The FAGW receives the SIP messages and then parses the
Al parameters. So, the FAGW should provide a decision
function to determine what kinds of AI parameters exist. The
SIP layer delivers the messages of the Al interface related to
Call Control (cq, Radio Resource management (RR), and
Mobility Management (MM). In fact, an FAGW should support
a lot of femtocells through SIP signaling. And as a transport
layer protocol, User Datagram Protocol (UDP) is used.
Fig. 2 shows the proposed femtocell network architecture
and its protocol stack. This network refers to the IP transport
layer of 3GPP2 lOS and interoperates with the existing MSC.
Its interoperability with the MSC is similar to that of the basic
SIP-based architecture. Since the A2-bearer's interface delivers
the network data traffic through the RTP, it is basically the
same as that of the SIP-based signaling. The lx CDMA
femtocell network architecture proposed in this paper
minimizes the modification of the legacy CDMA core network,
and the FAGW is recognized as one of the BSCs. Therefore,
the femtocell network can be installed without any
modification to the existing communication network. Fig. 3
shows the proposed Al femtocell network and the legacy
CDMA network. This femtocell network configuration enables
rapid deployment of femtocells.
