Call setup
For either a mobile-originated-call or a mobile-terminating-call the
following ten operations need to be performed.
✔ Interrogation (only for a mobile-terminating-call)
✔ Radio resource connection establishment
✔ Service request
✔ Authentication
✔ Ciphering mode setting
✔ IMEI number check
✔ TMSI allocation
✔ Call initiation
✔ Assignment of a traffic channel
✔ User alerting signaling
✔ Call accepted signaling
For the interrogation phase The initial address message comes outside the
GSM network.
The MSC/VLR initiates the call setup process by sending a message to the
appropriate BSC. The BSC sends a paging command message to the
appropriate BTS, finally BTS sends a paging request to the appropriate MS.
Service request
The service request occurs as soon as the MS has tuned to the new channel
assigned to it. The BTS sends back to the MS an UA frame that contains the
original paging response message. The paging response message is forwarded
to the BSC.
IMEI check
If the IMEI number is to be checked the MSC/VLR sends an identity
request message to the MS. This is sent to the BSC. The value of IMEI sent
by the mobile is checked against the equipment identity register database.
TMSI reallocation
If TMSI number is to be used it is sent to the MS from the MSC/VLR. The
value of TMSI number is stored in the SIM card and TMSI reallocation
complete message is sent to the MSC/VLR
The operation used to support the subscriber’s mobility within the GSM
network is known as location updating.
At any given time, the subscriber may receive or initiate a call since the
cellular system knows where the MS is located within the network.
There are three different types of location updating used in the GSM
system
✔ Normal Location Updating (Idle Mode)/Forced Registration
✔ ISMI Attach Location Updating
✔ Periodic Location Updating
The MS denotes the MS status in the VLR. The VLR will reject
incoming calls for the MS sending a voice message back to the
caller that the subscriber is currently unavailable.

In each layer, there exist protocol entities that are responsible for
the specific operations and procedures required to complete the
transfer of information between nodes.
Within the same layers in different nodes, there are peer entities
that communicate with each other through the use of a specific
protocol.
Connection management
CM sublayer contains functions for call control, call related
supplementary services, non call related supplementary services.
Call control
These procedures are used during call establishment.
Provides service using Mobile Network CC service access point
(MNCC-SAP )
Short message service entities known as short message control use short
message control protocol (SM-CP).
Supplementary services
SS handles services that are not related to a specific call.
Examples are call forwarding and call waiting.
Mobility management
MM sublayer performs 3 types of procedures that are related to mobility
support, subscriber confidentiality, and service of the CM entity.
Physical layer interfaces with the data link layer (Layer 2) through the
various control channels.
Additionally, the physical layer interfaces with other physical units such
as speech coders and terminal adaptors for the support of traffic
channels.
