TIA TIA-2001-D-3 PDF

This standard provides the specification for the interfaces which coincide with the Refe rence Points "A", "Ater", "Aquater", and "Aquinter" defined in the 3GPP2 Wireless Network Reference Model shown in [I-1] and Reference Points 27 and 48 for Legacy MS Support [18].

The scope of this standard includes the following topics:

• MSC-BS and BS-BS interfaces:

- descriptions of the specified functional capabilities that provide wireless telecommunications services across the MSC-BS and BS-BS interfaces as defined in the 3GPP2 Wireless Network Reference Model;

- descriptions of the specified functional capabilities that provide wireless tele14 communications services across the MSCe-BS and the MGW-BS interfaces;

- descriptions of the division of responsibility of the functions provided between the BS and the MSC, and between the source BS and the target BS, without prescribing specific implementations;

- descriptions of the MSC-BS interface and the BS-BS interface standards that support DS-41 and cdma2000 systems.

• BS-PCF interfaces:

- descriptions of the specified functional capabilit ies that provide packet data services across the BS-PCF interface;

- descriptions of the division of responsibility of the functions provided between the BS and the PCF without prescribing specific implementations.

• PCF-PDSN interfaces:

- descriptions of the specified functional capabilit ies that provide packet data services across the PCF-PDSN interface;

- descriptions of the division of responsibility of the functions provided between the PCF and the PDSN without prescribing specific implementations.

The interfaces defined in this s tandard are specified by a set of characteristics, including:

• physical and electromagnetic parameters;

• channel structures;

• message types and contents;

• network operating procedures;

• user data framing and transport.
