Hi, I have developed a UMTS core network using a home nodeB (HNB)
which the mobile phones (or UEs) can register on my network and get the
required services such as call service. I have implemented all the
required procedures for call service and I can establish a successful
call for my connected UEs.
In one of the most important
procedures, i.e **Call Proceeding**, I have identified the coding of
speech transferred between UEs and core. Here is my coding options (in
wireshark):
GSM A-I/F DTAP - Call Proceeding Protocol Discriminator: Call Control; call related SS messages (3) .... 0011 = Protocol discriminator: Call Control; call related SS messages (0x3) 1... .... = TI flag: allocated by receiver .000 .... = TIO: 0 00.. .... = Sequence number: 0 ..00 0010 = DTAP Call Control Message Type: Call Proceeding (0x02) Bearer Capability 1 - (Spare) Element ID: 0x04 Length: 6 Octet 3 0... .... = Extension: Extended .11. .... = Radio channel requirement: Spare ...0 .... = Coding standard: GSM standardized coding .... 0... = Transfer mode: circuit .... .000 = Information transfer capability: Speech (0x0) Octets 3a - Speech Versions 0... .... = Extension: Extended .0.. .... = Coding: octet used for extension of information transfer capability ..00 .... = Spare bit(s): 0 .... 0010 = Speech version indication: GSM full rate speech version 2(GSM EFR) (0x2) 0... .... = Extension: Extended .0.. .... = Coding: octet used for extension of information transfer capability ..00 .... = Spare bit(s): 0 .... 1000 = Speech version indication: GSM full rate speech version 5(FR AMR-WB) (0x8) 0... .... = Extension: Extended .0.. .... = Coding: octet used for extension of information transfer capability ..00 .... = Spare bit(s): 0 .... 0100 = Speech version indication: GSM full rate speech version 3(FR AMR) (0x4) 0... .... = Extension: Extended .0.. .... = Coding: octet used for extension of information transfer capability ..00 .... = Spare bit(s): 0 .... 0101 = Speech version indication: GSM half rate speech version 3(HR AMR) (0x5) 1... .... = Extension: No Extension .0.. .... = Coding: octet used for extension of information transfer capability ..00 .... = Spare bit(s): 0 .... 0001 = Speech version indication: GSM half rate speech version 1(GSM HR) (0x1)
So I can see the RTP packets transferred between UE and core. An instance is mentioned here (in wireshark):
