Capacity
Traffic capacity, (e g 2,500 Erlang), tells how many simultaneous calls a unit can handle. One Erlang corresponds to one busy line. If a subscriber calls 25 mErlang during busy hour, he is in average calling 25/1000 of the hour (=25*60*60/1000 = 90 seconds).
Erlang can be limited by for example the group switch, available speech trunks, transcoders etc. But this does not give any idea about the processor loading as well as nor about non call activities.

Call capacity, (e g 100,000 BHCA), tells how many call attempts a
unit can handle during busy hour. This figure is a better measure of processor capacity but still, this measure does not take into account non-call related activities.
Subscriber capacity, (e g 60,000 subscribers), tells how many subscribers that can be served by a unit. This figure is strongly depending on subscriber behavior.

Addressing capacity, (e g 1020 TRXs), tells how many HW or SW
devices that can be connected / defined. This is also known as system limits. Here, no considerations to real-time processing needs or amount of traffic are made.

In the default traffic load distribution for a GMSC/MSC/HLR the call part
takes about 70% of the capacity of the traffic load, the location updating part about 25%, the SMS part 3% and supplementary services approximately 2%.
If one look into the traffic part (70% of traffic load) the actual basic load part is 53% of the usage load, a gate way load part is 7.5%, a charging part 5%, a handover part 3% and a part used for authentication about 1%

Numbering Plan
The MSISDN is a number which uniquely identifies a mobile telephone subscription in the public switched telephone network numbering plan. These are the digits dialed when calling a mobile subscriber.
In GSM 900/GSM 1800, the MSISDN consists of the following:
MSISDN = CC + NDC + SN

A NDC is allocated to each PLMN. In some countries, more than
one NDC may be required for each PLMN.
The international MSISDN number may be of variable length.The maximum length is 15 digits, prefixes not included.
Example: Singapore PSTN subscriber is calling to an Indian GSM PLMN subscriber

International Mobile Subscriber Identity (IMSI)
The IMSI is the information which uniquely identifies a sub in a GSM PLMN. It is used in all the signaling in the PLMN.
It will be stored in the in the Subscriber Identity Module (SIM), as well as in the HLR and in the serving VLR.
It consists of three different parts

IMSI = MCC + MNC + MSIN
MCC = Mobile Country Code (3 digits)
MNC = Mobile Network Code (2 digits)
MSIN= Mobile Station Identification Number
All network related subscriber information is connected to the IMSI.

In GSM 1900, the MSISDN consists of the following:
MSISDN = CC + NPA + SN
CC = Country Code
NPA = Number Planning Area
SN = Subscriber Number

The NPA is allocated to each GSM 1900 PLMN. The length of MSISDN
depends on the structure and operating plan of each operator. The maximum length is 15 digits, prefixes not included.

Circuit Vs Packet Data
Circuit Switched Service: • 2G system (primarily voice and data on circuit switched air interface)
• Call charging based on channel holding time.
• Maximum number of users per TDMA channel is 8
• Suitable for constant bit rate applications
• Resource allocation is done such that UL and DL are paired.

Packet Switched Service:
• Several users can share the same channel.
• Charges based on channel usage (actual usage of byte transferred).
• Well suited for bursty traffic.
• Resource allocation done independently on UL and DL (good for applications with asymmetrical bit rate)
• Dynamic allocation of resources
• Can multiplex traffic (voice, data, video).

• Attach
Performed when the MS indicates its presence to PLMN for the purpose of using GPRS service
Carried out between MS and SGSN
MS identifies itself with its GSM identity
GPRS subscription necessary for successful attach
• Detach
Performed when the MS indicates to the PLMN that it no longer be using GPRS services
MS identifies itself with its GSM identity

SGSN
• Responsible for delivery of packets to mobile subscribers in its service area.
• Mobility Management
• Logical link management, authentication
• GPRS user- related data needed by SGSN to perform routing and transfer functionality stored in GPRS Register eg current cell, current VLR, user profile including IMSI and its address in PDN.
• Interface point between core and Radio networks

• Acts as an interface between GPRS network and external PDNs
• Mainly responsible for packet routing, transfer and mobility management
Converts packets from SGSN into appropriate PDP format and sends them out to corresponding PDN
PDP addresses of incoming data packets from PDN are converted to IMSI of the destination user and sent to the responsible SGSN.
