A METHOD FOR SELECTING AN A-INTERFACE RESOURCE IN A MOBILE COMMUNICATION SYSTEM

摘要

A preferred A-interface resource on a first connection leg is determined by a mobile switching center server based on information on capabilities of a base station subsystem and on characteristics of second connection leg of a connection. A request message is transmitted to the base station subsystem, which requests a connection according to the preferred A-interface resource. The request message is processed by the base station subsystem and an A-interface resource is selected for the user plane connection.
