However, pursuant to the ETSI Interim IPR Policy, no investigation, including IPRsearches, has been carried out. No guarantee can be given as to the existence of any IPRs which are, or may be, or maybecome, essential to the present document.ForewordThis Technical Report (TR) has been produced by ETSI Project Digital Enhanced Cordless Telecommunications(DECT).IntroductionThe primary objective of this document is to examine the technical issues relating to dual mode (combined DigitalEnhanced Cordless Telecommunications/Global System for Mobile communications (DECT/GSM)) terminals in orderto guide future work in this area.The substantive clauses of this document are as follows:Clause 5 examines the various configurations and scenarios foreseen for Dual Mode Terminals (DMTs). The followingaspects are considered:-the constraints resulting from the radio system architecture employed;-the different combinations of subscription types that may be used;-the possible network configurations which may be used to support a dual mode service;-the different service packages that an operator may provide to its customers.Clauses 6, 7, 8 and 9 attempt to identify the technical areas that has to be addressed by the TBR for DMTs.Clause 6 addresses the requirements for protection of the spectrum.Clause 7 addresses the requirements for protection of the network.Clause 8 examines general protocol issues which need consideration in order to ensure interoperability.Clause 9 considers the telephony requirements which have to be met.Clause 10 concludes on type approval aspects basic DMTs.PSIST TR 101 072:2000
TR 101 072 V1.1.1 (1997-06)61ScopeTo investigate radio and network aspects and clarifying the possibilities as well as the problems related to dual-modeterminals. This document focuses on possible early implementations and will form the basis for the first edition ofTBR 39 [28] in the sense that it identifies how basic Dual Mode Terminals (DMTs) can be type approved using existingTBRs. For Global System for Mobile communications (GSM), both phase 1 and phase 2 specifications are considered.Basic DMTs are considered to comprise of both Digital Enhanced Cordless Telecommunications (DECT) and GSMparts of which only one at the time is to be active. Advanced dual-mode terminals, where the DECT and GSM parts arefurther integrated or where the DECT and GSM parts can be active at the same time, will be considered inDTR/DECT-010096 [35].The same considerations apply for dual-mode DECT/DCS1800 terminals and for DECT/GSM/DCS1800 dualmode/dual band terminals. The term GSM is considered to cover all the frequency bands, and combinations offrequency bands allowed for GSM type equipment, i.e. P-GSM, E-GSM, R-GSM, DCS1800 or dual band GSM/DCS.NOTE:A terminal comprising multiple GSM parts operating on different frequency bands is considered as a dualband terminal. A terminal comprising both DECT and GSM parts is referred to as a DMT. A dualmode/dual band terminal is a terminal comprising a DECT part and a GSM/DCS1800 dual band part.This document states the assumptions to be made for the first edition of TBR 39 [28] and attempts to identify if furtherdual mode standardization is needed.2ReferencesReferences may be made to:a)specific versions of publications (identified by date of publication, edition number, version number, etc.), inwhich case, subsequent revisions to the referenced document do not apply; orb)all versions up to and including the identified version (identified by "up to and including" before the versionidentity); orc)all versions subsequent to and including the identified version (identified by "onwards" following the versionidentity); ord)publications without mention of a specific version, in which case the latest version applies.A non-specific reference to an ETS shall also be taken to refer to later versions published as an EN with the samenumber.[1]ETS 300 175-1: "Digital Enhanced Cordless Telecommunications (DECT); Common Interface(CI); Part 1: Overview".[2]ETS 300 175-2: "Digital Enhanced Cordless Telecommunications (DECT); Common Interface(CI); Part 2: Physical layer (PHL)".[3]ETS 300 175-3: "Digital Enhanced Cordless Telecommunications (DECT); Common Interface(CI); Part 3: Medium Access Control (MAC) layer".[4]ETS 300 175-4: "Digital Enhanced Cordless Telecommunications (DECT); Common Interface(CI); Part 4: Data Link Control (DLC) layer".[5]ETS 300 175-5: "Digital Enhanced Cordless Telecommunications (DECT); Common Interface(CI); Part 5: Network (NWK) layer".[6]ETS 300 175-6: "Digital Enhanced Cordless Telecommunications (DECT); Common Interface(CI); Part 6: Identities and addressing".[7]ETS 300 175-7: "Digital Enhanced Cordless Telecommunications (DECT); Common Interface(CI); Part 7: Security features".PSIST TR 101 072:2000

