14.1 DSS1 Signaling


14.1.1 Overview of DSS1 Signaling
ISDN features multiple capabilities, including circuit switching, packet switching, non-switching connection, and common channel signaling. Normally, a network only provides functions of lower layersphysical layer, data link layer, and network layer - of the open systems interconnection (OSI) model. Intra-network higher layer (layers 4 to 7 of model OSI) functions required by some supplementary services can be implemented inside ISDN or provided by an independent service center. The basic structure of ISDN is shown in Figure 14-1. The terminal equipment (TE) of ISDN is connected through the standard user-to-network interface. Figure 14-1 Structure of ISDN

14.1.2 Basic Concepts


Reference Points and Functional Group
The reference configuration (reference model) of the ISDN user-to-network interface is shown in Figure 14-2. The model is an abstract arrangement of the user-to-network interface standardized by CCITT (ITU) regulations. It offers reference points to be standardized and functional groups related to the reference points.

Functional group

Reference point In Figure 14-2, crosses stands for reference points. A cross is a conceptual reference point for dividing functional groups. In the user accessing, crosses stand for physical interfaces between device units. For the implementation of multiple functional groups combined in one device, reference points between functional groups exist only conceptually. The physical interfaces cannot be observed. There are three types of reference points: the U reference point, S/T reference point and R reference point.

U reference point The U reference point, also called the U interface, is the line interface between the network and the user. According to the regulations of ITU, the U interface is the line interface between the network and the ISDN basic rate access (BRA) user, but not the line interface between the network and the primary rate access (PRA) user. Comparing the reference model to the actual application, we regard that the E1 line in the PRA application as the U interface in Figure 14-2. The BRA U interface determines the transmission line code. The U interface uses the original analog subscriber line (ASL). To transmit digital signals through twisted pairs, you need to reduce transmission attenuation. One way for reducing transmission attenuation is to reduce the line transmission rate, that is, to transmit a 2-bit binary code with one level. The transmission line code adopted by the U interface in China is 2B1Q. This code indicates that the line transmission uses four levels, each level being a combination of two bits. Correlation between binary codes and line levels: Binary code 00 01 10 11 Line level 3V 1V +3V +1V

In this way, the line rate is reduced by half compared with the binary code rate, thus reducing the transmission attenuation. When the 2B1Q line code is used, the line element rate (baud rate) is 80 kbit/s, and the corresponding bandwidth is 160 kbit/s. The bandwidth allocation is described in Table 14-1.

S reference point and T reference point The S reference point, also called S interface, is the line interface between the ISDN terminal (terminal equipment type 1 (TE1) or terminal adaptor (TA)) and the network terminal (NT). The T reference point, also called T interface, is the line interface between network terminal type 1 (NT1) and network terminal type 2 (NT2). In the ITU regulation, the specifications of the S interface is the same as that of the T interface. If the NT2 device does not exist, S and T together form S/T reference point, also called S/T interface. The S/T interface uses a four-line transmission mode, two lines for sending and two lines for receiving. The line code is a pseudo-AMI (alternate mark inversion) code. In AMI code, binary bit "1" is converted to positive pulse or negative pulse, which alternate forward and backward; binary bit "0" is converted to level 0. Figure 14-3 illustrates the correlation between a binary code and an AMI code.

R reference point The R reference point, also called R interface, is a non-standard ISDN terminal interface, for example, RS-232 interface, IEEE-488 interface, and analog telephone interface.

Functional group In Figure 14-2, blocks stand for functional groups. A functional group is the combination and arrangement of functions required on ISDN user interfaces. In application, a number of functional groups may be implemented in one device.

NT1 provides U interfaces and S/T interfaces for connecting ISDN terminals and devices of the ISDN exchange. The function of NT1 is the code conversion between the U interface and S/T interface, for example, the 2B1Q/AMI code conversion in the Chinese standard. NT1 is purely a physical layer device without software intelligence, but it has the line maintenance and performance monitoring functions. It ensures the clock synchronization of the ISDN terminal and network.
If the NT1 includes the function of the TA, it is called NT1+.

