scope:

The present document provides test suite structure and test purposes for Functional tests for a Terminal Equipment implementing the Short Message Service (SMS) for PSTNASDN, UBS Protocol 1 according to ES 201 912 [1].

Basic ISDN or PSTN call procedures apply in order to establish a circuit-switched band connection between such Terminal Equipment and an SM-SC. Tests for these procedures are outside the scope of the present document, although some parameters related to these procedures are used (e.g. SME subaddressing). UBS1 terminals send and receive Data Link messages in the voice-band connection using the FSK signalling as defined in EN 300 659-2 [5] and ES 200 778-2 [8]. Tests for the FSK signalling are outside the scope of the present document. Tests for Data Link Layer have been treated in ES 202 912-2 [10].

Terminal Equipment implementing the Short Message Service (SMS) for PSTNASDN according to UBS Protocol 1 are required to implement the Transfer Layer according to ES 201 912 [1]. The Remote Single Layer Embedded Test Method (see ISO/IEC 9646-2 [13]) is used for the UBS Protocol 1 Transfer layer.

Figure 1 gives an overview of the reference architecture used for the UBS Protocol 1 operation. Figure 2 shows the configuration used for testing.

ISO/IEC 9646-1 [12] and ISO/IEC 9646-2 [13] are used as the basis for the test specification methodology.
