BASE STATION SUBSYSTEM (BSS)
The Base Station Subsystem of a GSM network contains the Base Trans
(BTS), the Base Station Controller (BSC), and the Transcoder Controller ( of GSM network components is given bellow.
GSM Network architecture Base Transceiver Station (BTS)
A BTS acts as the interface between MS’s (Mobile Station) and the
providing radio coverage functions from their antennae. The channel co
the communication between BTS and MS will be described in section 4.2. Base Station Controller (BSC)
The BSC controls a major part of the radio network. Its most important ta
ensure the highest possible utilization of the radio resources. The main fu areas of the BSC are:
Radio Network Management
BTS Management
TRC Handling
Transmission Network Management
Internal BSC Operation and Maintenance
Handling of MS connections
BSC handles MS connections during a call setup and during a call. Call set up involves the following processes:
Paging: the BSC sends paging messages to the BTS’s defined within t (Location Area). The load situation in the BSC is checked before the pa is sent to the BTS.
Signaling set-up: during call set-up, the MS connection is transferred to a (Stand alone Dedicated Control Channel) allocated by the BSC. If the MS i connection, the BSC checks its processor load before the request is furthe Assignment of traffic channel: after SDCCH assignment, the call set
continues with the assignment of a TCH (Traffic Channel) by the BSC.

In Ericsson’s GSM systems, the TRC contains units, which perform transco
adaptation. These hardware units are called Transcoder and Rate Ada
(TRAUs). All TRAUs are pooled, meaning that any BSC connected to request the use of one of the TRAUs for a particular call. The TRC also supports discontinuous transmission. If pauses in speech comfort noise is generated by the TRAU in the direction of the MSC/VLR.