NT2 NT2 is an intelligent terminal device. A common NT2 device can be a terminal control device such as a private automatic branch exchange (PABX) that has the functions of ISDN, and a LAN router.

TE1 The TE1 is a standard ISDN terminal, with standard S interfaces. It can be connected directly with the NT1 or NT2 through S interfaces. Common TE1 devices include ISDN digital telephone sets, G4 fax machines, and video phones.

Terminal equipment type 2 (TE2) TE2 is a non-standard ISDN terminal without S interfaces. It cannot be directly connected with the NT1 or NT2. An S interface can be connected to the TE2 through a terminal adapter (TA). Common TE2 devices include PCs, ordinary telephone sets, X 25 packet terminals and G3 fax machines.

TA There is an S or U interface on one end of the TA, and an interface for connecting a non-standard ISDN terminal on the other end. The role of the TA is for rate adaptation and protocol conversion. The non-standard ISDN terminal (TE2) does not have the function of the common channel signaling (D channel). It can be connected with the S or U interface only after the rate adaptation and protocol conversion with the TA. Some TAs contain the built-in AT command set. The AT command set is a general command format for operating on the Modem on a computer. It supports call originating and answering on a computer. In other words, the AT command is converted to D channel signaling. With a TA, the user can make calls and transmit data simultaneously through a computer. The B channel protocol of the TA is V.110. It converts the low-speed serial port data to the data with the speed of 64 kbit/s to enter the B channel. It enables the non-standard ISDN terminal to communicate with the network through a standard ISDN interface.

ISDN Channel
The ISDN channel type refers to the channel path type of the user-to-network interface. It includes bearer channel (B channel), demand channel (D channel) and H channel. B channel The B channel is used for transmitting user information (including voice, data and images) at the rate of 64 kbit/s. It can implement circuit switching, packet switching and semi-permanent connection (SPC). D channel

HUAWEI GSM-T GTSOFTX3000 Technical Manual Signaling and Protocols

The D channel transmits signaling messages and packet messages for circuit switching. According to the number of B channels supported by D channels, D channels are divided into 2B+D and 30B+D. Table 14-2 Bandwidth allocation in the 2B1Q line code mode Channel D16 D64 Rate (Bit/s) 16k 64k Function D channel in 2B+D D channel in 30B+D

H channel The H channel is for transmitting user information (including stereo programs, images and data) at a rate over 384 kbit/s.

ISDN Interface
The ISDN interface falls into three types: BRA (2B+D), PRA (30B+D) and ISUP. BRA interface BRA is short for the basic rate interface/access (BRI/BRA). It is specified when the ordinary subscriber line in PSTN is used as the ISDN subscriber line. It has a rate of 144 kbit/s. It supports two 64 kbit/s user channels (B channel) and one 16 kbit/s signaling channel (D channel). The BRA interface is provided by the digital subscriber line board (DSL) of the optical network unit (ONU) or remote subscriber processor (RSP) under the UMG8900. Each DSL can provide eight BRA interfaces. One BRA interface can be connected with eight ISDN terminals at most. It allows two telephones (each occupying a B channel) and a packet terminal (occupying the D channel) to communicate with the network simultaneously. When the ISDN-PC communicates with the network, it can occupy two B channels at the maximum rate of 128 kbit/s. As shown in Figure 1-6, the eight ISDN terminals attached to the 2B+D interface can call another terminal in the "subscriber number + sub-address" mode. Two subscriber numbers must be allocated to a BRA interface on the network side and set on the terminal. Each subscriber number can have four sub-addresses (14 digits) at most. On the network side, sub-address numbers need not be set. Only the authorities for sub-address numbers need to be registered. Sub-addresses are set on terminals.

