GSM was originally developed to serve as the panEuropean cellular service and promised a wide range of
network services through the use of ISDN.
GSM's success has exceeded the expectations of virtually
everyone, and it is now the world's most popular
standard for new cellular radio and personal
communications equipment throughout the world.
It is predicted that by the year 2000, there will be
between 20 and 150 million GSM subscribers worldwide.
Recently, GSM has changed its name to the Global
System for Mobile Communications for marketing
reasons. The setting of standards for GSM is currently
under the aegis of the European Technical Standards
Institute (ETSI).

The HLR provides data needed to route calls to all MS-SIMs home
based in its MSC area, even when they are roaming out of area or
in other GSM networks.
The HLR provides the current location data needed to support
searching for and paging the MS-SIM for incoming calls,
wherever the MS-SIM may be.
The HLR is responsible for storage and provision of SIM
authentication and encryption parameters needed by the MSC
where the MS-SIM is operating. It obtains these parameters from
the AUC.
The HLR maintains records of which supplementary services each
user has subscribed to and provides permission control in
granting access to these services.
Both the HLR and the VLR can be implemented in the same
equipment in an MSC (collocated).
A PLMN may contain one or several HLRs.

Abis Interface

n
All the data, both signaling and user data, move between
the base station (the BTS part) and the BSC on the Abis
interface.
The Abis is implemented when the BTS and BSC are
located at different sites. If both are positioned at the
same location, even in the same cabinet or rack, different
solutions are possible, depending on the manufacturer.
Due to its late and initially fragmented standardization,
the Abis interface appeared in a variety of different
interpretations and implementations. This led to
incompatibilities among network components from
different manufacturers. So, if network operators decided
to buy a BSC from one supplier, they had little choice but
to buy BTSs from the same supplier
