1.1 Product Positioning

This product can be used as the large-capacity signaling transfer point (STP) or the independent signaling gateway. When acting as the STP, this product implements all functions of the traditional narrowband STP, that is, processing and transferring the SS7 signaling messages in the PSTN of traditional circuit domain. When acting as the independent signaling gateway, this product is located at the edge access layer of the NGN. It uses the Signaling Transport (SIGTRAN) and Signaling System No.7 (SS7) protocols.

Along with the opening-up of the telecom market and coexistence of multiple operators, the competition among operators is more serious. The competition steers from the simple price to providing high-quality and versatile services, exploring customer potential demands, and
Issue 01 (2011-04-22)

classifying customer groups. The investment focus diverts from equipment to value-added services and network optimization. Customers have more and more choices. In this case, how to provide better and timely services to customers to raise customer satisfaction and obtain better economic and social benefits is the most concerned problem to operators. Under this background, from the viewpoint of cost saving, network reuse, and service innovation, operators put forward more specific requirements on the integration of different networks and service development:

Providing differentiated and competitive services Providing various services to new customers and upgrading services for previous customers Fast introducing new services Making the best use of the original network resources Providing industrial and enterprise solutions concerning customer benefit Reducing maintenance cost
Meanwhile, with the maturity and commercial use of the NGN and 3G network, the previous signaling network cannot meet the requirement of new signaling services. Especially, the previous network cannot support developing some subscriber-friendly and competitive services. To meet service development requirements, Huawei develops U-SYS SG7000 Signaling Gateway to meet the continuous development of signaling network and services, meet the continuous service requirement of customers, enhance comprehensive competitiveness of networks, and realize continuable development.
Basic Signaling Transfer Point
When used as the independent signaling transfer point (STP), the product provides functions such as SS7 signaling transfer, GT translation, message screening, and signaling charging for TDM network nodes. With high processing capability, the product connects large-scale network nodes to simplify network structure and implement centralized management. The large capacity and smooth expansion capability set the base for upgrading the product.

When used as the independent signaling gateway, the SG7000 implements bi-direction signaling transfer of SS7 and SIGTRAN signaling between TDM and IP networks. With high processing capability, the SG7000 connects large-scale network nodes to simplify network structure. The SG7000 provides the signaling gateway function in the IP domain of 2G networks and 3G networks.
IP Signaling Transfer Point

The product provides the signaling transfer function in the 3G networks. the product provides the signaling transfer function in the NGN.
Signaling Service Processing Platform

The product can also transfer data between the switches and special service centers like service control point in the intelligent network (IN) and network management center (NMC). It meets the requirements on the transmission of signaling messages in the following aspects:

Supporting mobile number portability (MNP) service Supporting flexible number routing (FNR) service Supporting signaling firewall gateway (SFG) service
In early signaling networks, the switch and STP are integrated for the sake of cost. The STP in this mode has low capability and handles a small amount of links. As a result, it is used to transfer signaling messages in areas that have low signaling traffic. With the expansion of the telecom network, the demand for signaling interaction increases. The signaling network is separated from the service network, and the independent STP takes the place of the integrated STP. In this way, the signaling network built with independent STPs becomes a mainstream support network. When the signaling traffic is light, the SG can be integrated into the trunk media gateway (TMG) and media gateway controller (MGC). When the services increase, the signaling traffic increases and requires independent SGs. After the independent SGs come into being,

the service processing points, such as MGC, IP-SCP, IP-HLR and IP-SMSC in multiple IP domains can share one SG. The independent SG has the following advantages:

High capacity High performance Convenient monitoring, maintenance, and management over signaling messages High stability High security (dual-plane networking is adopted to achieve network-level backup) Support to rich SIGTRAN protocol stack (easy to extend to IP-STP) Quasi-associated mode for signaling interworking (for various signaling accessing NGN through the STP) Easy network planning and clear network hierarchies (MGC and SG are in the trusted core layer; TMG and AMG are in the public network) Flexible networking

Maintenance Data management Alarm Measurement
2.4 Operating Principles

This section describes the working principles of the system from the viewpoints of the module function and signaling processing procedure. 2.4.1 Module Functions This section describes the detailed work related to each module during the entire signaling processing. 2.4.2 Signaling Processing Procedures This section describes the signaling processing flow in the narrowband network.
2.4.1 Module Functions

