SIST ETS 300 392-10-24 E2:2003 is the Slovenian standard adopted from ETS 300 392-10-24 Edition 2, published by ETSI for Terrestrial Trunked Radio (TETRA) Voice plus Data (V+D). It specifies the stage 1 user view of Call Retention (CRT), a supplementary service that assigns a Call Retention Value (CRV) so a TETRA call can be protected against pre-emption by lower-priority calls.
What does SIST ETS 300 392-10-24 E2:2003 specify?
SIST ETS 300 392-10-24 E2:2003 specifies SS-CRT for TETRA SwMIs. It covers how the service is provided, invoked, changed during a call, and how it behaves when it meets other supplementary services and ANFs.
The standard applies to circuit mode TETRA V+D tele-services and bearer services defined in ETS 300 392-2. It is not applicable to TETRA Short Data Service (SDS). Man Machine Interfaces and charging principles are outside its scope.
The document is organized into:
- Scope
- Normative references
- Definitions, symbols and abbreviations
- SS-CRT stage 1 specification, including description, procedures, interactions, inter-working considerations, and overall SDL
- Annex A, an informative bibliography
What are the key requirements of SIST ETS 300 392-10-24 E2:2003?
Service model and protection rule
SIST ETS 300 392-10-24 E2:2003 defines Call Retention (SS-CRT) as a way to protect calls from pre-emption. The core idea is simple: each call in the Switching and Management Infrastructure (SwMI) is assigned a CRV, and when resources are needed the call with the lowest CRV using those resources is pre-empted.
In practice, this means the network must be able to compare calls by protection level. If all calls have the same CRV, another selection rule may be used, such as oldest call or call type. The standard also notes that on networks without SS-CRT, all calls are treated as if they have the same CRV.
Provision, activation, and invocation
SIST ETS 300 392-10-24 E2:2003 provides SS-CRT on a per Individual TETRA Subscriber Identity (ITSI) or Group TETRA Subscriber Identity (GTSI) basis. Provision and withdrawal may be arranged with the service provider or made generally available.
One or more CRVs are allocated to the served user. If no CRV is allocated, the default is zero, which means no protection. The service must support at least two values: 0 for no protection and 3 for total protection, with intermediate values allowed.
Activation happens on provision and deactivation on withdrawal. Registration does not apply, and cancellation is not applicable. Interrogation, if supported, can be local, remote, or both, and can report whether the service is provided, the default CRV, the allowed value range, and the applicable basic service. That is the practical information a network or customer support team needs to verify the subscription profile.
Call setup, call changes, and exceptional cases
SIST ETS 300 392-10-24 E2:2003 allows SS-CRT to be invoked by the calling user or the called user in the initial call setup message. The CRV can also be changed during an active call, and the network stores the CRV for the lifetime of the call.
If both sides invoke SS-CRT for the same call, the higher requested CRV is used. If a call involves both calling-user and called-user CRVs, the SwMI passes the received value through and then sets the call to the highest value. For group calls, the called group may be assigned a group CRV before setup, and that value is not changed during the call.
If a request is rejected, the call continues with the default CRV. If the requested CRV is outside the allowed range, the infrastructure adjusts it to the nearest maximum value allowed for that user and continues the call. If SS-CRT cannot be invoked, the call is still allowed to proceed.
Interactions, forwarding, and interworking
SIST ETS 300 392-10-24 E2:2003 states that SS-CRT has no interaction with many other supplementary services, including SS-AP, SS-AOC, SS-AL, SS-AS, SS-BIC, SS-BOC, SS-CAD, SS-HOLD, SS-CR, SS-CW, SS-CLIP, SS-CLIR, SS-COLP, SS-DL, SS-DGNA, SS-IC, SS-LE, SS-LSC, SS-PC, SS-SNA, and SS-TPI.
Some services are allowed to carry SS-CRT through the new call. For SS-CCNR, SS-CCBS, SS-CFB, SS-CFNRy, SS-CFNRc, and SS-CFU, the forwarded or completed call keeps the same CRV behavior, and the forwarded-to user may request a higher protection level. For ANF-ISI-IC and ANF-ISI-GC, the call gets the highest CRV from the originating and terminating SwMIs, and limited ISI resources are pre-empted starting with the lowest CRV calls.