PRA interface According to different gaping (E1=32TS, T1=24TS) divided by the PCM system, the primary rate interfaces/accesses (PRI/PRA) are classified into the 30B+D interfaces (China and Europe) and the 23B+D interfaces (North America and Japan). The 30B+D interface is the PRA interface in China with a rate of 2048 kbit/s. It supports thirty 64 kbit/s user channels (B channels) and a 64 kbit/s signaling channel (D channel). The physical channel of the PRA interface is provided by the digital trunk module (DTM). The board type must be set to "PRA" during hardware data configuration. Each PRA board provides two 30B+D PRA interfaces. The subscriber line is a coaxial cable that can meet the requirement of users with heavy traffic. The PRA interface can be connected to the PABX that has the functions of ISDN, a LAN, or Internet interim inter-switch signalling protocol (ISP) system. It can also provide channels for video conference users to transmit high quality pictures. ISUP interface The ISDN user part (ISUP) interface is needed for enabling the ISUP circuit between two exchanges.

The UMG8900 provides the BRIs and PRIs specified in ISDN User to Network Interface Specifications, for processing Q.921 messages. It transparently transmits Q.931 signaling to the GTSOFTX3000 through ISDN Q.921-User Adaptation Layer (IUA) to implement the following ISDN services: Providing BRIs for the accessing of ordinary ISDN users (2B+D); Providing PRIs for accessing PABXs and network access servers (NAS). For the DSS1 signaling system, this document introduces only the PRI. For the BRI, refer to relevant standards.

14.1.4 Protocol Structure of DSS1


DSS1 signaling has three layers: physical layer, data link layer and call control layer. Figure 14-6 illustrates the correlation between DSS1 signaling and the OSI reference model.

Physical Layer
The physical layer specifies the procedure and electrical and functional features of the ISDN user-to-network interface. It provides the technical basis for the interconnection, operation and maintenance, equipment design, network planning and acceptance test of the user-to-network interface. For example, the reference configuration of the PRI is shown in Figure 14-7. Figure 14-7 Reference configuration of ISDN user-to-network interfaces

The meanings of the B channel and D channel supported by the PRI: B channel: bearer channel of the user information with the rate of 64 kbit/s, used for carrying voice and data for circuit switching, packet switching and SPC. D channel: bearer channel of the signaling information with the rate of 64 kbit/s, used to transmit the signaling information and packet data information of circuit switching. The PRI physical channel is in the PCM structure. It has the same rate as the PCM primary rate, namely, 2048 kbit/s. The PRI can use twisted pairs as the transmission media. In the 30/32 channels of PCM, each frame is divided into 32 basic time slots. TS0 is used for frame synchronization and error control, and TS16 for signaling transmission.

Data Link Layer


The data link layer specifies the specification attributes of the data link layer of the ISDN user-to-network interface (PRI). These specification attributes include the concept and terms of the data link layer protocol, and the frame structure, procedure, procedure element and field format of the data link layer protocol under normal operation. On the ISDN user-to-network interface, the data link layer protocol accesses the LAPD protocol through the link on the D channel. The LAPD protocol defines rules for the layer 2 entity on the user-to-network interface to exchange information through the D channel. The layer 2 entity may exchange information between the TE and the NT2 (such as PABX, LAN and a router), between the NT2 and an exchange, or between the TE and an exchange. Therefore, LAPD is to provide means of information transmission between combinations of data link connection ends. Functions of LAPD are as follows: Providing data link connections on one or more D channels; Discrimination of data link connections depending on the data link connection identifier (DLCI) contained in each frame; Delimitation, location and transparent transmission of frames, hence allowing recognizing a string of bits sent on the D channel in the form of a frame; Sequence control for keeping the sequence of frames connected through data links; Checking of the transmission and format of and operation onto data link connections; Error recovery after the transmission, format and operation check; Notifying the management entity of unrecoverable errors; Performing flow control; Management of the activation of the physical layer. For details, refer to ISDN User to Network Interface Specifications Part 2: Technical Specifications on Data Link Layer (YDN 034.3-1997).

