    CCS is an out-of-band signaling technique that allows faster communication between nodes in the PSTN compared to in-band signaling. It supports signaling data rates from 56 kbps to multiple megabits per second. SS7 is a widely used signaling protocol that interconnects most cellular networks. It uses packets to exchange signaling information between nodes in a connectionless manner. The MTP ensures reliable transfer of signaling messages between nodes by implementing error detection and correction across three levels.

    Common channel signalling

    CCS is an out-of-band signaling technique which allows much faster communications


    between two nodes within the PSTN. CCS supports signaling data rates from 56 kbps to
    many megabits per second. Thus, network signaling data is carried in a seemingly parallel,
    out-of-band, signaling channel while only user data is carried on the PSTN

    The Distributed Central Switching Office for CCS


    As shown in Figure , the CCS network architecture is composed of geographically distributed
    central switching offices, each with embedded switching end points (SEPs), signaling transfer
    points (STPs), a service management system(SMS)

    The MSC provides subscriber access to the PSTN via the SEP. The SEP implements a stored-
    program-control switching system known as the service control point (SCP) that uses CCS to
    set up calls and to access a network database. The SCP instructs the SEP to create billing
    records based on the call information. The STP controls the switching of messages between
    nodes in the CCS network. The SMS contains all subscriber records. The DBAS is the
    administrative database that maintains service records and investigates fraud throughout the
    network.

    Signaling System No. 7(SS7)


    The SS7 signaling protocol is widely used for common channel signaling between
    interconnected networks . SS7 is used to interconnect most of the cellular MSCs.
    Network Services Part (NSP)
    The NSP provides ISDN nodes with a highly reliable and efficient means of exchanging
    signaling traffic using connectionless services. The SCCP in SS7 actually supports packet
    data network interconnections as well as connection oriented networking to virtual circuit
    networks. The NSP allows network nodes to communicate throughout the world without
    concern for the application or context of the signaling traffic.

    Message Transfer Part (MTP)


    The function of the MTP is to ensure that signaling traffic can be transferred and delivered
    reliably between the end-users and the network. MTP is provided at three levels. Signaling
    data link functions (MTP Level 1) provide an interface to the actual physical channel over
    which communication takes place.

    It provides a reliable link for the transfer of traffic between two directly connected signaling
    points. Variable length packet messages called message signal units (MSUs), are defined in
    MTP Level 2. A wide range of error detection and correction features are provided in MTP
    Level 2.

    MTP level 3
    Signaling network functions (MTP Level 3) provide procedures that transfer messages
    between signaling nodes. Signaling network management allows the network to reconfigure
    in case of node failures, and has provisions to allocate alternate routing facilities in the case
    of congestion or blockage in parts of the network.
    Signaling Connection Control Part (SCCP)
    The signaling connection control part (SCCP) provides enhancement to the addressing
    capabilities provided by the MTP. While the addressing capabilities of MTP are limited in
    nature, SCCP uses local addressing based on subsystem numbers (SSNs) to identify & users
    at a signaling node. SCCP also provides the ability to address global title messages, such as
    800 numbers or non billed numbers. The SS7 User Part, the SS7 user part provides call
    control and management functions and call set-up capabilities to the network. These are the
    higher layers in the SS7 reference model, and utilize the transport facilities provided by the
    MTP and the SCCP. The S87 user part includes the ISDN user part(ISUP), the transaction
    capabilities application pan (TCAP) and the operations maintenance and administration part
    (OMAP). The telephone User part (TUP) and. the data user part (DUP) are included in the
    ISUP.

    Integrated Services Digital Network User Part (ISUP)


    The ISUP provides the signaling functions for carrier and supplementary services for voice,
    data, and video in an ISDN environment. ISUP uses the MTP for transfer of messages
    between different exchanges. In addition, closed user groups, calling line identification, and
    call forwarding services are provided

    Operation Maintenance and Administration Part (OMAP)


    The OMAP functions include monitoring, coordination, and control functions to ensure that
    trouble free communications are possible.
