Abstract
Description
[0001] title
[0002] transport network control signaling technical field
[0003] The present invention relates to a method and apparatus in a mobile telephone network. In particular, the present invention relates to a method and apparatus for transport network layer TNL control signaling in a Universal Mobile Telephony System Terrestrial Radio Access Network (UTRAN). Background technique
[0004] The UMTS Terrestrial Radio Access Network (UTRAN) is a Radio Access Network (Radio Access Network RAN) of the third generation mobile network specified by the 3GPP standardization organization. exist Figure 2a The general protocol model of the UTRAN interface is shown in . The protocol model can be divided into two logically independent layers: Radio Network Layer (RNL) and Transport Network Layer (TNL), and is divided orthogonally into user plane and control plane, as in 3GPP TS25.401, 3GPP , TSG RAN: described further in the UTRAN overall description.