Since this document will be read byboth experts in GSM and experts in DECT, this clause tries to clarify some of the vocabulary used. Similar DECT andGSM definitions are not necessarily strictly equivalent, it has been chosen sometimes to use general formulations. If dualmode standards are to be produced, a common terminology needs to be defined.Exact GSM terminology can be found in GSM 03.22 (ETS 300 535 [13]). The DECT terminology can be found in theDECT CI specifications (ETS 300 175, parts 1 to 8 [1] - [8]).Table 1: Comparison of DECT and GSM terminology as used with respect to DMTsDECT termGSM termExplanationPPMobile stationThe combination of mobile termination equipment, subscription identityequipment and any required terminal equipment.Often through this document the word "terminal" is used for those terms.RFPBase stationThe physical equipment providing the elementary part of coverage.The word "cell" is not used in DECT, but often through this document theword "cell" is used for the coverage area of a RFP/base station.Active unlockedscanNetwork searchThe process by which a terminal scans all possible frequencies foravailable networks (Public Land Mobile Networks (PLMNs) in GSM).Often through this document the word "scanning" is used for those terms.Network selectionThe process by which a terminal chooses a network.In GSM a Mobile Station manually or automatically chooses a network(PLMN in GSM) from a list of those detected during Network search.In DECT this process is implementation dependant and uses the activeunlocked scan.Often through this document the words "network selection".Location areaLocation areaA group of cells all of whose broadcast location identities are the same.Location registrationLocation updateThe process by which the terminal informs the network of its presencewithin a particular location area.Both terms are used through the document.Attach/DetachAttach/detachAttach is the process whereby a terminal within coverage area of a systemto which it has access rights, notifies the system that it is operative.The reverse process is detach, which reports the terminal as inoperative(note).Idle lockedIdle modeThe state a terminal is in when it is operational but is not in any transactionwith the network (call, location update, etc.).Active lockedDedicated modeThe state a terminal is in when it has started a transaction with the network.NOTE:There is no procedure over the air interface for detach indication in Generic Access Profile (GAP).PSIST TR 101 072:2000
TR 101 072 V1.1.1 (1997-06)114.1Distinguishing access technology from network typeThe intention of this subclause is to clearly distinguish between the air interface used and the core network providingmobility.The word DECT is used to refer to the DECT air interface or the access network related to the DECT air interface.The word GSM is used to refer to the GSM or DCS1800 air interface and the related access network.The term Access Rights Identifier (ARI) A/B/C is used to refer to a network subscription that can be accessed using theDECT air interface only. It is also used to refer to a system or network requiring only basic GAP protocols or a closelyrelated protocol such as the Cordless Terminal Mobility (CTM) Access Profile (CAP). An ARI A/B/C subscriptioncannot be used to access a PLMN.NOTE 1:The ARI is used by the PT to determine if it has permission to access a FT. Types A, B, C are intended forresidential, business and public access applications respectively. ARI D is specifically intended to be usedin conjunction with DECT/GSM interworking applications.NOTE 2:An ARI A/B/C system or network could be a single FT where the network connection to the FP does notsupport mobility.The word PLMN is used to refer to a network subscription that can be accessed using the GSM air interface. Thesubscription can also be accessed via a DECT air interface by a DMT supporting DECT/GSM Interworking Profile(GIP) protocols (a GIP/GSM DMT) i.e. a PLMN subscription is synonymous with an ARI D subscription. References toa PLMN network have the conventional meaning, but may exclude the air interface access parts.5Reference configurations and scenarios5.1Terminal configurationsA DMT for DECT and GSM is considered to be a terminal with one GSM part and one DECT part that is controlled bya common Interworking Unit which also controls one common MMI (keypad, display and menu functions). A referenceconfiguration for DMTs is shown in figure 1.DECTGSMInterworkingMMIMMI:Man-Machine InterfaceFigure 1: Reference configuration for