TECHNICAL SEMINAR PRESENTATION MIGRATION OF GSM TO GPRS Presented by NISHITH RANJAN SAHOO Roll no: EI200117284 Under the Guidanceof Dr. Partha S. Mallik EI200117284
MIGRATION OF GSM TO GPRS INTRODUCTION • GPRS (General Packet Radio Service) • Reuse the existing GSM infrastructure • Introduce packet-switched routing functionality • Better data transfer rates • Low cost and connectivity-oriented • Migration Path to 3G Networks • “Always on” / always connected EI200117284
MIGRATION OF GSM TO GPRS NEED FOR GPRS • Existing Cellular networks have problems: • Data Rates too slow – about 9.6 kbps • Connections setup too long & complicated • Proves expensive for bursty traffic utilization • Inefficient resource utilization for bursty traffic • No efficient method for packet transfers EI200117284
MIGRATION OF GSM TO GPRS PACKET-SWITCHED TECHNIQUEVS. CIRCUIT-SWITCHED • In circuit-switching, resources (e.g. a channel) are allocated to user for duration of connection • Inefficient use of resources • User pays for the whole connection • High QoS: channel maintains real-time connection • In packet-switching, resources are allocated to user only for the time it takes to send each packet • A channel can serve many users • User pays by the packet • Ideal for bursty data connections EI200117284
MIGRATION OF GSM TO GPRS GPRS ARCHITECTURE • GPRS = GSM + packet switching. GPRS has the features of a real data network. • Speeds up to 190 kbps (theoretical maximum). • No dial-up modems needed, but direct • connections. • Billing based on sended/received bits, no • telephone ticks. • All applications available (www, e-mail, ftp,..). • The setup time is negligible – less than a second. EI200117284
MIGRATION OF GSM TO GPRS GPRS ARCHITECTURE • How is the high speed of GPRS realized? • Dynamic assignment of bursts to a user. In GSM 1 burst per user. • In GPRS theoretical maximum of 8 bursts per user. Sync: 26 bits 000 Data: 57 bits 1 1 000 Data: 57 bits EI200117284
MIGRATION OF GSM TO GPRS MIGRATION FROM GSM TO GPRS The migration path from GSM to GPRS requires: • Additional packet switching nodes (routers between the base stations and the mobile switch center). • The existing GSM nodes to be upgraded with GPRS functionality. • Commercial data services to be provided for this a GPRS operator needs to deploy other elements like Access servers and Firewalls.

MIGRATION OF GSM TO GPRS GPRS ENVIRONMENT EI200117284
MIGRATION OF GSM TO GPRS GPRS ARCHITECTURE : MOBILE STATION • GPRS MS includes two components: • MT (Mobile Terminal). Typically a handset used to access the radio interface. • TE (Terminal Equipment). Typically a laptop or a Personal Digital Assistant (PDA). • Three types of MS: • Class-A: Could be attached to both GPRS and other GSM services, and the MS supports simultaneous operation of GPRS and other GSM services. • Class-B: Could be attached to both GPRS and other GSM services, but the MS can only operate one set of services at a time. • Class-C: Could be exclusively attached to one service type at a given time.

MIGRATION OF GSM TO GPRS SGSN – SERVING GPRS SUPPORT NODE • At the same hierarchical level as the MSC. • Transfers data packets between mobile stations and GGSNs. • Keeps track of the individual MSs’ location and performs security functions and access control. • Detects and registers new GPRS mobile stations located in its service area • Participates into routing, as well as mobility management functions. EI200117284
MIGRATION OF GSM TO GPRS GGSN – GATEWAY GPRS SUPPORT NODE • Provides inter-working between PLMN and external packet-switched networks. • Converts the GPRS packets from SGSN into the appropriate packet data protocol format (e.g., IP or X.25) and sends out on the corresponding packet data network. • Participates into the mobility management. • Maintains the location information of the mobile stations that are using the data protocols provided by that GGSN. • Collects charging information for billing purpose. EI200117284
MIGRATION OF GSM TO GPRS GPRS ARCHITECTURE:BACKBONE NETWORK • Tunnels of data and signaling messages between GPRS support nodes.Protocol architecture based on the Internet Protocol (IP). • GTP (GPRS Tunneling Protocol) used to tunnel user data and signaling between GPRS Support Nodes. • Two kinds of GPRS backbone Network: • Intra-PLMN backbone network: The IP network interconnecting GSNs within the same PLMN. • Inter-PLMN backbone network: The IP network interconnecting GSNs and intra-PLMN backbone networks in different PLMNs. • Border Gateway handles the packet transfer between GPRS PLMNs.

MIGRATION OF GSM TO GPRS MOBILITY MANAGEMENT • Mobility management is the means by which GPRS keeps track of a mobile subscriber location while connected to the Network. • Main concepts : • GPRS mobility management states • GPRS network access. • Attachment. • Location management • Packet Data protocol PDP context • Detachment EI200117284

MIGRATION OF GSM TO GPRS CONCLUSION • The GPRS should cost uses less than circuit-switched services since communication channels are being used on a shared basis and also the packets are need-based rather than dedicated only to one user. • The next stepping stone would be moving towards 3G by implementing EDGE (Enhanced Data rates for Global Evolution), • The GPRS is the key transition phase and is a fundamental requirement for Third Generation Mobile Communications.
