4. 3G VISION - APPLICATION Application  Multimedia Message Service (MMS)  Email  Video phone  Video streaming  Any service from the Internet

5. 3G VAS APPLICATIONS  Video SMS  Video Portal  Mobile TV  Video IVR  Video CRBT  Mobile Video Marketing  YouTube upload  Video conferencing  Video greeting  Dial TV service  3G Music Station with full track song download  Video Contact Center

6. 2G TOWARDS 3G Higher data bandwidth requirement  Anticipated subscriber demand for  Audio/Video streaming  Other multimedia services  Collaborative services  Location services

7. 3G - PRINCIPLE REQUIREMENT Support for voice quality comparable with fixed line networks Support for both circuit-switched and packet-switched data services Support for greater capacity and improved spectrum efficiency

8. 3G–PRINCIPAL REQUIREMENT A data rate of 144 kb/s for users moving quickly e.g. moving vehicles A data rate of 384 kb/s for pedestrians A data rate of 2 Mb/s in a low mobility or office environment. Note how a network using GPRS and EDGE meets most of these criteria!

9. Example: 3G SERVICES (UMTS) Universal Mobile Telephone System (UMTS)  Four QoS classes of services Conversational Class  Voice, video telephony,video gaming Streaming Class  multimedia, video on demand, webcast Interactive Class  WWW browsing, database access, online gaming Background Class  email, SMS, file downloading

18. 2G & 3G NETWORK

19. TOWARDS IP NETWORK

20. 3-CORE NETWORK MIGRATION Classic MSC (Control and Switching) Classical MSC Architecture (old name: Non-Layered Mobile Core Network/ ’Monolitic’ Architecture) TDM MSC MSC Server (Control) Mobile Media Gateway (Switching) Mobile Softswitch Solution (old name: Layered Mobile Core Network Architecture) IP/ATM/TDM Control Layer MSC-SMGwMSC-SMGw

21. INCREMENTAL MIGRATION In Pakistan, Most operators have incrementally Migrated. Two strategies have been adapted GPRS adapted by Warid Telecom. EDGE adapted by Ufone.

22. MOBILE SOFT SWITCH SOLUTION FOR 3G CORE NETWORK One of the most efficient way to upgrade for 3G core networks. Layered architecture for ease MSS is only for Mobile core networks

23. LAYERED ARCHITECTURE The benefit of layered architecture is from research and development purpose. In communication there are two main recourses i.e. controlling and connectivity.

24. MSS LAYERS 1.Control Layer 2.Connectivity Laye 3.Application Layer

26. CONTROL LAYER This layer is refer to the logical layer as it performs logical operations of the MSS this node provides the analysis and control functions required for circuit switched traffic and using standardized signaling controlling the allocation of required resources in the connectivity layer

27. CONNECTIVITY LAYER This layer is based on ATM (Asynchronous Transfer Mode) and IP protocols. Providing end-to-end connection throughout the core network. This layer provide standard interfaces for the connectivity with other legace networks.

28. APPLICATION LAYER In this layer all the application are added and managed. Like if Warid want to provide CBRT (Caller Back Ring Tone) service then it add server that provide this service to the user in the application layer. Recourses of such servers are controlled by MSC-S.

29. MSS ARCHITECTURE

30. MSS NODES 1. MSC-S (Mobile Switching Server) 2. M-MGW (Mobile Media Gateway)

31. MSC-SERVER MSC-S is the control layer device of the 3G network. It contains all call and control service logic such as: ѣ Charging analysis ѣ Bearer selection ѣ Route analysis ѣ Media Gate way selection

32. MSC-SERVER It provides efficient and centralized control of the distributed switching provided by the Mobile Media Gateway (M-MGw), ensuring flexible, cost-effective network design, and a smooth evolution to an all-IP core network.

33. MSC-SERVER MSC-S Data Base nodes Other MSC-S M-MGW Radio Sites

34. M-MGW M-MGW is the connectivity layer device. M-MGW connects the MSS core network with the external networks such as WCDMA and GSM radio access networks, PSTN networks, PABXs, IMS/VoIP network, or other mobile networks. This node controlled by MSC-S.
