Describe the locations for the CCU Describe the four different types of channel codec services Understand where the options are for locating the PCU Discuss the role of the GGSN and SGSN Understand the way that the HLR and VLR interact in the GPRS network.
No major changes occur inside the BSS. However, two functions must be inserted inside BSS
!
Located in the Base Transceiver System (BTS) without any hardware impact. impact. Can be located at the Network Service Subsystem (NSS) side or at the Base Station Controller (BSC) side or it can be located in the PCU Support Node (PCUSN), which resides between the BSC an the SGSN.
Main function is to complement the BSCs (2G & 3G standards) with the PCU capability.
Typically connected to the BSC with Agprs interface and to the SGSN with Gb interface PCUSN can be connected to a single BSC or multiple BSCs.
CCU functions:
!
The channel-coding functions (such as forward error correction and interleaving on the air interface) Radio channel measurements (quality of receive signal) Radio management
! !
CCU is located in the BTS Can be software-only upgrades or hardware and software upgrades, depending on the coding being performed.
The initial releases of the CCUs support four different coding schemes: CS-1: offers a data rate between 8 Kbps to 64 Kbps CS-2: 12 Kbps to 96 Kbps CS-3: 14.4 Kbps to 96+ Kbps CS-4: 20 Kbps to 115+ Kbps

Tracks the mobile station location by routing areas or cell location Keeps track of the connected Gateway GPRS Support Node (GGSN) (IP, intranets, the Internet, X.25) Maintains a log of the active Packet Data Protocol(PDP) contexts SGPRS attach
The GGSN serves as the interconnect point between the SGSN and the external packet data network. Tunneling

Like IP routing
Is an existing GSM network element Responsible for keeping track of the mobiles location in the network For GPRS services:
!
Stored authentication parameters Location area identity (LAI) Routing area identity Mobile Station Roaming Number (MSRN) TMSI or P_TMSI
! !
A GPRS network will likely be connected to the Internet (IPv4) DHCP server is installed The address resolution between IP address and GSM address is performed by the GGSN, using the appropriate PDP context. Domain Name Server can be used to map between external IP addresses and hostname

Collects billing records from the GPRS nodes Aggregates several billing records produced during a PDP session into a single GPRS accounting record. (Network Accounting Record, NAR) Provides access to the GPRS accounting records to the customer billing system
