Functions (TAF) integral to a Mobile Termination (MT) which enables the attachment of asynchronous
terminals to a MT (see GSM 04.02 [4]). The general aspects of Terminal Adaptation Functions are
contained in GSM 07.01 (ETS 300 913) [7]. This ETS covers support of these services for the following
interfaces and procedures:
(i) V.14 procedures
(ii) V.21 DTE/DCE interface
(iii) V.22bis DTE/DCE interface
(iv) V.23 DTE/DCE interface
(v) V.32 DTE/DCE procedures
(vi) I.420 S interface
(vii) V.25bis signalling procedures
(viii) V.25ter signalling procedures
The asynchronous data rates between the MT and the TE2 are defined in GSM 02.02 (ETS 300 904) [2].

Description”
1.3 Abbreviations
Abbreviations used in this ETS are listed in GSM 01.04 (ETR 350) [1].
2 Reference Configuration
GSM 07.01 (ETS 300 913) [7] and GSM 04.02 [4] describe the basic reference configurations.
2.1 Customer Access Configuration
This configuration is as shown in figure 1 of GSM 04.02 [4]. This ETS specifically refers to the Mobile
Terminations (MTs) which support terminals of the type TE1 and TE2 with asynchronous capabilities. The
TAF is functionally a part of an MT1, MT2 or MT0 with an integral asynchronous data capability.
2.2 Terminal Adaptation Function (TAF)
The TAF provides facilities to allow manual or automatic call control functions associated with alternate
speech/data, speech followed by data and circuit switched services. The following functions are also
included:
- Conversion of electrical, mechanical, functional and procedural characteristics of the V series and
ISDN type interfaces to those required by the PLMN.
- Bit rate adaptation of the V series data signalling rates and the ISDN 64 kbit/s to that provided in the
PLMN.
- The mapping functions necessary to convert automatic calling and/or automatic answering
procedures of recommendation V.25 bis or V.25 ter and parameters for asynchronous operation.
- The mapping functions necessary to convert S interface signalling to the PLMN Dm channel
signalling.
- Flow control (in some cases resulting in non-transparency of data as described in subclause 4.3).
- Layer 2 Relaying (see annex A).
- In-call modification function.
- Synchronization procedure, which means the task of synchronizing the entry to and the exit from
the data transfer phase between two user terminals. This is described in GSM 07.01
(ETS 300 913) [7].
- Filtering of channel control information as described in GSM 07.01 (ETS 300 913) [7].
- Terminal compatibility checking.
- Splitting and combining of the data flow in case of multislot data configurations.
3 Terminal Adaptation Functions for transparent services
GSM 03.10 [3] refers to the connection types supporting the transparent services.
3.1 Rate Adaptation
GSM 04.21 (ETS 300 945) [6] describes the rate adaptation scheme to be utilized over the Base Station
(BS) to Mobile Station (MS) link. GSM 03.10 [3] refers to the rate adaptation elements to be provided in
the MS.

SIST ETS 300 914 E5:2003
Page 10
ETS 300 914 (GSM 07.02 version 5.5.1): July 1998
3.1.1 Rate Adaptation - V series
This is provided as indicated in GSM 04.21 (ETS 300 945) [6].
3.1.2 Rate Adaptation - S Interface (I.420)
The ISDN rate adapted frame format is modified to the PLMN rate adapted format as indicated in
GSM 04.21 (ETS 300 945) [6].
3.2 Interchange Circuit Signalling Mapping
The interchange circuit signalling mapping at the interface between the TE2 and the MT shall conform to
CCITT Recommendation V.24 [14]. The signals required at this interface are shown in table 2.
GSM 04.21 (ETS 300 945) [6] refers to the frame structure and identifies the use of the status bits for the
carriage of signalling information.
Status bits (S1,S3,S4,S6,S8,S9 and X):
The bits S and X are used to convey channel control information associated with the data bits in the data
transfer stage as shown below. The S bits are put into two groups SA and SB to carry the condition of two
interchange circuits. The X bit is used to carry the condition of circuit 106.
The mechanism for proper assignment of the control information from the transmitting signal rate adapter
interface via these bits to the receiving signal rate adapter interface is shown below in table 1.
For the S and X bits, a ZERO corresponds with the ON condition, a ONE with the OFF condition.
108 S1,S3,S6,S8 = SA 107
105 S4,S9 = SB 109
106 X 106
TE --- > IWF IWF ---- > TE
3.2.1 Multislot configurations (TCH/F9.6 or TCH/F4.8)
In transparent multislot configurations status bits S1, S3 and the X-bit between the D12 and D13 - in the
ITU-T V.110 80-bit intermediate rate frame - are used for transferring substream numbering information.
The S4-bit is used for frame synchronization between the parallel substreams (ref GSM 04.21).
3.2.2 Channel coding TCH/F14.4
For information on the mapping of the interchange circuit signalling bits in the 14,5 kbit/s multiframe
structure, refer to GSM 04.21.
3.3 Interface Signal Levels
The signal levels at the interface between the TE2 and the MT shall conform to CCITT V.28, or to IrDA
IrPHY physical signalling standard specification, or to PCMCIA 2.1, or to PC-Card 3.0 electrical
specification or to later revisions.