What terms does SIST ETS 300 392-10-24 E2:2003 define?
- Call Retention Value (CRV) - the value that sets the relative protection level of a call against pre-emption.
- protected call - a call that has been assigned a CRV.
- unprotected call - a call with no CRV, or with CRV equal to zero.
- priority call - a call assigned some level of priority by a PC or PPC value.
- served user - the user who requests SS-CRT.
- Switching and Management Infrastructure (SwMI) - the TETRA network equipment other than subscriber terminals, through which terminals communicate.
- Individual TETRA Subscriber Identity (ITSI) / Group TETRA Subscriber Identity (GTSI) - the identities used for subscription and service provision on an individual or group basis.
Who uses SIST ETS 300 392-10-24 E2:2003?
SIST ETS 300 392-10-24 E2:2003 is used by TETRA network operators, service providers, and SwMI implementers who need to define how calls are protected from pre-emption. It is also relevant to engineers working on call setup, priority handling, group calls, forwarding, and interworking in circuit-mode TETRA V+D networks.
In practice, buyers and quality managers use it when specifying supplementary-service behavior for TETRA systems, especially where priority traffic must be protected. Interoperability and test engineers use it to check that CRV handling is consistent across calling and called users, across forwarded calls, and across inter-SwMI connections.
What changed in SIST ETS 300 392-10-24 E2:2003 from the previous edition?
This is the second edition of the Call Retention standard. The document history shows a first edition in April 1996 and a second edition in April 2000.
The second edition states that it is based on the latest edition of ECMA-263. It also says that additions were made for TETRA-specific behavior, including group calls, and for user requirements and situations not addressed in ECMA-263.
Which standards are used with SIST ETS 300 392-10-24 E2:2003?
- ECMA-263 (1997) - provides the functional model and information flows for Call Priority Interruption and Call Priority Interruption Protection Supplementary Services, and forms the main basis for this edition.
- ITU-T Recommendation I.210 (1993) - gives the method used to describe telecommunication services and their three-stage structure.
- ITU-T Recommendation Z.100 (1993) - defines Specification and Description Language (SDL), used for the dynamic model in Figure 1.
- ETSI ETS 300 392-2 (1995) - defines the TETRA Air Interface and the basic services referenced by the scope.
- ETSI ETS 300 392-10-24 (1996) - the earlier Call Retention text referenced by the second edition.
What does the SIST ETS 300 392-10-24 E2:2003 document contain?
The document contains the stage 1 service description of SS-CRT, including provision, interrogation, invocation, exceptional behavior, and call-state rules. Clause 4.3 gives the interaction map with other supplementary services and ANFs, which is the part most implementers use when checking feature coexistence.
Figure 1 provides the overall SDL for SS-CRT, showing how the network handles requests, stores CRV during the call, and resets the value on disconnect. Annex A gives a short informative bibliography for related priority and pre-emption work.

1 Scope
This ETS specifies the supplementary service Call Retention SS-CRT which is applicable to various basic
services supported by TETRA SwMIs. Basic services are specified in ETS 300 392-2 [4].
SS-CRT is a supplementary service which applies either during call establishment or once call is
established to protect a call from pre-emption by another call of lower priority.
Supplementary service specifications are produced in three stages, according to the method described in
ITU-T Recommendation I.210 [2]. The present document contains the stage 1 specifications of SS-CRT.
The stage 1 descriptions specify the supplementary services as seen by users of networks.
This ETS is applicable to circuit mode TETRA V+D tele-services and bearer services. This ETS is not
applicable to TETRA Short Data Service (SDS).
Man Machine Interfaces and charging principles are outside the scope of this ETS.
This second edition of this ETS is based on the latest edition of ECMA-263 [1]. The first edition of this ETS
was drafted at a time where no published text of ECMA-263 [1] existed. Additions to ECMA-263 [1] have
been made to take into account particular TETRA specifics such as group calls and to include user
requirements and situations not addressed in ECMA-263 [1].
