13. Additional Protocols: Signaling System 7
Signaling System 7 (SS7) is an international
telecommunications standard that denes how network
elements in a public switched telephone network (PSTN)
exchange information over a digital signaling network.
Nodes in an SS7 network are called signaling points.
Three kinds of network points signaling points: Service
Switching Points (SSPs), Signal Transfer Points (STPs),
and Service Control Points (SCPs).
Trac on the SS7 network is routed by packet switches
called STPs.

17. * Interfacing the PSTN, the MSC performs call signalling
functions using the Telephone User Part (TUP), or interfacing
the ISDN, the ISDN User Part (ISUP).
* Between the MSC and the BSC, the Base Station System
Management Application Part (BSSMAP) is used.
The Direct Transfer Application Part (DTAP) is used to send
messages between the MSC and the mobile (MS). MAP is
used between the MSC and the VLR, EIR, and HLR.

25. The physical channel is the medium over which the
information is carried.
The logical channel consists of the information carried over the
physical channels.

26. A Physical Channel (a TS, dened by a xed position (0 to 7) on a given TDMA frame) may be used to
broadcast messages containing dierent kinds of information:
trac messages for speech and data,
signaling messages for dierent procedures and supplementary services,
synchronization messages for temporal and logical synchronization between the mobile stations and the
BTS,
measurements messages for uplink report of the downlink measurements,
control messages to manage the access to the network.
All these kinds of messages are classied in Logical Channels. Depending on the quantity of information to
transmit and on their consistency,
several logical channels may be mapped onto one physical channel, in order to use its successive Time
Slots as much as possible (optimization of the resources number by maximizing the occupancy duration of
each).
As a conclusion: Physical Channel : information container Logical Channel : specication of the
information global content
