12 Cell Broadcast
12.1 Overview
Cell broadcast is a specific service of the GSM system, broadcast information to all mobile stations in a specific area periodically. The MS supporting this service can monitor this broadcast information continuously and this information can be displayed on the MS terminals. The typical examples of cell broadcast are to broadcast traffic information and weather forecast. Short Message Service Cell Broadcast (SMSCB) allows short message to be broadcast to all mobile stations in certain areas. These areas may be one or several cells, even the entire PLMN area. The short message from Cell Broadcast Centre (CBC) is sent to BSC, and BSC will manage and dispatch the message, and send the received message to BTS, which can control the flow of short message broadcast. The architecture of cell broadcast system is as shown in Figure 12-1.