DMTSome parts in the terminal, such as microphone and loudspeaker, could be reused by both the GSM and DECT parts orcould be implemented in two ways. Integration of the RF parts is also foreseen.Several possible hardware configurations can be envisaged for a DMT. It is possible for example that the terminalcontains two entirely separate transceivers, simply sharing the keyboard, display microphone, earpiece etc. Completelyindependent operation may then be possible, but there will be difficult technical issues of receiver blocking to overcome.It is also possible for parts of the transceivers to be common, reducing the cost of the terminal, but also limiting thepossibilities of simultaneous operation. The exact functionality of the interworking function will depend on the terminalconfiguration.PSIST TR 101 072:2000
TR 101 072 V1.1.1 (1997-06)12The different possible radio configurations may have impact on the networks (see clause 7). The different radioconfigurations will also affect the performance specifications which the terminals may meet (see clause 6). However, itis undesirable to have different regulatory requirements dependent on the implementation of a DMT, and this should beavoided.5.2Specific terminal configurationsFive general terminal configurations denoted as types 1 - 5 have been identified. The essential differences between theterminal types are summarized in table 2. The type 3 terminal is subdivided into a and b categories depending onwhether simultaneous receive is supported.Table 2: Summary of terminal typesTerminaltypeNumber oflocationregistrationsAir interfaceselectionSimultaneousreceiveSimultaneous dual-modetransmit/receiveSimultaneoustransmit11manualnonono21automaticyes or nonono3aup to 2automaticyesnono3bup to 2automaticnonono4up to 2automaticyesyesno5up to 2automaticyesyesyesOf these DMT types, type 1 is the only truly basic type, types 2 and 3 are identified as interesting for earlyimplementations and types 4 and 5 are considered as advanced and for later implementations.5.2.1The terminal can only be location registered through one airinterface - manual switch - type 1This terminal type can only be location registered through one air interface at a time. Switching from one air interface tothe other is performed manually. No automatic or background scanning of the non-active air interface occurs. Thismeans that the terminal will never operate over DECT and GSM/PCN air interfaces at the same time.5.2.2The terminal can only be location registered through one airinterface - automatic scan - type 2This terminal type can only be location registered through one air interface at a time although it shall monitor both todetermine which will give the best operation.Switching between air interfaces is automatic but may be manually overridden.The intelligent scanning algorithm will entail occasionally switching from the active air interface (the air interface overwhich the terminal is registered) to the other air interface to listen for broadcast channels. A decision to switch betweenair interfaces is based on RSSI measurements and access rights. These issues are covered separately in subclause 5.4.2.Two implementations of type 2 terminals can be envisaged. These are:-separate GSM and DECT transceivers;-a single transceiver which is time multiplexed between DECT and GSM.The first is therefore capable of simultaneous reception, and could, for example, be idle-locked to a DECT bearer andsimultaneously perform background scanning of GSM carriers. By contrast, the second implementation has only a singlereceiver which has to be multiplexed between DECT and GSM air interfaces, and in the above example could onlyperform GSM background scanning between points in the DECT multiframe where paging messages might be received.PSIST TR 101 072:2000
TR 101 072 V1.1.1 (1997-06)135.2.3The terminal can be location registered through both air interfaces -type 3The terminal is simultaneously location registered through both air interfaces. However, if the same subscriptioninformation is used on both air interfaces then the terminal (GIP/GSM DMT) shall not attempt to location register onboth at the same time.A type 3a terminal comprises a GSM transceiver and a DECT transceiver, whereas a type 3b terminal consists of asingle transceiver which is time multiplexed between DECT and GSM. A type 3b terminal will inevitably miss somepaging messages. In addition, if a type 3a or 3b terminal enters active communication over either air interface, then theother will be disabled and this will potentially result in additional missed paging messages.This is considered to be a technically simple scenario to implement