scope:
The present document provides the description of the Subnetwork Dependent Convergence Protocol (SNDCP) for the General Packet Radio Service (GPRS).
The user of the services provided by SNDCP is a packet data protocol (PDP) at the mobile Station (MS) or the Relay at the Serving GPRS Support Node (SGSN). Additionally, a control entity, e.g. AT command interpreter, may be an SNDCP user. SNDCP uses the services provided by the Logical Link Control (LLC) layer [4] and the Session Management (SM) sub-layer [2].
The main functions of SNDCP are:
- Multiplexing of several PDPs.
- Compression / decompression of user data.
- Compression / decompression of protocol control information.
- Segmentation of a network protocol data unit (N-PDU) into Logical Link Control Protocol Data Units (LL-PDUs) and re-assembly of LL-PDUs into an N-PDU.
3GPP TS 44.065 is applicable to GPRS MS and SGSN.
