4.1.0 General
The Bearer Connection Layer consists of a Bearer Connection Manager and instances of one of four possible data handlers (COM_DH, AM_DH, NUM_DH and TM_DH) with their associated Service Access Points (SAPs). The Control Plane of each UE consists of an AM_DH for the UE Specific Signalling connection, a COM_DH for managing...

4.1.1 Bearer Connection Manager (BCnM)
The Bearer Connection Manager (BCnM) provides bearer connection management services to the Adaptation Layer via the CBCn-SAP. This includes the creation and removal of a particular connection, and the setting of its QoS parameters. Bearer Connection Manager STATUS-SAP BCt-DATA- SAP AM-SAP CBCn- SAP Adaptation Layer - C...

4.1.2 Acknowledged Mode Data Handler (AM_DH)
The Acknowledged Mode Data Handler shall be created when a reliable delivery message transport is required e.g. for packet data and signalling connections. In the control plane, it is used to transport UE Specific Signalling (UESS) messages from the Adaptation Layer (AL). Note that the SIG-SAP as defined in the Adaptat...