This section describes the detailed work related to each module during the entire signaling processing. During the signaling processing, the modules implement the following functions:
The signaling processing unit, LAN drive and IP dispatch unit, and inter-frame interconnection unit communicate with each other through the shared resource bus, and report their status to the equipment management unit. The clock unit provides TDM synchronization clock for multi-frame communication. The monitoring unit, E1/T1 interface unit and clock unit communicate with each other through the serial port cable and report the running status to the equipment management unit.
Huawei Proprietary and Confidential Copyright Huawei Technologies Co., Ltd. Issue 01 (2011-04-22)
2-10

The equipment management unit is used for the communication between the foreground and the background, loading control, statistics and reporting of equipment running status. The monitoring unit is used for gathering environment information inside the frame and information on any abnormal functioning of the boards, and reporting them to the equipment management unit.
2.4.2 Signaling Processing Procedures

This section describes the signaling processing flow in the narrowband network. The signaling messages from traditional narrowband PSTN/PLMN are processed based on the following flow: 1. 2. 3. The E1/T1 interface receives signaling messages from PSTN/PLMN, and directs them to the SG7000 narrowband E1/T1 interface unit. The intra-frame timeslot switching is performed through the TDM switching bus and then sent to the signaling processing unit. The signaling processing unit identifies the destination point code (DPC) in the message and determines whether to transfer the signaling messages to the PSTN/PLMN or the IP network. If a message is to be transmitted the PSTN/PLMN, the narrowband E1/T1 interface unit forwards it. This is equal to the STP function. If a message is to be transmitted to the IP network, the signaling processing unit assembles or disassembles the packet; the LAN drive and IP dispatch unit dispatch it. The message is then transferred to the IP network through the IP interface unit.
4. 5.
The process is reversed when a signaling message comes to the narrowband network from the IP network.

Networking and Applications
This chapter specifies the networking and applications of the SG7000 in different situations. 4.1 Basic Networking Modes The SG7000 can act as the signaling gateway or the independent signaling transfer point (STP). This section describes the network structure of the SG7000. 4.2 Networking Applications The SG7000 is successfully and widely applied to the networks all over the world, no matter being used as the independent STP, signaling gateway, or signaling firewall for the sake of security, or providing the MNP and FNR services, or implementing signaling translation between ANSI and ITU-T.
4.1 Basic Networking Modes

The SG7000 can act as the signaling gateway or the independent signaling transfer point (STP). This section describes the network structure of the SG7000.
As Independent STP (Narrowband)

When used as an independent STP, the SG7000 processes and transfers SS7 messages, and implements all functions of a traditional narrowband STP. See Figure 4-1. In the three-level (HSTP, LSTP, and SP) SS7 networks of China, the SG7000 can be used as the HSTP and LSTP. It provides two types of SPCs, that is, 14-bit and 24-bit SPCs.

Figure 4-2 shows the networking of the SG7000 in a 3G network, in which the SG7000 transfers the signaling between IP ports. The M2PA protocol is used for the communication between the SG7000 and the core network. The M2PA and M3UA are protocols used for IP nodes to access devices in the signaling core network, such as the SCP, HLR and MSC. When used as the signaling gateway, the SG7000 also converts SS7 signaling from the PSTN/PLMN.

Asynchronous Transfer Mode (ATM )
A network technology based on transferring data in cells or packets of a fixed size. The small and constant cell size allows the ATM equipment to transmit video, audio, and computer data over the same network, and assures that no single type of data monopolizes the line. ATM creates a fixed channel, or route, between two points whenever data transmission begins. This differs from TCP/IP, in which messages are divided into packets and each packet can take a different route from source to destination. Thus, it is easier to track and bill data usage across an ATM network. ATM, however, is less adaptable to surges in network traffic. A transmission method in which all nodes can send and receive data at any time except the destination node, which must receive data as soon as the data arrives. See Asynchronous Transfer Mode. A means to establish or prove identity, which can be used to verify eligibility of users, machines, or objects. A periodic storage operation on the data in the database by the system. See self-adaptation.
