Introduction The present document captures the results of the feasibility study for introducing support for A-interface over IP. ETSI ETSI TR 143 903 V15.0.0 (2018-07)63GPP

33、 TR 43.903 version 15.0.0 Release 151 Scope The present document contains the result from the study of introduction of support for A-interface over IP. High level areas that are studied are e.g. potential placement of transcoders in the core network, effective bandwidth utilisation at the A-interfac

34、e, impact on call related messages, payload formats. The following items shall be covered in the study: - In the target solution it is wanted to transfer compressed speech as far as possible end-to-end to achieve efficient transport and speech quality. The possibility to free GERAN from handling all

35、 kind of transcoders shall be studied, and the architecture might place Codecs in the core network. - Impacts/changes on current A-interface procedures resulting from placing transcoders in the core network as well as in the BSS shall be studied, e.g. impacts on the assignment and handover procedure

36、s. - In addition to allow compressed speech over the A-interface the study shall provide further solution for effective bandwidth utilisation at the A interface, which means it shall describe multiplexing of RTP flows and how this will be negotiated between the BSS and CN nodes. - The study shall de

37、scribe a solution for “true end-to-end Codec negotiation“, which considers on a call basis the preference/situation of the radio network. - It shall be studied how call related messages have to be adapted, e.g. transfer of Codec related information, identification of calls/sessions. - The study shal

38、l describe the wanted payload formats and other relevant user plane parameters like packetization time etc. 2 References The following documents contain provisions which, through reference in this text, constitute provisions of the present document. - References are either specific (identified by da

48、TR 21.905 1 and the following apply. A term defined in the present document takes precedence over the definition of the same term, if any, in TR 21.905 1. example: text used to clarify abstract rules by applying them literally. For the sake of easy explanation the following short terms are defined:

49、Legacy MSC Server: The Legacy MSC server does not support AoIP. Legacy MGW: The Legacy MGW does not support AoIP. Legacy BSS: The Legacy BSS does not support AoIP. New MSC Server: The New MSC Server supports only the AoIP-interface. Legacy BSSes are not supported by a New MSC Server. Upgraded MSC Server: The Upgraded MSC Server supports both, the TDM A-interface and the IP A-interface. Both kinds of interfaces could work simultaneously for different BSSs. It is claimed by some companies (e.g. Ericsson) that it is necessary
