<p>A method and apparatus for operating a wireless telecommunication system utilizing code division multiple access (CDMA) over-the-air with a Global System for Mobile (GSM) communications A-interface based network is described. A CDMA radio frequency (RF) signal interface provides a bi-directional interface to a subscriber unit (50), and a Global System for Mobile (GSM) communications A-interface SS7 transport provides a bi-directional interface with GSM mobile services switching center (MSC) (52). Additionally, a transparent message transport (44) is provided over which signaling messages defined in the GSM A-interface protocol are exchanged between the GSM MSC (52) and a subscriber unit (50).</p> |