Call Control Layer


The call control layer specifies the procedure for establishing, keeping and removing network connections on the ISDN user-to-network interface. It also specifies the process of message exchange on the D channel. With the functions and services provided by the data link layer, the call control layer provides functions for establishing and operating on network connections to users. These functions support the basic call control program and the call control program related to supplementary features provided by the network. These functions include: Processing the primitive used for the communication with the data link layer; Generating and translating layer-3 messages for intra-layer communication; Managing the timer and logical entity used in the call control program; Managing accessing resources, including the B channel, and the logical path of the packet layer (for example, X.25 recommendations); Ensuring the consistency between the provided services and the services required by the user (for example, the bearer capacity, address, and the compatibility between the lower layers and the higher layers);

Routing and trunks; Network connection control; Transmitting information between the network and the user; Multiplexing of network connections; Error checking; Error recovery; Sequencing; Blocking control and user data stream control; Restart. For details, refer to ISDN User to Network Interface Specifications Part 3: Technical Specifications on Basic Call Control of Layer 3 (YDN 034.3-1997).

14.1.5 Call Control Message


The Layer 3 (call control layer) entity of the user side needs to communicate with the Layer 3 entity of the network side for call control. The communication is realized by exchanging messages on the D channel. The call control layer message is composed of data blocks of different lengths. It is produced and processed by the call control layer, and carried and transmitted by the data link layer. The format of the call control layer message specified by the recommendations of ITU-T Q.931/Q.932 is illustrated in Figure 14-8. The call control layer message consists of a number (an integer) of bytes. Each message has a common part, and optional or mandatory information elements. Figure 14-8 Format of ITU-T Q.931 messages

HUAWEI GSM-T GTSOFTX3000 Technical Manual Signaling and Protocols

Protocol Discriminator
The protocol discriminator separates the call control message from other messages on the user-to-network interface. The length of the protocol discriminator is one byte. The value of the Q.931 call control layer message fixedly is 00001000.

Call Reference Value


The reference identifies calls involved by messages or facility registration/un-registration requests on the local user-to-network interface. Call reference value does not have the meaning of overriding ISDN from end to end. The call reference value is allocated by the call originating interface. Inside the layer-2 logical link connection of a specific D channel, call reference values are unique on the originating side. They are allocated at the start of calls and kept till the end of these calls (except in the cases of call suspension). After the end or successful suspension of a call, the call reference value can be re-allocated to a new call. On layer 2 logical links of a same D channel, two calls of different directions can have the same call reference value. The eighth byte of the second eight-byte set is the call reference flag. The value of the flag is 0 or 1. The call reference flag identifies the end of the layer 2 logical link to send the call reference value. The call reference flag on the originating side is always set to 0, and that on the terminating side is always set to 1. The sole purpose of the call reference flag is to solve the problem of two ends attempting to allocate the same call reference value at the same time. The call reference flag is also applied when using the global call reference (for example, to restart a program).

Message Type
Message types identifies messages that are being sent. They include different information elements. The message part is the third part of a message, and its length is one byte. Bit 8 is reserved for future expansion. Call control layer messages of Q.931 are classified into four types: messages for call setup, messages used at the call information stage, messages for call clearing, and other messages. The coding of different types of messages is described in Table 14-3. Table 14-3 Types of call control layer messages of Q.931 Message Code 0000 0001 0000 0010 0000 0111 0000 1111 0000 0011 0000 0101 0000 1101 0010 0110 Messages used at the call Message Type Messages for call setup ALERTING CALL PROCEEDING CONNECT CONNECT ACKNOWLEDGE PROGRESS SETUP SETUP ACKNOWLEDGE RESUME

14.1.6 Basic Signaling Process


The following takes the process of the simplest call control with circuit switching as an example to describe the basic signaling process of DSS1. Suppose both the calling end and the called end use ISDN terminal devices. If ISUP is used as the signaling protocol between the originating and terminating offices, the process of a typical call is illustrated in Figure 14-9.

