Overview

SIST ES 202 060-5 V1.1.1:2005 defines the network access protocol for delivering Short Message Service (SMS) in fixed telephone networks using a Network Based Solution (NBS). Developed by the Slovenski inštitut za standardizacijo (SIST) and aligned with ETSI frameworks, this standard establishes the required protocol mechanisms between the Short Message Service Centre (SM-SC) and local exchanges, allowing reliable SMS transfer independently from voice calls within Integrated Services Digital Network (ISDN) and Public Switched Telephone Network (PSTN) environments.

This part of the standard is integral for fixed network operators and equipment manufacturers, as it outlines the protocol requirements and exchange procedures necessary for fixed network SMS functionality, supporting supplementary services and future service enhancements.

Key Topics

  • SMS in Fixed Networks
    The standard specifies how SMS is operated and managed in traditional telephone networks instead of solely mobile environments, expanding SMS usability.

  • Network Based Solution (NBS)
    NBS enables SMS as a network function, rather than being dependent on terminal equipment. This ensures message transfer and storage are handled by the network for greater flexibility and reliability.

  • Interfacing and Protocols
    The protocol is defined for communication between SM-SC and local exchanges using Signalling System No. 7 (SS7), Transaction Capabilities Application Part (TCAP), and Abstract Syntax Notation One (ASN.1) for encoding.

  • Signalling and Messaging Procedures
    Procedures are detailed for message submission and delivery, registration, activation/deactivation, error handling, and status reporting between originating/receiving exchanges and the SM-SC.

  • Supplementary Service Interactions
    The protocol interacts with key supplementary ISDN services such as caller identification, call forwarding, call waiting, user-to-user signaling, and message waiting indications.

  • Error Handling
    Mechanisms for reporting network errors (e.g., unavailable resources, invalid numbers, busy lines) ensure message integrity and robust communication.

Applications

  • Fixed Network SMS Services
    Telecom operators can deploy SMS over fixed lines, allowing users on PSTN or ISDN to send and receive messages similar to mobile SMS.

  • Service Providers and Network Operators
    The standard provides a blueprint for developing value-added SMS solutions, enabling competitive differentiation and added-user convenience.

  • Equipment Manufacturers
    Switch and terminal manufacturers can implement standardized SMS functionality in their products to ensure interoperability across networks.

  • Support for Supplementary Services
    Networks can offer integrated messaging features alongside telephony services, enhancing the user experience for residential, business, and special service lines.

  • Migration and Interworking
    Smooth integration and interworking with legacy and next-generation networks, ensuring future-proof messaging capabilities in converged networks.

Foreword
This ETSI Standard (ES) has been produced by ETSI Technical Committee Services and Protocols for Advanced
Networks (SPAN).
The present document is part 5 of a multi-part standard covering the Short Message Services (SMS) for fixed networks;
Networks Based Solution (NBS), as described below:
Part 1: "Overview";
Part 2: "Architecture and functional entities";
Part 3: "Integrated Services Digital Network (ISDN) access protocol";
Part 4: "Interworking between Signalling System No.7 (SS7) and Digital Subscriber Signalling System No. one
(DSS1)";
Part 5: "Network access protocol".
NOTE: The choice of a multi-part format for this deliverable is to facilitate maintenance and future
enhancements.
In accordance with ITU-T Recommendation I.130 [6], the following three level structure is used to describe the
supplementary telecommunication services as provided by European public telecommunications operators under the
pan-European ISDN:
- Stage 1 is an overall service description, from the user's standpoint;
- Stage 2 identifies the functional capabilities and information flows needed to support the service described in
stage 1; and
- Stage 3 defines the signalling system protocols and switching functions needed to implement the service
described in stage 1.
The present document details the stage 3 aspects (signalling system protocols and switching functions) needed to
support the SMS. The stage 1 aspects are detailed in ETS 201 986 [10]. The stage 2 aspects of the SMS have not been
specified.
The present version updates the references to the basic call specification.
Introduction
The Short Message Service (SMS) is a service providing the served user the ability to send and receive Short Messages
(SM). The Short Messages (SM) are exchanged between the sending and receiving user via a Short Message Service
Centre (SM-SC).
ETSI
6 ETSI ES 202 060-5 V1.1.1 (2003-05)
1 Scope
The present document specifies the stage three of the Short Message Service (SMS) for the pan-European Integrated
Services Digital Network (ISDN) as provided by the European public telecommunications operators by means of the
Signalling System No.7 Transaction Capabilities (TC) application protocol. The stage three identifies the protocol
procedures and switching functions needed to support a telecommunication service (see ITU-T
Recommendation I.130 [6]).
The SMS is provided independently of a call.
Charging principles are outside the scope of the present document.
Testing and maintenance requirements are outside the scope of the present document.
The SMS enables the originating SMS user to send Short Messages (SMs) to the receiving SMS user via a Short
Message Service Centre (SM-SC), belonging to the network of the SMS originating user or separated from the network
of the SMS originating user.
NOTE: The SMS is typically used between a Short Message service provider and a user of the Short Message
service provided.
The SM-SC can be connected to the network by SS#7 or behind a NE-SC with DSS1 or other protocols.