3.4 Call Establishment Signalling Mapping
3.4.1 Autocalling/answering
The mapping of the V.25 bis [11] procedures to the messages of the PLMN signalling in GSM 04.08
(ETS 300 940) [5] is defined in section 5.
a) Auto Calling
This procedure is provided according to V.25 bis [11] using only 108/2.
A subset of V.25 bis is shown in table 3. This subset gives minimum level of control and indication.
During the call establishment phase, i.e. after signalling, call tone according to V.25 bis shall be
generated in the IWF.
An alternative to CCITT V.25bis [11] is to use the ITU-T V.25 ter dial command as specified in
GSM 07.07 (ETS 300 916) [8].
b) Auto Answer
This procedure is provided according to V.25bis [11] or to V.25 ter [12].
3.4.2 S Interface (I.420) Signalling Mapping
The mapping of Q.931 signalling to GSM 04.08 (ETS 300 940) [5] signalling requires the inclusion, by the
MT, of PLMN specific elements (e.g. transparent or not, half/full rate channel). For asynchronous Bearer
services, requests for bearer capabilities not listed in table 4 (or where the "Users information layer 1
protocol" element does not indicate V.110) will result in call rejection.
3.4.3 Call Establishment Manual Operation - Utilizing Alternate Speech/Data or Speech
Followed By Data Capabilities
During manual call establishment, the mobile user shall be able to hear network supervisory tones and
answer tone.
On hearing answer tone, the user invokes the transition from speech to data in both the MS and the IWF.
The mapping for this is shown in section 5.
3.4.4 Call Establishment Manual Operation - Utilizing the Unrestricted Digital Capability
In this case the user will not hear network supervisory tones or answer tone. The data transfer phase will
be entered automatically.
4 Terminal Adaptation Functions for non transparent services
The V.24 interface shall provide inband (XON/XOFF) and out of band (CT106) flow control. The use of
CT133 for out of band flow control shall be implemented according to CCITT Recommendation V.42 [20].
4.1 Data Structure
4.1.1 Data Structure on S Interface
The protocol models for this are described in cases 3a and 3d of GSM 03.10. The data structure will be
according to CCITT V.110.
4.1.2 Data Structure on R Interface
The protocol models for this are described in cases 3b and 3e of GSM 03.10. The data will consist of 7 or
8 bit characters with additional start and stop elements. The 7 bit data can additionally have an associated
parity bit, 8 bit data cannot have an additional parity bit.

