Abstract
Providing advanced network services to subscribers in fixed and mobile cellular networks requires enhanced call control and network features as well as mobility management. The support of these requirements necessitates a solution based on the Intelligent Network concept. For example, in cellular and microcellular networks as well as in fixed networks, subscriber mobility may require multiple database lookups and additional facilities to locate, register and authenticate users. The signalling load and the real time performance may be significantly hampered without the proper architecture. In this paper, we will address the important issues in network control assuming an architectural framework based on the intelligent network. We will consider representative control functions of mobile networks within the framework of this architecture and discuss control traffic behavior and performance.
