Protocol Stacks
Communication between the UE, RNC and circuit switched core network (CN) makes use of
Uu interface protocol stack Iub interface protocol stack Iu-CS interface protocol stack A interface protocol stack BTS
Uu Iub Iu.c s A Multimedia Gateway
RNC
3G MSC
Protocol stacks include both user and control planes The control plane of one protocol stack may make use of the user plane of another protocol stack e.g. RRC messages which form the control plane of the radio interface protocol are communicated to and from the BTS using the user plane of the Iub protocol stack