SIST ETS 300 914 E5:2003
Page 12
ETS 300 914 (GSM 07.02 version 5.5.1): July 1998
4.1.3 Data Structure Provided by the L2R Function to the RLP Function
See annex A.
4.2 Signalling Mapping
This is identical to the transparent case with the exception of the transparent/non-transparent element,
see section 5.
In addition, the L2R/RLP will give an explicit indication when the link into the connected network is
established. If the link fails, an explicit "link lost" indication will be given. The mapping of these procedures
to the V.24 interface is defined in annex A.
4.3 Flow Control
The passage of flow control information between L2Rs is described in annex A. Subclauses 4.3.1, 4.3.2
and 4.3.3 describe the operation of the flow control mechanisms. These mechanisms apply for all the
non-transparent services covered by this specification, with the exception of Character Orientated Protocol
with No Flow Control which is treated in subclause 4.3.4.
4.3.1 Conditions Requiring Flow Control towards the Network
The L2R function will send immediately a "flow control active" indication in the following circumstances:
(i) If the receive buffer from the radio side reaches a preset threshold (BACKPRESSURE).
(ii) If local flow control is initiated by the TE2 (see subclause 4.3.3 a) or c)). On receipt of this flow
control indication transmission of data from the receive buffer towards the TE2 is halted.
On removal of the buffer congestion or local flow control the L2R will send a "flow control inactive"
indication.
In addition, for the local flow control condition, transmission of data from the receive buffers will be
restarted.
4.3.2 Conditions Requiring Flow Control towards TE2
The L2R functions will immediately activate local flow control (see subclause 4.3.3 b) or d)) under the
following circumstances:
(i) The transmit buffer reaches a pre-set threshold (BACKPRESSURE).
(ii) The L2R receives a "flow control active" indication.
On removal of buffer congestion or receipt of L2R/RLP "flow control inactive" the local flow control will be
removed.
4.3.3 Local Flow Control
Two methods of local flow control are allowed:
Outband
a) From TE2: CT133 shall be turned off to indicate flow control active, and on to indicate flow control
inactive.
b) From TAF: CT106 shall be turned off to indicate flow control active, and on to indicate flow control
inactive.
Inband

---------------------- Page: 14 ----------------------

SIST ETS 300 914 E5:2003
Page 13
ETS 300 914 (GSM 07.02 version 5.5.1): July 1998
c) From TE2: XOFF is sent to indicate flow control active. XON is sent to indicate flow control inactive.
The XON/XOFF characters are extended by the L2R from the data stream and are not sent across
the radio interface. Where XON/XOFF is utilized then the TAF will generate flow control
active/inactive immediately, i.e. the XON/XOFF characters do not enter the transmit buffer.
d) From TAF: As from TE2
If the outband method is used, the L2R will pass the DC1/DC3 characters as data, i.e. no flow control
indications will be generated on receipt of DC1/DC3.
4.3.4 Character Orientated Protocol with No Flow Control
If the users layer 2 indicates Character Orientated Protocol with no flow control then no flow control is
used i.e. the X-bit is not set and DC1/DC3 are passed through as data.
4.4 Buffers
4.4.1 TX Buffers
Data received on CT103 from the TE2 shall be buffered such that if the MT is unable to transfer the data
over the radio path then data is not lost.
The buffer shall be capable of holding the data. Its size is up to the implementors.
When the buffer is half full, TE2 shall be flow controlled as per subclause 4.3.2, unless Character
Orientated Protocol with No Flow Controlis being used (see subclause 4.3.4).
4.4.2 RX Buffers
Data for transfer to the TE2 on CT104 shall be buffered such that if the TE2 is unable to accept data then
data transferred from the MT is not lost.
The buffer size should be up to the implementors.
When the buffer becomes half full, the L2R will send a "flow control active" indication, unless Character
Orientated Protocol with No Flow Control is being used.
4.5 Bit Transparency
V.25bis indications generated by the TAF shall be even parity, even if the parity condition for the user's
application is different.
4.6 Transportation of "BREAK" condition
The "BREAK" condition must be recognized by the L2R function and passed immediately to the IWF. The
L2R will generate a "BREAK" condition to the TE2 on receipt of a "BREAK" indication from the IWF.
Annex A describes how the L2R will transport the "BREAK" indication.
4.7 Data Compression
L2R includes a data compression function according to ITU-T V.42bis that spans from the MS to the IWF
in the MSC. The error correction function is provided by RLP instead of ITU-T V.42. RLP XID is used to
negotiate compression parameters. L2R includes the V.42bis control function especially for reinitializing in
case of break recognition or RLP reset and error indication by the data compression function respectively.
