This European Telecommunication Standard (ETS) identifies the Mobile-s ervices Switching Centre/Interworking Functions (MSC/IWFs) and require ments to support interworking between: a)PLMN and PSTN b)PLMN and ISDN It is not possible to treat ISDN and PSTN as one type of network, even when both ISDN and PSTN subscribers are served by the same exchange b ecause of the limitations of the PSTN subscribers access i.e. analogue connection without D-channel signalling. Within this ETS, the requirements for voice and non-voice (data) calls are considered separately.

Page 13ETS 300 976 (GSM 09.07 version 5.3.1): September 19974IntroductionGeneral Network Interworking Scenarios are described in GSM 09.01. Since the numbering plan for theISDN era (E.164) includes the numbering plan for the telephone network (E.163), it is not possible todistinguish by the number whether a given subscriber is a PSTN or ISDN subscriber. Further, in somecountries both PSTN and ISDN subscribers will be connected to the same exchange, so the onlydifference for this type of combined network will be in the nature of the customer access. In this documenta PSTN is considered to support only an analogue interface towards the subscriber. An ISDN shall beconsidered to support digital interface towards the subscriber. In addition, the ISDN is considered tosupport a standardized outband signalling protocol both between the subscriber and the network andwithin the network, i.e. DSS1 and ISUP, thus enabling the generation and transport of CompatibilityInformation for compatibility checking and terminal/function/service selection at the user-network interfaceas well as for MSC/IWF selection.There now exist networks which do not fall into either of these categories in that they provide for digitalconnectivity from subscriber to subscriber through the network. The subscribers have access to a widerange of services by a limited set of standard multi-purpose user network interfaces. However, thesenetworks do not support the standardized inter-exchange signalling protocol throughout, in that they aree.g. using TUP or National User Part (NUP). These types of network support 64 kbit/s connections, so inservice support are comparable to ISDN, however, the signalling system provided may not supporttransport of all Compatibility Information allowed for in the standardized ISDN signalling. This documentwill therefore identify interworking to PSTN and ISDN on the principle of the network characteristics asidentified in the previous paragraph. The aforementioned existing networks then constitute one particularcase in the ISDN interworking scenarios. These cases will be itemized when the implication of the variousdegrees of exhaustiveness of the Compatibility Information - delivered via the ISDN - used for deducting aGSM Basic Service needs to be set forth.When two dissimilar networks are required to interwork in order to support a communication between twosubscribers, one on each network, a number of Interworking Functions (MSC/IWFs) are required tosupport the communication. Some of these are related to the differences in signalling and are dealt with inGSM 09.03.Examples of other aspects of interworking are:a)the need or otherwise of echo control devices;b)the need or otherwise of modem pools and network-based rate adaptation.For the purposes of determining the required MSC/IWFs, it is necessary, however, to consider separatelyeach type of interworking (i.e. PLMN-ISDN and PLMN-PSTN) since, in the worst case, "PSTN" could referto an essentially analogue network with electromechanical switching not controlled by software andwithout common-channel signalling.Some facilities associated with alternate speech and data may not be available with version 1 of the MAP(GSM 09.02). Version 1 of the Mobile Application Part (MAP) does not support transfer between the HLRand VLR, and VLR and VMSC of multiple bearer capabilities. In addition, version 1 of the MAP does notsupport in-call modification and channel mode modification following an inter-MSC handover.5Not usedSIST ETS 300 976 E2:2003
