1.1 LTE Network Reference Model

LTE architecture can be described in detail by virtue of SAE architecture. In the SAE
architecture, part function of RNC, as well as GGSN and SGSN nodes are converged
into a new node, that is, the EPC part evolved from packet core network. The new node
possesses the functions of GGSN, SGSN node and part function of RNC. As shown in
Figure 1-1, MME and SAE serving gateway respectively implement the control plane and
user plane functions of EPC. The integral structure of SAE is shown in Figure 1-1.
Figure 1-1 LTE System Evolvement
In Figure 1-1, the evolved RAN part is also called E-UTRAN. E-UTRAN contains a sole
node - eNB, proving the function of user plane RLC/ MAC/ Physical-layer Protocol (PHP)
and the function of control plane RRC protocol. The system structure of E-UTRAN is
shown in Figure 1-2.

functions of previous RNC, including physical layer function (including HARQ),
MAC layer function (including ARQ), RRC function (including radio resource control
function), scheduling, radio access admission control, access mobility management,
and inter-cell radio resource management, etc. The specific functions are:
à Radio resource management: radio bearer control, radio access control, access
mobility management, uplink/downlink dynamic resource allocation.
à IP header compression and user data stream encapsulation.
à Selecting MME during UE attaching progress.
à Routing user plane data to SGW.
à Paging message scheduling and transmission.

à Broadcast message scheduling and transmission.
à Measurement used for mobility and scheduling, and configuration of
measurement report.
l MME function
à Allocating paging message to eNodeB.
à Security control.
à Idle state mobility control.
à SGW bearer control.

à NAS signaling encryption and integrity protection.
l S-GW function
à Supporting UE's mobility switching user plane data.
à Downlink packet data buffer and paging support in E-UTRAN idle mode.

Chapter 1 LTE Network Overview
As shown in Figure 1-2, BSC and RNC in 2G and 3G network are not in the new LTE
structure, but are integrated into NodeB to form eNodeB. The corresponding interfaces
change from previous Iu, Iub and Iur interfaces into new interfaces: S1 and X2. The
definition of interfaces in the E-UTRAN structure is shown below:
l S1-MME
Reference point of control plane protocol between E-UTRAN and MME.
l S1-U
Interface between E-UTRAN and SAE Serving-GW Path switching (during switching)
between each carrier's user plane tunnel and eNodeB.
l X2
Interfaces between eNodeBs, similar to the Iur interface in present 3GPP.
l Uu
