IN services
A large number of IN services can be implemented by
combining different building blocks:
Called number translation (at SCP)
Routing decision based on calling number,
time, date, called user busy, called user
alerting timeout, network load ...
Announcements (from IP) or user notification
(<= ISDN user signalling)
DTMF number reception (at IP) and analysis
(at SCP)
Customised charging (at exchanges)
IN service examples
Traditional IN services:
-
IN in mobile networks:
- Mobility management (HLR, VLR = databases)
- Security management (Authentication ...)
- Additional IN services in mobile networks =>
CAMEL (Customised Applications for Mobile
networks Enhanced Logic)

Public Land Mobile Network
(official name for mobile network)
Circuit-switched (CS) core network
(radio access network is not part of
this course)
Basic concepts and network elements
Mobility management in PLMN
Cellular concept
A cellular network contains a large number of cells with
a base station (BS) at the center of each cell to which
mobile stations (MS) are connected during a call.
BS
BS
BS
MS
BS
If a connected MS
(MS in call phase)
moves between two
cells, the call is not
dropped.
Instead, the network
performs a handover
(USA: handoff).
Mobility concept
A cellular network is divided into location areas (LA),
each containing a certain number of cells.
Location Area 1
Location
Area 2
Location Area 3
As long as an idle MS
(idle = switched on)
moves within a location
area, it can be reached
through paging.

The gateway MSC (located in the home

point in the mobile network when
AuC there is
an incoming call to the mobile user.

same in 2G (GSM) and 3G

used instead of GSM-MAPAuC
signalling.
