Abstract

This ETS contains the signalling aspects of the base station system for GSM. The set of signalling tests cover major areas of functionality on the air, a-bis and A interfaces, but is not designed to be a complete set of all the possible scenarios. The tests were designed from the set of core recommendations that exist for the GSM network and any changes that occur to these recommendations will be reflected in the test set documented within. This issue contains the addition of multiband BTS tests.
