4.4.18 Interface between SMLC and MSC (Ls interface)
This interface is used by the MSC when an SMLC is NSS based to request either the initiation of location procedures or the retrieval of location assistance data for a particular target MS in the coverage area served by the SMLC. The interface is also used to transfer LCS measurement and O&M information between an SMLC ...

4.4.22 Interface between LCS Client and GMLC (Le interface)
This interface is used by a client of the Location Services (LCS) to request location information from a GMLC for certain target MSs. The interface is used by the GMLC to provide location information to an LCS client. This interface is external to a PLMN and is not defined within GSM.

4.5 Splitting of the data storage
The data attached to each MS management, operation and location are stored in the Location Registers. Some data are duplicated in the HLR and in the VLR, but others may be stored only in one place. The data associated with any client that uses a particular GMLC to access location services is stored in the GMLC. A detai...

5.1 Overload control
There is a requirement for an overload/congestion control for all entities of the Public Land Mobile Network and the underlying Signalling System No. 7.

5.1.1 Overload control for MSC (outside MAP)
For the entity MSC the following two procedures (outside MAP) may be applied to control the processor load: - ISDN CCITT Recommendation Q.764 (Automatic Congestion Control), applicable to reduce the mobile terminating traffic; - BSSAP GSM 08.08 (A-interface Flow Control), applicable to reduce the mobile originating tra...

5.1.2 Overload control for MAP entities
For all MAP entities, especially the HLR, the following overload control method is applied: If overload of a MAP entity is detected requests for certain MAP operations (see tables 5.1/1, 5.1/2, 5.1/3 and 5.1/4) may be ignored by the responder. The decision as to which MAP Operations may be ignored is made by the MAP se...

5.2.1 General
The present document of the Mobile Application Part is designed in such a way that an implementation which conforms to it can also conform to the Mobile Application Part operational version 1 specifications, except on the MSC-VLR interface. A version negotiation mechanism based on the use of an application-context-name...

5.2.2 Strategy for selecting the Application Context (AC) version
A method should be used to minimize the number of protocol fall-backs which would occur sometimes if the highest supported AC-Name were always the one selected by GSM entities when initiating a dialogue. The following method is an example which can be used mainly at transitory phase stage when the network is one of mix...

5.2.2.1 Proposed method
A table (table 1) may be set up by administrative action to define the highest application context (AC) version supported by each destination; a destination may be another node within the same or a different PLMN, or another PLMN considered as a single entity. The destination may be defined by an E.164 number or an E.2...

5.2.2.2 Managing the version look-up table
WHEN it receives a MAP-OPEN ind the MAP-User determines the originating entity number either using the originating address parameter or the originating reference parameter or retrieving it from the subscriber data using the IMSI or the MSISDN. IF the entity number is known THEN It updates (if required) the associated l...

5.2.2.3 Optimizing the method
A table look-up may be avoided in some cases if both the HLR and the VLR or both the HLR and the SGSN store for each subscriber the version of the AC-name used at location updating. Then: - for procedures which make use of the same application-context, the same AC-name (thus the same version) can be selected (without a...

6.1 Use of SCCP
The Mobile Application Part makes use of the services offered by the Signalling Connection Control Part of signalling System No. 7. CCITT Blue Book or ITU-T (03/93) Recommendations Q.711 to Q.716 should be consulted for the full specification of SCCP. In North America (World Zone 1) the national version of SCCP is used...

6.1.2 Sub-System Number (SSN)
The Application Entities (AEs) defined for MAP consist of several Application Service Elements (ASEs) and are addressed by sub-system numbers (SSNs). The SSN for MAP are specified in GSM 03.03 [17]. When the SGSN emulates MSC behavior for processing messages (MAP-MO-FORWARD-SHORT-MESSAGE, MAP_CHECK_IMEI) towards entiti...

Within the GSM System there will be a need to communicate between entities within the same PLMN and in different PLMNs. Using the Mobile Application Part (MAP) for this function implies the use of Transaction Capabilities (TC) and the Signalling Connection Control Part (SCCP) of CCITT Signalling System No. 7.
