Node B • Standardization term (normally called as Base Station) 

• Comparable to Base Transceiver Station in GSM 

• Responsible for Air Interface Layer 1 • Key Node B Functions: • Modulation and spreading • RF Processing • Inner­loop power control • Rate matching • Macro diversity combining/splitting inside Node B

Radio Network Controller (RNC) •Comparable to Base Station Controller in GSM • Responsible for L2 processing of user data • Responsible for Radio Resource Management • Key RNC Functions: • Closed loop power control • Handover control • Admission control • Code allocation • Packet scheduling • Macro diversity combining/splitting over number of •  Node Bs

Logical role of RNC •RNC controlling one Node B is indicated as ControllingNRC (CNRC) 

• RNC that is in charge of controlling a mobile is called serving NRC (SNRC) 

• Any other RNC controlling a cell used by the mobile is called drift RNC (DRNC). It can perform macro diversity combining and splitting of the signals. It does not perform layer 1 processing of the user plane, but instead routes the data transparently via Iur and Iub.

Interfaces of UTRAN • Iub is the interface between Node B and RNC – Unlike in Abis ­interface of GSM interface Iub is open interface and allows the interoperability of different vendors Node­Bs and RNCs. 

• Iur denotes the interface between two RNCs and it is utilized to relay data and control information in case of intra­RNS handover. 

• Iu­interface connects UTRAN to CN • It is notable that the single interface deals with both CS and PS traffic

UMTS protocol internetworking architecture 

• Transport network layer is responsible for providing a general purpose transport service (user data and control data) for all UMTS network elements. – Physical layer in Uu interface is WCDMA – Physical layer fixed network side is based either on pleisochronous or synchronous digital hierarchy (PLH/SDH) • Radio network layer protocols ensure internetworking between UE and CN on all radio access bearer related aspects. • System network layer protocols extend from UE until the transit network edge of CN. They ensure internetworking on UMTS communication service related aspects.

• Layers can further be divided into – Planes: • Control plane: All protocols dealing with control aspects. 

• User plane: All protocols dealing with user data transfer. 

– Domains • Circuit switched (CS) • Packet switched (PS)
