class 4 switches are covered under a slightly different grouping of component capabilities.
  • the CAP 118/HLR 103/Class 5 switch 112 communications requires the message transfer part (MTP), signalling connection control part (SCCP), combined with transaction capabilities procedures (TCAP) to support query and response type messages (800 like services) between network elements.
  • MTP message transfer part
  • SCCP signalling connection control part
  • TCAP transaction capabilities procedures
  • the voice communication between the switches require the MTP and either the telephone user part (TUP, international only), or the integrated services digital network user part (ISUP).
  • the B interface 116 comprises the inter-MSC IS-41 call sequence functionality for inter-MSC functions, e.g., registration, validation, handoff, updates, etc., plus the voice grade trunking (SS7 preferably) to deliver the calls to another Class 5 switch that hosts the targeted MSC.
  • the B interface 116 used in the preferred embodiment provides these functional capabilities under the GSM mobile application part (804 and 808). Again, it is desirable that the inter-switch voice call delivery be the SS7 trunking.

Abstract

Un contrôleur (118) commande les fonctions se rapportant spécifiquement à la signalisation radiotéléphonique dans un système de communication. Le contrôleur (118) est physiquement séparé d'un commutateur (112) qui effectue tous les acheminements nécessaires de données vocales de système radiotéléphonique en système radiotéléphonique, et du système radiotéléphonique vers un système de réseau téléphonique commuté public (RTPC, 100). Le contrôleur (118) se connecte avec le commutateur (112) par l'intermédiaire d'une connexion du type RSDN, l'accès au commutateur (112) se faisant essentiellement de manière transparente. Cet accès transparent permet d'utiliser des commutateurs communs et génériques (des commutateurs de catégorie 5, notamment), présentant des caractéristiques d'utilisation prédéterminées telles que l'appel en attente, les conférences à trois etc. Des utilisateurs du système radiotéléphonique (125) peuvent accéder aux caractéristiques prédéterminées du commutateur (112) et les utiliser, comme requis, grâce au traitement de signalisation radiotéléphonique effectué par le contrôleur (118).