Call Setup Process


A call request is sent in the form of the SETUP message. The message is transmitted on an established data link. When the SETUP message reaches the network side of the originating office, the network entity of layer 3 checks whether the called address is complete. If it is complete, the originating office returns the CALL PROCEEDING message to hold the caller waiting. If the called address is incomplete, the originating office returns the SETUP ACK message to request subsequent information. The caller sends the INFORMATION message to provide the remaining information. When the originating office network side receives the complete address information, it notifies the exchange for routing and resource allocation. In this example, the call must go through another exchange before being connected to the callee. Therefore, the originating office exchange must send a message containing the call-related information to the terminating office exchange through SS7 signaling (ISUP). When the terminating office receives this message, it sends the SETUP message to the callee. The SETUP message contains all the information sent by the originating office, including the bearer service

capacity, terminal lower layer and higher layer attributes, and end-to-end information. It also contains the subscriber information channel selected by the terminating office. On the basic interface of the callee, the SETUP message is transmitted on the broadcast data link (TEI = 127). Therefore, all the terminals connected to the passive bus receive the SETUP message. These terminals will check whether they meet the content requirements of the SETUP message. For example, whether they have the same bearer service features as the message, whether the lower layer and higher layer protocols are consistent, whether their terminal types match that of the calling terminal, and whether the sub-address (if there is one) is conformant. The following case is possible. For a call, there are several terminals having the information compatible with the SETUP message. Then, these terminals simultaneously return the ALERTING message to the network and send the ringing tone to the callee. The terminating office sends the first ALARTING message to the originating office. When the ALARTING message finally arrives at the calling terminal, the calling terminal sends the ringback tone (or displays the ALARTING information) to the caller. When a called terminal responds to the call, it immediately sends the CONNECT message to the network. The exchange of the terminating office transfers the CONNECT message to the caller side, and at the same time sends the CONNECT ACK message to the responding called terminal. Then, the B channels selected by both exchanges are connected. The circuit connection is set up between the caller and the callee and the circuit is ready for transmitting subscriber information.

Call Release Process


The call release process with the caller hooking on first is as follows. The caller sends the DISCONNECT message (cause value = 16) to the originating office. After the originating office receives the message, it sends the REL message to the terminating office to disconnect the inter-office circuit. The terminating office returns the RLC message, indicating the completion of call release. When the originating office sends the REL message to the terminating office, it also responds to the calling terminal with the RELEASE message to disconnect the inter-office circuit. The calling terminal returns the RELEASE COMPETE message, indicating the completion of disconnection. After the terminating office receives the REL message from the originating office, it sends the DISCONNECT message (cause value =16) to the called terminal. The called terminal responds with the RELEASE message to disconnect the circuit between the caller and the terminating office. The terminating office returns the RELEASE COMPLETE message to the callee, indicating the completion of disconnection. Now, the call is completely released. For the call release process with the callee hooking on first, DSS1 call control messages on the user-to-network interface are the same as the above. Refer to Figure 14-9 for an analysis.

14.2 R2 Signaling
14.2.1 Basic Concepts
As the telecom network is very large in scale, it is hard to replace channel associated signaling completely with SS7 signaling in a short time span. By far, the channel associated signaling system is still widely used in the international telecom network and telecom networks of various countries. No. 1 signaling is a subset of R2 signaling.

R2 signaling consists of line signaling and register signaling. Of these two kinds of signaling, the definition varies from country to country. Line signaling is transmitted between line devices (repeaters). It is composed of line monitoring signals. It is used for monitoring the status of connection of trunks and controlling the connection. A line device cannot be shared among trunks. Instead, each trunk must have a line device. Therefore, line signaling is relatively simple to reduce costs, and the types of line signaling are few. Register signaling is transmitted between registers. It is composed of selection signals and service signals. It is used for selecting route and callee and managing the telephone network. A register is a shared device. Few registers are needed in a signaling network. Therefore, a register can be a complex device for matching more kinds of signaling.

14.2.2 Line Signaling


There are three forms of line signaling: DC line signaling, line signaling with in-band single frequency pulse and digital line signaling.

DC Line Signaling
DC line signaling is used for the real line trunks of electromechanical switches. In China, local call networks are all stored program-controlled; therefore DC line signaling actually is not used. DC line signaling will not be introduced in this document.

