Figure 3 Architectural Overview
5.2 Layered Views
There are three important views of an RBS node, each showing a specific
aspect and containing several layers:
• Platform View,
see page 12
• Traffic control view,
see page 13
• Management view,
see page 13
Platform View
The platform view consists of two layers:
• The common platform layer isolates the application program layer from the
implementation details of the processor and ATM platform. This makes it
possible to change the processor and ATM parts without having to modify
the application program.
A standard web browser is used for RBS management through the element
manager. The platform layer supports the Element Manager (EM) by
providing common platform support functions such as a graphical interface,
Java applet communication and online context sensitive help.
