Page 7ETS 300 946 (GSM 04.22 version 5.3.1): March 19981ScopeThis European Telecommunication Standard (ETS) specifies the Radio Link Protocol (RLP) for datatransmission over the GSM PLMN. RLP covers the Layer 2 functionality of the ISO OSI Reference Model(IS 7498). It is based on ideas contained in IS 3309, IS 4335 and IS 7809 (HDLC of ISO) as well as CCITTX.25 and Q.92x (LAP-B and LAP-D of CCITT, respectively.) RLP has been tailored to the special needs ofdigital radio transmission. RLP provides to its users the OSI Data Link Service (IS 8886).RLP is intended for use with non-transparent data-transfer. Protocol conversion may be provided for avariety of protocol configurations. Those foreseen immediately are:-Character-mode protocols using start-stop transmission (IA5);-X.25 LAP-B.For reasons of better presentation, material about protocol conversion has been placed within thoseSpecifications concerned with the relevant Terminal Adaptors, i.e. GSM 07.02 for the asynchronous caseand GSM 07.03 for the synchronous case. Care must be taken that that material also applies toInterworking Functions; see GSM 09.04 - 09.07.2Normative 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.

Page 9ETS 300 946 (GSM 04.22 version 5.3.1): March 1998backwards compatibility: RLP defines several backwards-compatible versions. That means that anewer version can interwork with an older one without changing the older one. This is realized by a fallback mechanism during XID exchange.command: An instruction represented in the RLP header, causing the receiving RLP entity to execute aspecific function.frame check sequence: A field of redundant information based on a cyclic code, used for error detection.I + S frame: An RLP frame that is used for user information transfer, carrying supervisory informationpiggyback.improper frame: An RLP frame having an FCS error or having a header the contents of which isinconsistent with this Specification.non-transparent: In PLMN data transmission, a configuration where at layer 2, protocol information of thefixed network is mapped on RLP elements, and vice versa.piggybacking: Means by which one and the same frame can carry both user information and RLP relatedsupervisory information.response: A reply represented in the RLP-header, by which the sending RLP entity reports back about itsstatus.RLP frame: A sequence of contiguous bits, representing an RLP procedural element.RLP header: That part of an RLP frame that encodes either a command or a response, located at thebeginning of the RLP frame.S frame: An RLP frame that contains supervisory information in the absence of user information.transparent: In PLMN data transmission, a configuration where at layer 2 (and also at the layers above)no protocol conversion takes place.U frame: An RLP frame that contains unnumbered protocol control information.3IntroductionThree versions of RLP are defined:-RLP version 0: single-link basic version;-RLP version 1: single-link extended version (e.g. extended by data compression);-RLP version 2: multi-link version.RLP uses one (single-link) or from 1 up to 4 (multi-link) physical links. However, the RLP multi-link versionis designed to be able to support up to 8 physical links. If, in the call setup signalling, either end indicatesthat it cannot support multilink operation, neither end shall require usage of RLP-versions higher than 1. Ifthe BC negotiation during call setup results in a possibility for multi-link operation during the call, both endsshall require and accept RLP version 2 only.If the BC negotiation during call setup results in maximum number of traffic channels = 1 TCH and UIMI =not required/not allowed or up to 1 TCH/F allowed/may be requested, this is interpreted as if at least oneend does not support multilink operation, and neither end shall require RLP version higher than 1.RLP makes use of an underlying FEC (Forward Error Correction) mechanism. For RLP to performadequately it is assumed that the basic radio channel together with FEC provides for a block error rate ofless than 10 %, where a block consists of 240 or 576 bits (Further study on the BLER for 576-bit blocks isneeded). Furthermore, it is assumed that in case of multi-link RLP the difference of the delay between allphysical links is less than timer T4.SIST ETS 300 946 E4:2003
Page 10ETS 300 946 (GSM 04.22 version 5.3.1): March 1998RLP frames are sent in strict alignment with the radio transmission. (For details, see GSM 04.21). RLPframes are of a
fixed size of 240 (TCH/F9.6 channel coding) or 576 bits (TCH/F14.4 channel coding).Whenever a frame is to be sent, the RLP entity has to provide the necessary protocol information to becontained in it. Provision is made for discontinuous transmission (DTX).RLP spans from the Mobile Station (MS) to the interworking function (IWF), located at the nearest MobileSwitching Centre (MSC), or beyond. Depending on the exact location of the IWF, handover of the MS mayresult in link-reset or even total loss of the connection.In the terminology of HDLC, RLP is used in a balanced configuration, employing asynchronous operation,i.e. either station has the right to set-up, reset, or disconnect a link at any time. Procedural means areprovided for to deal with contentious situations, should they ever occur.RLP is full-duplex in the sense that it allows for information to be transferred in both directionssimultaneously.4Frame structure4.1Basic frame structureAn RLP-frame has a fixed length of either 240 or 576 bits consisting of a header, an information field, andan FCS (frame check sequence) field. The size of the components depends on the the radio channel type,RLP version and on the RLP frame. As a benefit of using strict alignment with underlying radiotransmission there is no need for frame delimiters (like flags etc.) in RLP. In consequence, there is no "bit-stuffing" necessary in order to achieve code transparency. Frames cannot be aborted while beingtransmitted.a) 240 bit frame sizeHeaderInformationFCSversion 0 and 1, version 2 (U framesonly)16 bit200 bit24 bitversion 2 (S and I+S frames only)24 bit192 bit24 bitb) 576 bit frame sizeHeaderInformationFCSversion 0, 1, and version 2 (U framesonly)16 bit536 bit24 bitversion 2 (S and I+S frames only)24 bit528 bit24 bitFigure 1: Frame structure4.2RLP headerAn RLP-header carries one of three types of control information, the first being unnumbered protocolcontrol information (U frames), the second being supervisory information (S frames), the third being userinformation carrying supervisory information piggybacked (I + S frames).SIST ETS 300 946 E4:2003

