SIST EN 300 940 V6.7.1:2005 is the Slovenian adoption of ETSI EN 300 940 Version 6.7.1 for the GSM mobile radio interface layer 3. It specifies the signaling procedures, message contents and information element coding used between the mobile station and the network. The standard is used when implementing or verifying GSM Phase 2+ radio resource, mobility management, call control and GPRS packet service behavior.
What does SIST EN 300 940 V6.7.1:2005 specify?
SIST EN 300 940 V6.7.1:2005 specifies the GSM layer 3 procedures and data structures that control radio access, mobility, calls and packet services. It focuses on how the mobile station and the network exchange signaling messages and react to them in normal and abnormal cases.
The scope highlights CC procedures for CCBS recall, messages and information elements for CCBS recall, MM procedures for CCBS recall, structured procedures for CCBS recall, Section 8 error handling, call control timers for CCBS recall, indication of CCBS possible, GPRS RR sub-layer behavior, GPRS session and mobility management, new call state values, and network controlled allocation of GPRS resource. It also includes the GPRS-related updates listed in the scope note, such as packet downlink assignment, radio priority signaling for MO SMS and clarifications to GMM, PDP address coding and READY timer negotiation.

What are the key requirements of SIST EN 300 940 V6.7.1:2005?
Radio Resource control
SIST EN 300 940 V6.7.1:2005 defines the RR procedures that move a device between idle, dedicated, group receive, group transmit, packet idle and packet transfer modes. In practice, this is the part that controls when a terminal can access the network, stay on a channel, or be moved to another channel.
Clause 3 covers immediate assignment, paging, service request and contention resolution, measurement reporting, handover, frequency redefinition, ciphering mode setting, additional channel assignment, partial release, classmark change, classmark interrogation, channel assignment, RR release, assignment to PDCH and RR-Network Commanded Cell Change Order. These procedures matter because they are the basic tools for maintaining service while the network changes radio resources.
Clause 3.5 adds packet paging, packet access and packet downlink assignment using CCCH for temporary block flow establishment. This is important for GPRS because it describes how packet access starts before a packet data channel is fully assigned.
Mobility Management and GPRS Mobility Management
Clause 4 defines the MM and GMM state behavior for the mobile station and the network. It covers MM sublayer states, GMM states, and the coordinated handling of GSM and GPRS services.
The key MM procedures are TMSI reallocation, authentication, identification, IMSI detach, abort, MM information, location updating, periodic updating, IMSI attach and MM connection establishment and release. In practice, these procedures control identity, registration and the basic signaling link used for services such as call setup and location management.
The GPRS-specific procedures in clause 4.7 include attach, detach, routing area updating, P-TMSI reallocation, authentication and ciphering, identification, paging for GPRS and non-GPRS services, GMM information, anonymous access support, and the handling of READY timer behavior and lower-layer failure. This is the packet mobility part that keeps GPRS devices reachable and registered as they move.
Call Control and CCBS
Clause 5 defines circuit-switched Call Control, including call states, mobile originating and mobile terminating call establishment, network initiated MO call for CCBS, call clearing, call re-establishment, and procedures during the active state. It also includes support for Dual Services and user-initiated service level up- and downgrading.
For users and implementers, this means the standard describes how voice calls are set up, connected, cleared and recovered after radio problems. It also covers in-band tones and announcements, status enquiry, and DTMF protocol control, which are the signaling steps behind keypad tones and call progress handling.
Packet session support
Clause 6 defines Session management for packet services. It covers session management states and the procedures for PDP context activation, modification and deactivation, as well as AA PDP context activation and deactivation.
In practice, this is the part that defines how packet data service parameters are negotiated and released. It is the basis for bringing a packet data session up, changing it, and closing it in a controlled way.
Error handling, message content and timers
Clause 8 defines how the protocol reacts to unknown transaction identifiers, unknown message types, mandatory IE errors, unknown or unforeseen information elements, syntax errors in optional information elements and semantically incorrect contents. This matters because devices must reject or recover from malformed signaling in a predictable way.
Clauses 9 to 11 define the message contents, the general message format, information element coding, and the timers and counters used by RR, MM, GMM, CC and session management. These clauses are what engineers use to build parsers, encoders and test cases.
What terms does SIST EN 300 940 V6.7.1:2005 define?
- Radio Resource (RR) is the layer 3 function that manages access to radio channels, paging, assignment, handover and release.
- Mobility Management (MM) is the signaling function that handles location updating, authentication, identification and IMSI attach or detach for circuit-switched service.
- GPRS Mobility Management (GMM) is the packet-service mobility function that handles GPRS attach, routing area updating, P-TMSI handling and GMM state changes.
- Circuit-switched Call Control (CC) is the set of procedures that establishes, maintains and clears voice and other circuit-switched calls.
- Temporary Mobile Subscriber Identity (TMSI) is the temporary identity used in MM procedures to avoid repeated use of the permanent identity on the air interface.
- Packet Temporary Mobile Subscriber Identity (P-TMSI) is the temporary identity used by GMM and session procedures for GPRS services.
- Packet Data Protocol (PDP) context is the session management context that carries the parameters for a packet data connection, including the access point name and packet data protocol address.
Who uses SIST EN 300 940 V6.7.1:2005?
SIST EN 300 940 V6.7.1:2005 is used by mobile station manufacturers, GSM/GPRS network equipment vendors and protocol software developers. They use it to implement signaling between the handset and the network side of the interface.
It is also used by conformance test laboratories, interoperability testers and quality teams checking that devices follow the expected call, mobility and packet-service behavior. Network operators and buyers use it when they need to compare equipment support for GSM Phase 2+ procedures, GPRS behavior, CCBS recall and related protocol features.
What does the SIST EN 300 940 V6.7.1:2005 document contain?
SIST EN 300 940 V6.7.1:2005 contains clause-by-clause procedure descriptions for radio resource management, mobility management, call control and GPRS session management. The procedures are written from both the mobile station side and the network side, which makes the document useful for implementation and interoperability testing.
It also contains structured examples of procedures, detailed message definitions and information element coding rules. Those parts are what engineers use when building or checking signaling messages, encoders and decoders.
The annexes add practical reference material: compatibility checking, principles for arranging information in messages, coding examples for speech, modem access and facsimile, cause code groupings, and an encoding/decoding algorithm with an example. The final clauses list the system timers and counters that drive protocol behavior during real network operation.
