4.1 GSM solution
Inter-BSC handovers in GSM are described in ref. [1]. The 2G systems have been optimised to minimize the interruption of speech during handovers. In DL the standards allow bi-casting from the MSC. In UL this is achieved by fast radio resynchronisation by the UE. Typical values are in the range of 60 to 120 ms in UL.

5.2 Packet loss
Frame loss can already occur over the radio. Therefore when relocation occurs, any frame loss happens in addition to the frames lost over the radio. Therefore frame loss should be minimised. As a reference, in CS wireless speech, the FER must not be greater than 1%. The packet loss should be similar to what is achieved...

7d3783c93dcb97023753560f1c6e0f1f
25.936
6.1.1 General
The idea of Solution 1 is to reuse the release 99 Data forwarding mechanism also for real time services requiring seamless Relocation of SRNS. Seamless Relocation of SRNS means that the interruptions to the data stream flow are minimised and are basically unnoticeable by the users. The basic principle of SRNC duplicati...

6.1.2 The main steps of Relocation for data forwarding
[Note: Since for the solution 1 the procedures and mechanisms of performing Relocation of SRNS for all RABs from PS domain are the same, both the handling of lossless and Seamless RABs during Relocation of SRNS are described in this chapter.]

6.1.2.1 Preparation of Relocation of SRNS and Resource allocation
In this phase the UTRAN reserves resources for the relocation. Specifically for Solution 1, it is assumed that lossless and seamless existing RABs are set to be "subject to data forwarding" in Relocation Command. At the end of the preparation phase source RNC should: - for lossless RABs; stop processing DL GTP-PDUs dat...

In this phase, the DL GTP tunnel is updated between the SGSN and the GGSN so that the DL flow can use the new route. The mechanism shown assumes that the DL GTP port used for a given RAB in target RNC is the same for all arriving GTP-PDUs regardless of their arrival route. Only effect to the UTRAN may be the slightly e...

6.1.5 Summary: solution 1
This solution is based on making some procedure enhancements to the R99 mechanisms. During an interim state, the processing of the real time data is done at the source RNC so that the source RNC both sends the traffic to the UE, and forwards it to the target RNC. This solution also assumes that considering the nature o...

7d3783c93dcb97023753560f1c6e0f1f
25.936
6.2.1 General
The Core Network bi-casting mechanism handles real-time data from the GGSN/SGSN based on the model from GSM and the CS domain in UMTS R99. The principle is that the packet anchor is at the GGSN/SGSN which acts as the equivalent of the three-party bridge in the CS domain MSC. During the relocation, real-time downlink N-...

6.2.2.1 Preparation
In this phase the UTRAN reserves resources for the relocation. Then the source SGSN and source RNC are informed when the target RNC is ready. The GGSN is also instructed to start bi-casting downlink N-PDUs as part of the Relocation preparation process. As an implementation choice in the SGSN, this can happen in paralle...

25.936
6.2.2.2 Bi-casting of DL flow and switching of UL flow
In this phase, DL traffic is bi-casted from the GGSN to the target RNC (as well as to the source RNC). Also at this point in both the hard handover and SRNS relocation cases, the UE sends UL traffic to the target RNC and UL traffic needs to be switched to the target SGSN and GGSN, using the new route. Figure 14: Contro...

6.2.2.3 Completion
This is the completion of the signalling. Also, the GGSN is instructed to stop bi-casting downlink N-PDUs. At this stage, the relocation has effectively already been completed. Note that SGSN2 informs SGSN1 that the relocation is complete once all of the GGSNs involved have stopped the bi-casting. Then it informs SGSN1...

6.2.3 Relocation involving only one SGSN
In the case that the relocation involves only one SGSN, the flow of N-PDUs across the Gn interface does not need to be changed. Indeed, the tunnel switching point in the SGSN can serve as the anchor for the tunnel instead of the GGSN as proposed above. Figure 19: Packet flows during relocation with only one SGSN invol...

Solution 2 does not require any new procedures or messages to be introduced to any RAN 3 specification.

Therefore a new value for that Information Element is needed to indicate “s...

6.2 Principles of the Facsimile Protocol Adaptation
The basic approach of the present document for facsimile group 3 is: ‑ to use the standard non‑transparent network support (including e.g. standard MT) as basically defined in technical specifications GSM 07.01, GSM 07.03, and GSM 09.07; ‑ to use the CCITT Recommendation T.30 procedure at both ends of the connection be...

6.2.1 Fax Adaptor Protocol
To cater for the appropriate facsimile transmission some protocol elements and their use (procedure) are defined. These protocol elements are exchanged between both fax adaptors. They are defined as follows and are structured as outlined in annex A: ‑ BCS element: The BCS element is used to relay CCITT Recommendation T...

6.2.2 Interactions and interventions within the fax adaptors
Interactions and interventions within the fax adaptors are necessary: ‑ where protocol elements cannot be passed due to the differences between the PSTN and the GSM system; ‑ where the content of protocol elements has to be aligned with the capabilities of the supporting GSM PLMN; ‑ where BCS commands are repeated by t...

6.2.3 Training Check
The training check sequence (TCF) as per CCITT Recommendation T.30 is exchanged only locally between the fax adaptor and the associated facsimile terminal. However, the subsequent exchange of CFR or FTT is, in principle, end‑to‑end. The training check sequence sent by the fax adaptor must have the minimum duration perm...

6.2.4 Mobile to mobile calls
In this section, an interim solution is described. The final solution depends on the progress in the ITU‑T and is expected by the end of 1995. To get the information about the nature of the call, a GSM specific country code inside the NSF frame is used to identify an inter MSC call. The GSM country code (refer to CCITT...

6.2.5.1 Message Transcoding
To save transmission capacity at the radio interface the content of the document shall be transcoded. This applies only, when using the normal facsimile data transfer, i.e. not with the error correction mode. The facsimile coded data received by the fax adaptor from the facsimile terminal is transcoded and transmitted ...

6.2.5.2 Generation of the normal data element
The normal facsimile coded data which have been transcoded and buffered as described in the present document is segmented for transmission across the radio interface into blocks of max. 936 bits (afterwards constituting a sequence of max. 5 L2RBOP PDUs). Each such block is contained in the information field of a normal...

6.2.5.3 Generation of the error correction data element
The content of a FCD frame, if received correctly, is stored by the fax adaptor. Each such block is contained in the information field of a error correction data element of the FA protocol (see annex A). The facsimile message transfer is finalized by a trailing end of data element which allows the transmitting fax adap...