but it requires advanced tests to be investigated andspecified. Further study of this configuration will not be considered for the first edition of TBR 39 [28].5.2.4The terminal can be location registered through both air interfacesbut can be in active communication on only one - type 4In this scenario, one transceiver may be operational at the same time as the other is scanning (receiving).This could for instance be the situation for a terminal in active communication in the local DECT system, but at thesame time listening for paging on the GSM air interface. Since the terminal cannot respond to paging on the othernetwork whilst still in communication with the first network, this configuration may have little practical value.This is considered to be a technically difficult scenario to implement. Early DMTs are expected to use one of the radioconfigurations previously described. Further study of this configuration will not be considered for the first edition ofTBR 39 [28].5.2.5The terminal can be in active communication on both air interfacesat the same time - type 5For instance a terminal in active communication in the DECT system can receive and accept a call from the GSM/PCNsystem at the same time with the option to switch manually to one of the systems while having the other one still activein a hold mode.This is considered to be a technically difficult scenario to implement. Early DMTs are expected to use one of the radioconfigurations previously described. Further study of this configuration will not be considered for edition 1 ofTBR 39 [28].5.3Subscription configurationsA DMT may contain different subscriptions related to each air interface or could have a subscription which could beused in both the DECT and the GSM air interface.5.3.1Multiple subscriptionsIt is possible to have more than one active subscription at the same time via the same DECT FP. Thus allowing aterminal operating over the DECT air interface and attached to an FP which provides both Private Automatic BranchExchange (PABX) and GSM services, to be simultaneously location registered with its PABX and GSM subscriptionsvia the same DECT FP.It is important that where a subscription can be used on both air interfaces, that the PP does not attempt tosimultaneously register, using the same set of subscription data via two air interfaces. A location registration on a secondsystem, with the same set of subscription data will result in the cancellation of the first location registration.Standardization for DMTs (and associated regulation) needs to allow for the above possibilities.PSIST TR 101 072:2000
TR 101 072 V1.1.1 (1997-06)145.3.2Subscriptions scenariosA terminal that can communicate on several systems needs initially to be able to handle several subscriptions related tothe various networks it has access to. A DECT/GSM DMT will always have one PLMN subscription. In addition to thisit may have one or several GAP subscription.NOTE:A subscription is a set of identities that enables the terminal access to a system or network and notnecessarily a legal contract for charging.A DECT/GSM DMT consists of two parts, a DECT part and a GSM part. Depending on which DECT air interfaceprofile (see annex B) that is supported in the DECT part there are, at least, two different kinds of dual-mode terminalsthat need to be distinguished:-the DECT part shall always be compliant with the GAP but may also in addition comply with the GIP, seesubclause 5.3.2.2;-DMTs where the DECT part is compliant with the CAP or the Integrated Services Digital Network (ISDN)Access Profile (IAP) are from a subscription point of view considered in the same way as DMTs where theDECT part is compliant with GAP only, see subclause 5.3.2.1.Scenarios where the terminal contains identities related to only one air interface are not considered in this subclausesince in this case the DMT acts as a normal single mode terminal (except in the case of emergency calls which iscovered in subclause 8.5). The possibility of a DMT with two or more GAP subscriptions to be active through the sameFP, at the same time is not considered in this document since it does not imply any change compared to ordinary DECTPPs. Neither is the future possibility of having several GSM subscription (with the same operator) in the DMTconsidered.5.3.2.1GAP/GSMThis subclause addresses DMTs where the DECT part is GAP, CAP or IAP (ARI A/B/C) and does not support theDECT-GSM interworking profile (ARI D).If the DECT part of the DMT is GAP only, it shall support at least two ARI class A/B/C subscriptions. The DECTsubscriptions may relate to a private (residential or business - ARI A/B ) DECT system or to a