Page 5ETS 300 539: February 1995 (GSM 03.46 version 4.1.2)ForewordThis European Telecommunication Standard (ETS) has been produced by the Special Mobile Group(SMG) Technical Committee (TC) of the European Telecommunications Standards Institute (ETSI).This ETS defines the technical realization of facsimile group 3 using non-transparent network support forthe European digital cellular telecommunications system (Phase 2). This ETS corresponds to GSMTechnical Specification (GSM-TS) GSM 03.46 version 4.1.2.The specification from which this ETS has been derived was originally based on CEPT documentation,hence the presentation of this ETS may not be entirely in accordance with the ETSI/PNE rules.Reference is made within this ETS to GSM-TSs (NOTE).NOTE:TC-SMG has produced documents which give the technical specifications for theimplementation of the European digital cellular telecommunications system.Historically, these documents have been identified as GSM Technical Specifications(GSM-TSs). These TSs may have subsequently become I-ETSs (Phase 1), or ETSs(Phase 2), whilst others may become ETSI Technical Reports (ETRs). GSM-TSs are,for editorial reasons, still referred to in current GSM ETSs.SIST ETS 300 539 E1:2003

Page 7ETS 300 539: February 1995 (GSM 03.46 version 4.1.2)0ScopeThis specification deals with the procedures allowing the technical realization of the real time end-to-endfacsimile group 3 service within the GSM PLMN using non-transparent network support according to thedefinition of the Teleservices 61 and 62 specified in GSM 02.03. Within this document particular attentionis given to Teleservice "Alternate speech/facsimile group 3" (Teleservice 61). However, the definitionsapply also to Teleservice "Automatic facsimile group 3" (Teleservice 62) with the exception of all actionsconcerned with the speech phase. Consequently, in the following descriptions the term "Teleservice"denotes both Teleservice 61 and Teleservice 62 as appropriate.Note:Some facilities associated with alternate speech/ facsimile group 3 may not beavailable with version 1 of MAP. In particular, the in-call modification procedurefollowing an inter MSC handover is not supported by this version. This imposes thelimitation that for all calls it will not be possible to change between speech andfacsimile following an inter MSC handover.1Normative referencesThis ETS incorporates by dated and undated reference, provisions from other publications. Thesenormative references are cited at the appropriate places in the text and the publications are listedhereafter.

F.160, is an internationaltelematic service for document transmission between two facsimile group 3 terminals.The service specifications are comprised of two parts:-the control procedures described in CCITT Rec. T.30 and-the document transmission coding described in CCITT Rec. T.4.The GSM facsimile group 3 Teleservice is intended to allow connections between facsimile group 3terminals using:-a GSM PLMN as stand-alone facility for mobile-to-mobile communication;-a GSM PLMN to have access to fixed networks PSTN and/or ISDN for mobile to/from fixed networkcommunication.For this Teleservice, the coding of the facsimile document is as per CCITT Rec. T.4 and the protocol asper CCITT Rec. T.30 both modified within the PLMN as detailed in this specification.SIST ETS 300 539 E1:2003



Page 9ETS 300 539: February 1995 (GSM 03.46 version 4.1.2)The interworking between different networks is based on CCITT Rec. X.300.The particular features of this Teleservice are:-it uses point-to-point communication;-the information transfer mode is circuit, duplex, synchronous;-the information transfer capability is alternate speech/ facsimile group 3 or facsimile group 3 only;-both mobile originated and mobile terminated calls are supported;-different end-to-end message speeds as per CCITT Rec T.30 may be used within the sameconnection to match the appropriate quality requirements;-use of the standard synchronous terminal adaptation function for non-transparent network support(as per GSM 07.03) within the MS is envisaged.4Network architectureThe network architecture applicable to this Teleservice is shown in Figure 1/03.46 below.

