    GPRS Mobility Management (GMM)
    The mobility management functions are used to keep
    track of the current location of an MS within the PLMN
    or within another PLMN.

    Session management
    Session Management function manages the PDP
    context of MS.

    Security management
    Identify and authenticate the subscriber identity and
    check the validity of service requests of subscribers so
    that only valid subscribers can access services provided
    by the network.

    QOS classification
    1. Conversational
    2. Streaming
    3. Interactive
    4. Background
    What is traffic management?

    Charging

    Can be bases on time or volume


    Offline charging
    o By GGSN and CG and BS.
    o Sending generated eG-CDRs and to CG.
    o The standard charging data is sent to a billing system (BS) for
    final processing.
    Online charging
    o By GGSN and OCS.
    o Sending online charging information to OCS on Gy Diameter
    interface.

    Admission control
    Routing
    Dynamic IP allocation

    Important Concept: PDP context


    The PDP context is Packet Data Protocol context
    PDP context contains all the information needed to
    transfer user data between MS and GGSN.
    A primary PDP context records the following
    information:

    PDP type
    PDP address
    QOS
    APN resolution

    PDP context exists in MS, SGSN, GGSN and RNC.

    13

    Important Concept: PDP states


    Inactivecannot transmit data

    INACTIVE

    Activate PDP
    Context

    Deactivate PDP Context


    or
    MM state change to IDLE
    or PMM-DETACHED

    ACTIVE

    Activecan transmit data

    14

    Important Concept : PDP Type and PDP Address


    PDP Type
    o IPV4
    o IPV6
    o PPP
    PDP Address
    o Static IP
    o Is defined in HLR
    o Public or Private (Valid or invalid)
    o Dynamic IP
    o Allocates by GGSN
    o Valid or invalid

    15

    Important Concept : Access Point Name (APN)

    APN structure:
    Network ID.mnc<MNC>.mcc<MCC>.gprs

    Network
    Identifier

    Operator
    Identifier

    Operator ID : fixed extension, must end with .gprs


    Network ID shall not end with .gprs
    MNC: mobile network code
    MCC: mobile country code
    Rightel.mnc20.mcc432.gprs
    16

    Important Concept : PDP activation procedure


    MS

    UTRAN

    3G-SGSN

    1. Activate PDP Context Request


    (PDP Type, PDP Address, Access Point Name,
    QoS Requested)

    3G-GGSN

    C1
    2. Create PDP Context Request
    3. Create PDP Context Response

    4. Radio Access Bearer Setup Qos

    Charging ID allocation
    IP address
    5. Update PDP Context Request
    6. Update PDP Context Response
    C2

    7. Activate PDP Context Accept

    PDP activation procedure : MS

    MS start and send Active PDP context request to SGSN


    Provide QoS parameter
    Provide a APN-NI
    Provide a static IP or null

    Receive ACCEPT from SGSN


    If the QoS not accept by MS, then starts delete PDP context
    procedure.

    18

    PDP activation procedure : SGSN

    Check subscriber data


    APN selection
    default APN, APN provide from MS and the APN subscribed in HLR
    APN-NI.APN-OI.GPRS

    QoS negotiation
    QoS provided from MS, default QoS , QoS subscribed in HLR

    Send message create PDP context request to GGSN


    RAB assignment
    Send message active PDP context accept to MS
    Dynamic IP address
    QoS

    19

    PDP activation procedure : GGSN

    Check the APN provided by SGSN

    QoS negotiation

    Allocate a dynamic IP to the MS

    Allocate a charging ID for the PDP context

    Return a CREATE PDP CONTEXT ACCEPT message to SGSN


    Dynamic IP
    QoS
    Charging ID
    Other information

    Update PDP context
