GSM NETWORK STRUCTURE


The network is structured into a number of discrete sections:

* The Base Station Subsystem (the base stations and their controllers).
* the Network and Switching Subsystem (the part of the network most similar to a fixed network). This is sometimes also just called the core network.
* The GPRS Core Network (the optional part which allows packet based Internet connections).
* The Operations support system (OSS) for maintenance of the network..
