Iu-PS: connects a RAN to a Packet-Switched CN
GTP tunnel management
GTP-U tunnel between RNC & SGSN for transporting user packets
Radio Access Bearer (RAB) management
RAB = logical connection between mobile & CN (with assigned radio resources) for
user or data signaling
Radio resource management during RAB establishment or renegotiation
Mobility management:
supporting handover between RNCs
supporting paging functions
Routing area update
Signaling is handled by RANAP (Radio Access Network Application Part)

RANAP RANAP
SCCP The use of RANAP & SCCP is unchanged SCCP
M3UA performs a role similar to that of MTP3 in
MTP-3B SS7 signaling M3UA
SSCF-NNI M3UA/SCTP = new protocols created by SIGTRAN
to transport SS7 applications over IP SCTP
SSCOP
The difference between M3UA and MTP3 is that
AAL5 instead of transporting messages over TDM/SS7 IP
Cost-effective
Replace long-distance TDM leased lines by
cost-effective IP link
Reduce network infrastructure cost by
removing Signaling Transfer Points
IP flexibility & resiliency
Large bandwidth (compared to ATM)
Fault resilient : failure detection &
redundancy by SCTP
Flexible on-demand resource utilization SIGTRAN Architecture
Migration toward all-IP NGN/IMS

SCTP Association 2
What is an association?
What is a transport address?
What is a chunk?
What is the TSN?
When an SCTP Endpoint can be considered as Multi-homing?
How does SCTP ensure reachability from one Endpoint to another?