Line Signaling with In-Band Single Frequency Pulse


In a toll automatic telephone network, if the inter-office transmission system uses carrier, microwave or satellite circuits of frequency-division multiplexing, the inter-office line signaling usually uses the audio signal, namely, the in-band single frequency pulse signal. The single frequency used by line signaling is 2600 Hz. It consists of the short signal unit, long signal unit and continuous signal unit. The short signal unit is a short pulse signal with the nominal value of 150 milliseconds. The long signal unit is a long pulse signal with the nominal value of 600 milliseconds. The nominal interval of sending two signals is 300 milliseconds. Table 14-4 lists the nominal values of pulse signals and intervals. Table 14-4 Nominal values of the in-band single frequency pulses and their intervals Nominal Values of Pulse Signal or Interval Pulse Short signal unit Sending interval Long signal unit Signal Length (ms) 150 600 Interval (ms) 150 300 600 Sending Time Deviation at Transmitting End (ms) 30 60 120 Recognition Time Range at Receiving End (ms) 80 20 375 75

There are two kinds of line signaling: forward signaling and backward signaling. Forward signaling is sent from the originating office to the terminating office. Backward signaling is

The connection states in Table 14-5 are described as follows: Occupation signal is a forward signaling. When the outgoing trunk of the originating office sends an occupation signal, an incoming trunk of the peer office will change its state from idle to occupied. Disconnection signal is a forward signaling sent by the outgoing trunk to the incoming trunk of the peer office. It means that the switch can release the call in abnormal call disconnection in addition to normal disconnection. The disconnection signal is sent in any of the following cases: 1 2 3 4 The caller hangs up in call control recovery mode The operator of original toll office in toll semi-automatic connection The original office receives a backward register signaling such as connection busy. Callee not pickup after alerting timeout, or caller not hang up for more than 90 seconds after callee hangs up

The repeated disconnection signal is sent by the outgoing trunk of the original office when it does not receive the release control signal 3 to 5 seconds after its sending the disconnection signal. If the release control signal is still not received after sending the repeated disconnection signal, an alarm will be generated. The answer signal indicates that the callee picks up the phone. It is a backward signaling sent by the incoming trunk. The clear signal indicates that the callee hangs up. It is a backward signaling sent by the incoming trunk from the terminal office to the original office in relay. The release control signal is a backward confirmation signal of the disconnection signal. It indicates that the caller of the originating office releases. The blocking signal is a backward signaling sent by the incoming trunk of the incoming office, indicating that the trunk has been blocked. The re-ringing signal is a forward operator signaling. After the toll office operator establish call connection with the callee and the callee answers, if the callee hangs up and the operator need to call the callee, the operator can send the re-ringing signal. The forced disconnection signal is also a forward operator signal. When the toll office operator tries to connect the call, and finds that the callee is engaged in a local call, the operator will send the signal after receiving confirmation from the callee. The ringback signal is a backward operator signaling. It is sent by the operator back to the caller. The forced release signal is used in the following case. In a bi-directional trunk circuit, sometimes it is occupied in both direction due to disturbances. If no register signaling is received in 15 seconds, one end will send a forward forced release signal (acting as a release signal), and the other end will send a backward forced release signal (acting as a release control signal), and the trunk circuit is released.

Digital Line Signaling


The line signaling monitors the occupation, release, and blocking state of the trunk lines. To support transmission of 30 voice channel line signaling in the PCM system, a multiframe concept is introduces. A multiframe consists of 16 individual frames, each of which is 125 s and contains 32 timeslots. A multiframe has 16 TS16. In the TS16 of the frame 0, the first four

bits are used for synchronization in the multiframe, the last four bits are used for loss-of-synchronization report, and the TS16 of the other 15 frames are used to transmit the line signaling of the 30 voice channels. Table 14-6 describes the usage of TS16 in a PCM multiframe.

TS16 of other frames A 30-voice-channel PCM system sends the line signaling by sampling and transmitting the TS16 in a multiframe. There are four bita, b, c, and davailable in both transmission directions for each voice channel. Only the first three bits are used for both the forward signaling and the backward signaling. The bit af, bf, and cf are for the forward signaling, and the ab, bb, and cb are for the backward signaling. Table 14-7 and Table 14-8 list the meaning of the signaling.

