In the present document, these frames are denoted "TRAU frames". Within these frames, both the speech/dataand the TRAU associated control signals are transferred.The Abis interface should be the same if the transcoder is positioned 1) at the MSC site of the BSS or if it is positioned2) at the BSC site of the BSS. In case 1), the BSC should be considered as transparent for 16 kbit/s channels.In case of 4,8 and 9,6 kbit/s channel coding when data is adapted to the 320 bit frames, a conversion function is requiredin addition to the conversion/rate adaption specified in GSM 08.20. This function constitutes the RAA. In case of 14,5kbit/s channel coding, no RAA rate adaption is required because V.110 framing is not used.The TRAU is considered a part of the BSC, and the signalling between the BSC and the TRAU (e.g. detection of callrelease, handover and transfer of O&M information) may be performed by using BSC internal signals. The signallingbetween the CCU and the TRAU, using TRAU frames as specified in the present document, is mandatory when the Abisinterface is applied.SIST EN 300 737 V6.0.1:2003

ETSIEN 300 737 V6.0.1 (1999-09)16(GSM 08.60 version 6.0.1 Release 1997)Data Bits (D-bits):Bits D1 . D260:Speech block transferred in the same order as output from the transcoder (see GSM 06.10).For Enhanced Full Rate Speech:The speech block is subdivided in five subsets. The order within a given subset is the same as output from the transcoder(see ETS 300 726, GSM 06.60). Three parity bits are added at the end of each sub-set.These parity bits are added to the bits of the subset, according to a degenerate (shortened) cyclic code using thegenerator polynomial:g(D) = D3
+ D + 1The encoding of the cyclic code is performed in a systematic form which means that, in GF(2), the polynomial:d(m)Dn + d(m+1)Dn-1 + .+ d(m + n-3)D3 + p(0)D2 + p(1)D + p(2)where p(0), p(1), p(2) are the parity bits, when divided by g(D), yields a remainder equal to:1 + D + D2For every CRC, the transmission order is p(0) first followed by p(1) and p(2) successively.Bit D1:spare (binary "1").Bits D2.D39:Indexes of the LSF submatrices.Bits D40.D42:CRC over bits D1 to D22, D25 to D27 and D29.Bits D43.D95:Indexes of the parameters of first sub-frame.Bits D96.D98:CRC over bits D43 to D52, D91 and D92.Bits D99.D148:Indexes of the parameters of second sub-frame.Bits D149.D151:CRC over bits D99 to D103, D105, D144 and D145.Bits D152.D204:Indexes of the parameters of third sub-frame.Bits D205.D207:CRC over bits D152 to D161, D200 and D201.Bits D208.D257:Indexes of the parameters of fourth sub-frame.Bits D258.D260:CRC over bits D208 to D212, D214, D253 and D254.Time Alignment Bits:Bits T1 .