public DECT (ARI C)service.NOTE:The DECT FP may support access to both ARI class A, B, C and ARI class D networks. A GAP/GSMDMT can access only the ARI class A, B, C network via the DECT FT.The ARI class A, B, C network may offer varying levels of mobility. If the system is a single FP then only fairly limitedmobility is available. The FP may be connected to a corporate network which supports mobility, or a public accessnetwork supporting Wide Area Mobility (WAM). The ARI class A, B, C subscription may also allow roaming betweenpublic and private DECT networks (e.g. CTM). All these networks fall within the definition of a ARI class A, B, Cnetwork as used within this document. These different possibilities will have a major impact on the service seen by theuser, and this is considered further in subclause 5.5. From the subscription scenario viewpoint, all these systems are seensimply as a ARI class A, B, C subscription.The GAP/GSM DMT can be used to access ARI class A, B, C systems via the DECT air interfaces as well as PLMN viathe GSM air interface. The DMT has at least two subscriptions, one PLMN, and at least one ARI class A, B, Csubscription. This type of DMT can be used in network scenarios where public, business or residential DECT servicesare combined with WAM through the GSM subscription. Depending on terminal configuration, the GAP/GSM DMTcould be registered in several networks at the same time using different subscriptions. Seamless service provision willnot be possible but operators can support the GAP/GSM DMT with a one-number service.PSIST TR 101 072:2000
TR 101 072 V1.1.1 (1997-06)15The GAP/GSM DMT can operate the following subscription configurations:-one PLMN subscription;-one PLMN + one (or more) ARI class A, B subscription(s);-one PLMN + one (or more) ARI class C subscription(s);-one PLMN + one (or more) ARI class A, B subscription(s) + one (or more) ARI class C subscription(s).All the terminal configurations of subclause 5.2 are relevant to the GAP/GSM DMT.5.3.2.2GIP/GSMThis subclause addresses DMTs which support both GAP and GIP.The GIP is based on the GAP which means that GIP portables can access ARI class A, B, C FPs (if supported by a ARIclass A, B, C subscription in the portable). The GIP/GSM DMT, can access a PLMN network either using DECT/GSMaccess (ARI class D) via an FT with suitable network connections or the GSM air interface, based on a PLMNsubscription.If the DMT supports GIP, the DMT can be used to access PLMNs via the DECT air interface. The DMT needs only onePLMN subscription and seamless service provision is possible. The GIP/GSM DMT cannot be registered via the GSMand DECT air interfaces at the same time with the same subscription, as each location registration via one air interfacewill result in the cancellation of a previous location registration on the other air interface.This type of DMT is used in the network scenarios where PLMN-based urban public mobility services are combinedwith WAM through the GSM subscription or in a scenario where a GSM service is enhanced by a DECT/GSM access.Since the GIP is based on the GAP, the GIP/GSM DMT could also store ARI class A/B/C subscriptions and behave as aGAP/GSM DMT. It can be used in public, business and residential DECT systems as well as in DECT/GSM accesssystems and the PLMN network.The GIP/GSM DMT can operate the following subscription configurations:-one PLMN subscription;-one PLMN subscription + one (or more) ARI class A, B subscription(s);-one PLMN subscription + one (or more) ARI class C subscription(s);-one PLMN subscription + one (or more) ARI class A, B subscription(s) + one (or more) ARI class Csubscription(s).Only the first two terminal configurations of subclause 5.2 are relevant for a GIP/GSM DMT with only a PLMNsubscription.5.4Network configurationsFor the first phase of dual mode standardization, it is assumed that the portable supports at least basic speech services.The connection between DECT access network and PLMN network could be either via an A interface or via an ISDNinterface. Support of other (non basic-speech) GSM services will be considered at a later stage. Clearly when additionalservices are added they need to be supported within the networks. Currently, support for Short Message Service (SMS)and other GSM services, is only defined for A interface.Based on the terminal configurations in subclauses 5.2.1 to 5.2.3 and the subscription scenarios in subclause 5.3.2, theDMT can select and switch to a new access network in several different ways. Depending on the types of the old and thenew access network, the are different requirements on how the DMT behaves. The changes of network that a
