Abstract

Goal of this master thesis is to examine role and position of MSC Server in core network after introducing of LTE system in already complex mobile networks architecture. Starting point is that current mobile networks with MSC Server are using circuit switched access and ISUP protocol for voice services, while LTE networks are pure packet switched networks and main protocol is SIP protocol. This work will analyse requirements for MSC Server for interoperation with LTE and IMS systems. Also possibility of using voice and SMS services in LTE networks and continuity of voice session while changing access network will be analysed. Finally, future of MSC Server in LTE networks will be checked by analysing 3GPP standards, trends and recommendations. Since MSC server is part of the core part of the network this thesis will be oriented mainly to the core part of mobile networks.

Abstract (croatian)

Cilj ovog magistarskog rada je ispitati ulogu i položaj MSC poslužitelja pokretnog prospojnog centra u jezgrenom dijelu mreže nakon uvođenja LTE sustava u već složenu arhitekturu pokretnih mreža. Kreće se od činjenice da današnje pokretne mreže s MSC poslužiteljem koriste komutaciju kanala i ISUP protokol kao glavni protokol za govorne usluge, dok LTE mreže imaju samo komutaciju paketa i glavnih protokol je SIP protokol. Ovaj rad će analizirati zahtjeve na MSC poslužitelj koji mu omogućuju povezivanje s LTE i IMS sustavima. Također će se analizirati mogućnost korištenja usluge prijenosa govora i SMS-a u LTE mrežama te mogućnosti kontinuiteta poziva prilikom pronjene pristupne mreže. Na kraju će biti analizirana budućnost MSC poslužitelja u LTE mrežama analizom 3GPP standarda, trendova i preporuka. Pošto je MSC poslužitelj dio jezgrenog dijela mreže ovaj rad će biti orijentiran uglavnom na jezgreni dio pokretnih mreža.