14.2.3 Register Signaling


Definition of Register Signaling
The R2 register signaling is in multiple frequency control (MFC) mode. It is divided into two typesforward signaling and backward signaling. In the register signaling, the forward signaling and backward signaling are both consistent. The forward signaling transmits addresses and controls indications, while the backward signaling confirms and controls a call. When sending a digit, the sending party will not stop sending the forwarding signaling until having received a backward confirmation. Similarly, the receiving end will not stop sending backward signaling until having detected that the peer end stops sending forwarding signaling. As shown in Figure 14-10, the transmission of R2 register signaling is done in four beats.

Operations The originating office sends the first bit of forwarding signaling. The terminating office (receiving end) receives and identifies the forwarding signaling, and returns the first bit of backward confirmation signaling. The terminating office thus replies that it has received the forwarding signaling, and informs what specific forwarding signaling the originating office shall next send. The originating office receives and identifies the backward confirmation signaling, and stops sending the forward signaling. The terminating office detects that the peer end stops sending the forward signaling, and stops sending the backward confirmation signaling. When the originating office detects that the peer end stops sending the backward confirmation signaling, it starts the second control period by sending the next bit of forwarding signaling.

Types and Meanings MFC Register Signaling


As described in the above, the MFC register signaling falls into two types: forward and backward. Both forward signaling and backward signaling have two sub-types: group I and group II for the forward signaling, and group A and group B for the backward signaling. Group A is the acknowledgement of group I, and group B the acknowledgement of group II. Table 14-12 lists the meanings of the four groups of signaling.

Note: For a local office using the step-by-step system, there are 10 user types; for a stored program control (SPC) local office using the crossbar system, there are 15 user types.

Forward group I signaling Forward group I signaling consists of connection control signaling and digital signaling. For details, refer to Table 14-13 and Table 14-15. Table 14-13 Forward group I signaling Type KA Meaning It refers to the caller type signaling sent from the originating local office to the originating toll office or originating international switching center in the forward direction. The purpose of this signaling is to provide the charging type (periodical, immediate, free) and user level (ordinary, high priority) information. The combination of these two kinds of information is indicated with a KA code, as shown in Table 14-14. The high priority user in the table refers to those whose calls take precedence over others in the case of network blocking or overload. KC It refers to the connection control signaling sent between toll offices in the forward direction. This signaling has the functions of ensuring the communication quality of high-priority users, completing specified calls, and connecting other specified calls (for example, test calls). It refers to the connection control signaling sent from the terminating toll office to the terminating local office and between local offices in the forward direction. There are two types of KE signaling, as shown in Table 14-14.

Type Digital signaling

Meaning It is a selection signaling. The ten digits, 1, 2, 3, , 0, are used to indicate the calling number, called area code and called number; "15" is used to separate the calling number and called number, indicating the end of the calling number.

Backward group A signaling Backward group A signaling is the MFC signaling of forward group I signaling. It controls and acknowledges forward group I signaling. For details, refer to Table 14-14 and Table 14-15. Table 14-14 Backward group A signaling Type A1, A2, A6 Meaning These three kinds of signaling together are called code-sending sequence control signaling. They control the code-sending sequence of forward digital signaling. A3 is a conversion control signaling for differentiating forward group I from forward group II, and backward group A from backward group B. In the toll incoming register at the local office end in the connection from the terminating toll office to the local office, or in the multiple frequency incoming register of the local call connection, A3 signaling is the control signaling. In other cases, A3 signaling is a pulse (15030 ms) signaling. They are the cause analysis signaling when connection to the callee fails. A4 indicates busy, and A5 an unallocated number.

Transit office

Terminating office

In Figure 14-12, the called number is PQRABCD, in which PRQ is the office directional number, and ABCD is the user number. The figure shows that line signaling and register signaling are sent segment by segment. After the transit office receives PQR completely, it starts routing to send register signaling of the originating office. After sending the full number, the originating office waits for the terminating office to send the A3 signal, and then completes the signaling flow. This connection mode takes a long time. Therefore, it is used when the transmission line is of a poor quality.
