The Packet Data Convergence Protocol (PDCP) from Aricent helps
OEMs build UE and RNC faster and at lower cost. It maps higher-level
protocol characteristics onto the characteristics of the underlying
radio-interface protocols, providing protocol transparency
for higher-layer protocols. PDCP provides protocol control
information compression.
Stack Architecture
Aricent PDCP provides message based software interface
with following components of UTRAN:
- PDCP User
PDCP User Interface is used for the PDCP SDU delivery.
- Radio Resource Control (RRC)
RRC Interface is used for configuration, reconfiguration,
relocation, and release of individual PDCP entities related
to different radio bearers.
- Radio Link Control (RLC)
RLC interface is used to transfer the PDCP SDUs to the peer
entity.
- System Management Entity (SME)
This interface is used by the SME for initialization of
the PDCP layer. It is also used for statistics and traces
management of the PDCP layer.
