Fixed Telephony: Signaling
� Network – Network signalling
� Between telephone exchanges
� Initially in-band (Same trunks as voice)
� Out-band in modern circuit switched telephony (Do not
use same trunks as voice)
� Example: Signalling System no7 – SS7� Example: Signalling System no7 – SS7

Fixed Telephony: Signaling System No7 (SS7)
� Network – Network signalling
� Signalling data carried over a separate and overlay packet switched network
� Development initiated in the 80s and completed in the early 90s
� Most widely deployed signalling system� Most widely deployed signalling system
� Used initially for two party voice call signalling
� Then subsequently for other applications such as Short Message Service (SMS)

History (Packet switched based)
Third Generation (early 00s – )� Still digital, but more capacity (X Mbits)
� Packet switching based
� Two main standards
� UMTS
� CDMA 2000
Fourth Generation (2004/2005 – )� Still digital, but more capacity (XX Mbits)
� Packet switching based
� Several radio access standards (e.g. Long Term Evolution (LTE), Wimax)
� 1 Core network standard that enables the co-existence between “old” radio access (e.g. CDMA 2000) and new radio access (e.g. LTE, Wimax)
