System ArchitectureMobile Station (MS)
In 2G it is known as MS. In 3G systems, It is referred as User Equipment (UE). The Mobile Station is made up of two entities:
– Mobile Equipment (ME)– Subscriber Identity Module (SIM)
![Page 10: Mobile Network](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062305/56814f51550346895dbcf6d7/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
System Architecture- Mobil Station (MS)
In GSM, the Mobile Station consists of four main components:– Mobile Terminal (MT)- offers common functions that are used by all
the service the Mobile Station offers. It is equivalent to the network termination of an ISDN access and is also the end-point of the radio interface.
– Terminal Equipment (TE) - is a peripheral device of the Mobile Station and offers services to the user. It does not contain any functions specific to GSM.
– Terminal Adapter (TA) - hides radio-specific characteristics. – Subscriber Identity Module (SIM) - is a personalization of the Mobile
Station and stores user specific parameters (such as mobile number, contacts etc).
![Page 11: Mobile Network](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062305/56814f51550346895dbcf6d7/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
System ArchitectureMobile Station (MS) -Mobile Equipment
Portable,vehicle mounted, hand held device Uniquely identified by an IMEI (International Mobile Equipment Identity) IMEI can be displayed on most phones by dialing the code *# 06 #. It is not stored in SIM. It is stored in the phone If a mobile handset is lost or stolen, CEIR (Central Equipment Identity
Register) can be contacted. CERI will blacklist the device in all currently operating switches. This makes the lost or stolen handset unusable. Blacklisting stolen mobile handsets is seen as a deterrent to crime. It is possible, however, to change an IMEI with special tools. Certain mobile networks that do not automatically blacklist handsets
registered with the CEIR. Approximately 10% of IMEI's in use today are not unique or have been
reprogrammed (hacked).

Format of IMEI
Mainly two types– 15 Digits or 17 Digits
The IMEI (14 decimal digits plus a check digit) or IMEISV (16 digits)
The structure of the IMEI/SV are specified in 3GPP TS 23.003 The model and origin comprise the initial 8-digit portion of the
IMEI/SV, known as the Type Allocation Code (TAC). Format of the IMEI is AA-BBBBBB-CCCCCC-D AA: Reporting Body Identifier, indicating the GSMA-approved
group that allocated the model TAC. BBBBBB: The remainder of the TAC (Type Approval Code) CCCCCC: Serial sequence of the model D: Luhn check digit of the entire number (or zero) EE: Software Version Number (SVN)
![Page 13: Mobile Network](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062305/56814f51550346895dbcf6d7/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Example: Format of IMEI
35-209900-176148-1 What is the meaning of it. 352099 so it was issued by the BABT (British Approvals
Board for Telecommunications) and has the allocation number 2099.
The Reporting Body Identifier is allocated by the Global Decimal Administrator;
FAC (Finally Assembly Code): 00 so it was numbered during the transition phase from the old format to the new format
SNR: 176148 - uniquely identifying a unit of this modelCD: 1 so it is a GSM Phase 2 or higher
![Page 14: Mobile Network](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062305/56814f51550346895dbcf6d7/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Mobile Equipment Identifier
There are two administrators: – the Global Decimal Administrator (GDA) for IMEIs – Global Hexadecimal Administrator (GHA).
![Page 15: Mobile Network](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062305/56814f51550346895dbcf6d7/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Manufacturer code
Serial number CD
R R X X X X X X Z Z Z Z Z Z C
CDMA Format
An MEID is 56 bits long (14 hex digits). It consists of three fields, including an 8-bit regional code (RR), a 24-bit manufacturer code, and a 24-bit manufacturer-assigned serial number. The check digit (CD) is not considered part of the MEID.
As of August 2006, the TIA acts as the Global Hexadecimal Administrator (GHA) to assign MEID, and the GSM Association acts as the Global Decimal Administrator
![Page 16: Mobile Network](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062305/56814f51550346895dbcf6d7/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Luhn algorithm
The check digit is validated in three steps: Starting from the right, double a digit every two digits
(e.g., 7 → 14). Sum the digits (e.g., 14 → 1 + 4). Check if the sum is divisible by 10. Conversely, one can calculate the IMEI by choosing
the check digit that would give a sum divisible by 10. For the example IMEI 49015420323751?,
![Page 17: Mobile Network](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062305/56814f51550346895dbcf6d7/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Luhn algorithm
IMEI 4 9 0 1 5 4 2 0 3 2 3 7 5 1 ?
Double every other 4 18 0 2 5 8 2 0 3 4 3 14 5 2 ?
Sum digits 4 + (1 + 8) + 0 + 2 + 5 + 8 + 2 + 0 + 3 + 4 + 3 + (1 + 4) + 5 + 2 + ? = 52 + ?
To make the sum divisible by 10, we set ? = 8, so the IMEI is 490154203237518

What is an IMSI?
The IMSI (International Mobile Subscriber Identity) is a unique 15-digit code used to identify an individual user on a GSM network.
The IMSI consists of three components:– Mobile Country Code (MCC) – Mobile Network Code (MNC) – Mobile Subscriber Identity Number (MSIN)
The IMSI is stored in the Subscriber Identity Module (SIM).

New Trends
In random order Mega-trends of Mobile Industry are:1. The threat and possibilities of the Discount Mobile Service Providers,2. Falling profit margins on basic mobile services (voice, SMS) as a result of
competition,3. The use of outsourcing - to minimize OPEX,4. Controlled investment in infrastructure - to reduce CAPEX,5. The use of micro-segmentation (Mobile operators will use sub-brands and producers
of mobile terminals will introduce a wide range of different terminal models),6. Higher marketing expenses – partly because of the use of micro-segmentation,7. Stock Rotation Risk – the result of the terminal producers larger product portfolio,8. New business models in the mobile value chain – the existing business models are an
impediment on economic growth,9. A more complex value chain – a growing number of different players seek the place
in the mobile value chain,10. Mobile penetration vs. SIM-penetration – there is an important difference.

Issues
Environmental Related – About 1.2 billion mobile handsets were sold worldwide. To put
that into context, it means that, on average, more than 3 million new handsets were sold every day last year.
– How to reduce power consumption– How to use solar power– How to reduce CO2 emission.– How to take care of large number of chargers lying with
subscribers. It should be done through regulation It should be done through Innovation Or combination of both Reduction of Hazardous Substances (RoHS) directive Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE) Directive
