scope:
The present document specifies the procedures used at the radio interface (Reference Point Um, see 3GPP TS 04.02) for the General Packet Radio Service (GPRS) Medium Access Control /Radio Link Control (MAC/RLC) layer.
When the notations for "further study" or "FS" or "FFS" are present in the present document they mean that the indicated text is not a normative portion of the present document.
The present document is applicable to the following GPRS Um functional layers:
- Radio Link Control functions,
- Medium Access Control functions, and
- Physical Link Control functions.
The procedures described in the present document are for the RLC/MAC functions of the GPRS radio interface (Um) when operating on a Packet Data Channel (PDCH).
This ETSI TS provides the overall description for RLC/MAC layer functions of the general Packet Radio Service (GPRS and EGPRS) radio interface Um. Within this TS the term GPRS refers to GPRS and EGPRS unless explicitly stated otherwise.
3GPP TS 03.64 contains an overview of the GPRS radio interface (Um).
3GPP TS 04.03 and 3GPP TS 04.04 contains the definition of the control channels used in the present document.
3GPP TS 04.07 contains a description in general terms of the structured functions and procedures of this protocol and the relationship of this protocol with other layers and entities.
3GPP TS 04.08 contains the definition of GPRS RLC/MAC procedures when operating on the Common Control Channel (CCCH).
3GPP TS 04.64 contains functional procedures for the Logical Link Control (LLC) layer
