GSM Network Architecture

GSM network is technique which allows people to communicate each other from one place to others or from one country to others via Radio Frequency (RF).
GSM network is divided 3 main parts.
1/ Network and Switching Subsystem (NSS)
The network subsystem acts as an interface between the GSM network and the public networks, PSTN/ISDN. The main components of the NSS are MSC, HLR, VLR, AUC, and EIR..
2/ Base Station Subsystem (BSS) 
The BSS consists of the base transreceiver station (BTS), base station controller (BSC) and transcoder sub-multiplexer (TCSM). The latter is sometimes physically located at the MSC. Hence the BSC also has three standardised interfaces to the fixed network, namely Abis, A and X.25.
- MS connects to BTS via Um Interface (Air interface)
- BTS connects to BSC via Abis Interface
- BSC connects to MSC via A Interface  
3/ Operation and Support System (OSS) 
A part to perform operation and monitoring center(OMC), it functions as monitoring alarm and configuration in GSM Network.
