Stream Control Transmission Protocol(SCTP)
 SCTP is a reliable datagram transfer protocol based on an

unreliable transfer protocol such as UDP.
 SCTP End Point is a logical entity, logical datagram sender and
receiver. Each SCTP End Point is only identified by IP address and
port number, similar to TCP.
 SCTP Association is a logical association or channel established
between two SCTP End Points. Client/Server mode is adopted.

MTP3-User Adaptation Layer Protocol(M3UA)
 M3UA (MTP3-User Adaptation Layer) protocol conducts

conversion between SPCs and IP addresses. It is used for the SS7
signaling to transfer between the Softswitch and the Signaling
Gateway(SG). It supports to transfer the MTP3 user messages
over the IP network, including ISUP, TUP, and SCCP messages.

Signaling connection control protocol SCCP
 In ZXWR RNC, SCCP protocol is mainly used to transport

signaling message by Iu/Iur interface. The client is RANAP and
RNSAP.
 It offers the connectionless or connection-oriented services for
its client. The SCCP also offers the segmentation and reassembly
functions.

Time Interval

 Transport Block
 The basic switching unit between L1 and MAC layer
 Transport Block Set

 A Set of Transport Blocks which are Transmitted in a Transport channel on a certain moment.
 Transport Block Size

 The bit number of a Transport Block.
 Transport Block Set Size

 The bit number of a Transport Block Set.
 Transport Time Interval

 Transport Time Interval is defined as a time interval for a Transport Block arrived, and it equals to the
time for transporting a Transport Block on the Physical Layer of Radio Interface. It is always the
gemination of MIN. interleaving cycle (10ms, Size of Radio Frame). MAC layer transports a Transport
Block Set to the physical layer in each TTI.
 Transport Format
 Transport Format is defined as the format of a Transport Block Set which is transported on a Transport
channel. The format is provided for MAC layer by L1 (or MAC layer provides for L1). The Transport
Format is consisted of two parts: dynamical part and static part.

 Transport Format Set

 Transport Format Set is defined as a set of Transport Format on a Transport Channel. In side of a
Transport Format Set the static part of transport format is the same. The previous two features of the
dynamic part determine the instantaneous bit rate of the Transport channel.
 Transport Format Combination

 When one or more transport channels map in L1, for each transport channel, there should be a sets of
Transport Format (Transport Format Set) available. For a certain time, not all the Format Combination is
appropriate for L1, but only a sub-set, which is Transport Format Combination.
 Transport Format Combination Set

 Transport Format Combination Set is defined as a set of Transport Format Combination of Coded
Composite Transport Channel (CCTrCH) .
 Transport Format Indicator

 TFI is the specific indicator for a certain Transport Format among the Transport Format Set. It is used
between L1 and MAC layer, when they exchange a transport block set.
 Transport Format Combination Indicator

 TFCI is a indicator of the current Transport Format Combination.

The Services Provided by L1 and Timing
Operation
 The Physical Layer provides Data Transport Services for the upper
layer, which are implemented by MAC sub-layer through
Transport Channel.
 Transport Format (or Transport Format Set) defines the feature of the
transport channel, meanwhile, it also indicates the processing on the
transport channel by physical layer, such as convolutional encoding and
interleaving, rate match required by the services and so on.
 The operation on the physical layer is strictly according to the
timing of L1 Radio frame. And for every 10ms (or multiple times
of 10ms) to generate a transport block.

Physical Layer Function
 FEC encoding/decoding of transport channel

 To provide measurement and indicator for the upper layer (such as FER, SIR,
Interference Power, Transport Power and so on)
 Macro Diversity distribution/ Combination and soft handover implementation
 Error Detection of transport channel
 Transport Channel multiplexing, Coding Combination Transport Channel
demultiplexing
 Rate Matching
 To map Coding Combination Transport Channel to physical channel
 Physical channel modulation/Frequency Spreading and Demodulation/Frequency
De-spreading
 Frequency and Timing (Chip, Bit, Slot, Frame) synchronization
 Close loop power control
 Physical channel power weight and combination