ÀÄÄÄÄÄÙ :Figure 2/03.46: Reference configurationsThe teleservice definitions in GSM 02.03 regard the facsimile group 3 terminal as a 2-wire analogueterminated equipment. In order to connect this to the MT2 a separate "fax adaptor" device is necessary.This configuration, shown in Figure 2a/03.46, has to be considered as the standard configuration, so thatall the existing facsimile group 3 terminals can be connected to the PLMN.An alternative realization would be to combine a facsimile group 3 terminal and the fax adaptor into aspecial "GSM facsimile machine", directly providing a digital output. Although such a terminal must appearto the MT2 as identical as the fax adaptor (i.e. with an identical interface and protocol), it would allow for asignificantly smaller and simpler facsimile machine. This configuration is shown in Figure 2d/03.46.In addition of course, it is always possible to realize an MT0, as per Figure 2f/03.46, where both thefacsimile and mobile termination functions are considered to be part of one integrated unit.The remaining configurations concern the use of an S interface and are considered as optionalconfigurations. Their use is for further study.The particular terminal adaptation functions used are those detailed in GSM 07.03 for non-transparentbearer capability. The interface to the MT2 used is according to CCITT Rec. V.24 with an option forsupport of CCITT Rec. V.25bis procedures for auto calling and auto answering.5.1Fax adaptor functionalityThe fax adaptor block, Figure 3/03.46, is intended to specifically complement the facsimile group 3terminal in order to be able to communicate over a GSM PLMN.SIST ETS 300 539 E1:2003

V.21, V.27ter, andV.29 as explained in CCITT Rec. T.4 and T.30;--handling of the signalling on the 2-wire path to the associated facsimile terminal, includingauto calling and auto answering functions where necessary (see clause 8).-a digital section, dealing with:--overall control of the adaptor;--monitoring and, where necessary, manipulating the CCITT Rec. T.30 protocol as detailed inthis specification;--connection to the MT using the interface according to CCITT Rec. V.24 as described inGSM 07.03;--buffering of facsimile data;--transcoding of the CCITT Rec. T.4 document content for transmission across the radiointerface as detailed in this specification;--where necessary, auto calling and auto answering functions according to CCITT Rec.V.25bis.5.2GSM facsimile machine functionalityThe special GSM facsimile machine shown in the MS configuration of Figure 2d/03.46 is similar to thedigital part of the fax adaptor, but without any of the analogue portions.It appears at the CCITT Rec. V.24 interface as identical as the fax adaptor, i.e. the MT2 needs to have noknowledge of the particular configuration used.SIST ETS 300 539 E1:2003

In this case the LAPB protocol and consequently the LAPB entities operating across this interfacemay be omitted. The protocol stack at the radio interface, however, is not affected by this consideration,i.e. RLP and L2RBOP always apply.The main point to be underlined is that all the protocol modules specific for this Teleservice are confined inthe fax adaptor functions at both the MT and MSC/IWF ends. This includes the layer 2 entity function forLAPB to be operated towards the standard TAF for synchronous non-transparent bearer capability.SIST ETS 300 539 E1:2003

|Figure 5/03.46: Protocol model for non-transparent support6.2Principles of the Facsimile Protocol AdaptationThe basic approach of this specification for facsimile group 3 is-to use the standard non-transparent network support (including e.g. standard MT) as basicallydefined in technical specifications GSM 07.01, GSM 07.03, and GSM 09.07,-to use the CCITT Rec. T.30 procedure at both ends of the connection between the fax adaptor andthe associated facsimile terminal and to pass the protocol elements according to CCITT Rec. T.30functionally unchanged wherever possible,-to use a specific protocol between both the fax adaptors across the radio interface and-to intervene within the fax adaptors in order to concatenate the applicable connection sections.Basically there are four problem areas:-support of facsimile group 3 with a digital connection type;-unpredictable delays on the radio interface due to actual RLP working conditions (ARQ);-the need to change the transmission rate "locally" in the fax adaptors both in the MS and in theMSC/IWF and to adapt it to the constant user rate of the TAF;-the inability to support some CCITT Rec. T.30 features.T