(The first bit transmittedcorresponds to the highest order term.)Implementation note: As a typical implementation, at the transmitter, the initial content of the register ofthe device computing the remainder of the division is pre-set to all ones and is then modified by division bythe generator polynomial (as described above) of the header and information field; the ones complementof the resulting remainder is transmitted as the 24 bit FCS sequence.At the receiver, the initial content of the register of the device computing the remainder is pre-set to allones. The final remainder after multiplication by x24 and then division (modulo 2) by the generatorpolynomial:x24 + x23 + x21 + x20 + x19 + x17 + x16 + x15 + x13 + x8 + x7 + x5 + x4 + x2 + 1of the serial incoming protected bits and the FCS will be:0 1 1 0 1 1 0 1 1 0 0 0 1 0 0 1 0 0 1 1 0 0 0 0 (x23 to x0, resp.)in the absence of transmission errors.5Elements and procedure5.1ModesAn RLP entity can be in one of two modes:-Asynchronous Balanced Mode (ABM)-Asynchronous Disconnected Mode (ADM)SIST ETS 300 946 E4:2003
Page 12ETS 300 946 (GSM 04.22 version 5.3.1): March 19985.1.1Asynchronous Balanced Mode (ABM)In ABM, which is the data link operational mode, either RLP entity may send commands at any time andmay initiate response frame transmission without receiving explicit permission to do so from the otherRLP-station. In ABM, frames shall be used for information field transfer and/or to indicate status changesin the RLP-station.5.1.2Asynchronous Disconnected Mode (ADM)In ADM, which is the data-link non-operational mode, the RLP entity shall be logically disconnected fromthe data link and shall, therefore, neither transmit nor accept numbered information frames.The RLP entity shall, however, be permitted to transmit and accept NULL, DM, UI, TEST and XID frames.Either RLP entity can issue an SABM command at any time, in order to terminate the ADM state. In thatcase, entrance of the ABM state will be indicated by a UA response from the opposite station. If theopposite station is not able to enter ABM, it will indicate this by a DM response. All commands other thanthose mentioned above and any unsolicited response will be ignored in ADM under all circumstances.5.2Header and parametersThe formats defined for the header are listed in figure 2.5.2.1Generally used bitsNOTES:C/R = COMMAND/RESPONSE BITP/F = POLL/FINAL BITX

For commands, the C/R bit shall be set to "1", forresponses it shall be set to "0".5.2.1.2Poll/Final bit, P/FThe P/F-bit is used to mark a special instance of command/response exchange. With a command, it iscalled the P-bit, with a response, it is called the F-bit. In any one direction, only one P/F-bit exchange maybe outstanding at any time. A response with the F-bit set to "1" shall always reflect the latest receive statusof the RLP entity.A P/F-bit exchange always starts with a command frame with the P-bit set to "1", which shall be answeredby a response frame with the F-bit set to "1" at the earliest response opportunity.No unsolicited F-bit = "1" is allowed. Such a frame shall be considered "improper" (see subclause 5.3.1).In ABM, the use of the P/F-bit with numbered information exchange is only allowed for checkpoint-recovery (see subclause 5.3.3).5.2.2Unnumbered frames, U5.2.2.1Set asynchronous balanced mode SABM (11100)The SABM encoding is used as a command only. It is always used with the P-bit set to "1".The SABM command is used either to initiate a link for numbered information transfer, i.e. to go fromADM to ABM, or to reset a link already established for numbered information transfer. With an SABMcommand, no information transfer is allowed.When issuing an SABM, the RLP entity has set to zero its internal variables for sending and receivingnumbered information. The other RLP entity, on receiving an SABM command, will either confirm it bysetting to zero its internal variables for sending and receiving numbered information and then issuing anUA (unnumbered acknowledgement) response or reject it by sending a DM (disconnected mode)response. In the former case, both entities have entered ABM and numbered information transfer maycommence. In the latter case, both entities are in ADM.When an SABM command is issued, a loss of information may occur. Appropriate action is in theresponsibility of the layers above.5.2.2.2Unnumbered Acknowledge. UA (00110)The UA encoding is used as a response only. It is used to positively acknowledge an SABM or DISCcommand. With the UA response, no information transfer is allowed.SIST ETS 300 946 E4:2003
Page 14ETS 300 946 (GSM 04.22 version 5.3.1): March 19985.2.2.3Disconnect, DISC (00010)The DISC encoding is used as a command only. It is used to disestablish a link, previously established fornumbered information transfer, i.e. to terminate ABM and go into ADM. With the DISC command, noinformation transfer is allowed.The other RLP-entity shall answer with a UA response before actioning the DISC command. When aDISC command is actioned, loss of information may occur. It is the responsibility of the layers above, toprovide for a "graceful" disconnect.5.2.2.4Disconnected Mode, DM (11000)The DM encoding is used as a response only. It is used by RLP entity to report that it is in ADM and, as ananswer to SABM, that it is (possibly temporary) unable to action a mode setting command. With the DMresponse, no information transfer is allowed.5.2.2.5Unnumbered Information, UI (00000)The information field is to be interpreted as unnumbered information. Unnumbered Information (UI)frames can be sent in both ADM and ABM. There is no acknowledgement of receipt of UI-frameswithin RLP.5.2.2.6Exchange Identification, XID (11101)The information field is to be interpreted as exchange identification. This frame is used to negotiate andrenegotiate parameters of RLP and layer 2 Relay function. XID frames can be sent in both ADM and ABM.The n
